Engagement ring, Wedding ring and Suffe'ring!

Quite a lot have been said and written about marriage and relationship. From counselling to talk show, radio program and all that. So I will need not to start repeating whatsoever we may heard or read about the said marriage and relationship related issues.

However, not matter how much experience we may have, directly or indirectly; there are many things we still don't knkw. Huh! Sorry I meant no insult. Just that learning is an endless journey in life. So we keep learning.

Let me introduce you to the types of rings we recently discovered. Huh! I know what's on your mind. Uhmm!... You are almost correct.

We have 3 types of rings which are the engagement ring, wedding ring and suffe'ring.

Engagement ring like we all know is a pre marriage ring. After weeks, months or years in a relationship and you both thinks it has been good so far you have been together. Then the need to take it to the next step comes in.
And one day he just invites you to somewhere conducive and the drama begins. He kneel before you, grab your hand and insert a ring. With a smile on his face while he ask you that long awaited question. "Will you be my wife?"
Of course most ladies will say capital YES without hesitation.

The second ring is the much popular and most honoured one. Wedding ring. So much adorned by ladies. Giving or taken before throng of feiends,family members and well wishers. "Bad belle people dey come a time sha". Even mo gbo mo ya sef.

However, wedding ring is always the precursor to the last type of ring on the list. Suffe'ring. After making vows openly. For better for worst. In sickness and health. For rich for poor. However you are able to manage yourself determines if the wedding ring will turn Suffe'ring or remains and serve as the symbol of union and love.

I don't wanna start talking about how suffe'ring look like. Don't wanna scare you anyway.

To ladies out there who are expecting ring. Be wise and chose properly. But sorry I can't chose for you. What is right for me might be wrong for you.
