She may yet tell us that these are defensive wounds which she inflicted when he tried to hit her. Until then, see more of his posts and pictures below...

How Learning to Compromise Has Helped Me Have a Happier Marriage

Posted in: , , , , , ,

By Nkem Akinsoto

Atala and I had a shortish and mostly online relationship before getting married, as some of you may already know. He was in the United States and I was in Edinburgh, and he visited only 3 times before we got married after dating for just about 6 months. I want to add that before then we'd known each other for over a year online, and had corresponded as friends for about 6 months before we started dating. But that may not have much to do with this post I'm writing, or does it?

After getting married, we soon found out that marriage can be very complicated. I've heard people who say the first year of marriage is the toughest, however, ours was mostly filled with happy moments, and added to the happiness we both already had in each other, separately and together. In that first year, having date nights at home all the time, and going out regularly was one handy trick I used :)

Happy 4th of July Everyone! #IndependenceDay Is For BBQ, Fun and Fireworks!

Posted in: ,

#FourthofJuly is a holiday in the United States, and we got the day off work yesterday, with which Atala and I basically chilled out. OK, we went shopping at our local African store and then binge watched Sensate on Netflix. Who else has seen the show, and what did you think, we're currently on episode 9. I want to say too much sex, but that can possibly be a good thing, right? LOL...

Posted in: , , ,

Do you know what it’s like to be at home alone and bored for a really long time? Not a good feeling I tell you. Immaculate and Peter Ezedinma were one of the most lively and fun couples we had on the show! Immaculate was newlywed and new in the city. Soon after her wedding, she became pregnant and was bored of staying home alone all day when she first heard of the Make Me Fabulous show.
