Last night I read a thread on how a man should only marry in his 30s. I am so glad in my 20s we didn’t have social media we actually had to ask men who told us not to follow their mistakes. I started working at 20 & got married at 25.Marrying MaNyoni is my best decision ever
2)When I left home I made my fair share of mistakes, unlike the older generation who grew up before the 70s before AIDS you have to be careful. I remember 1999 at our offices at Pearl Hse S Machel Ave asking mukoma Lawson who was almost 40, this lady almost 10 years older than me
3) She was pressuring me kuti ndoda mwana she already had mumwe who was about 12 years old. Mukoma Lodza said look at me, you see my baby mamas coming to the office with drama, maintenance orders etc, do you want this, I said NO. I now earned 7 times what I earned in teaching
4)I always felt guilty hanging up with girls I had no intention of marrying. I had role models my parents & my relatives. After my 25th birthday I saved money for Lobola & got married to MaNyoni. It gave me structure in my life. Marriage is about being joint project managers
5)2002 we had 2 projects pregnancy & our white wedding. Pregnancy was challenging, no one told me a woman can change when she is pregnant. We survived that. We got our 1st mortgage in Zim that was paid ages ago. No man is an island you need support, that pillow talk is important
6) Next month we are starting a new project our 1st born is starting university. In September we celebrate 20 years of marriage. My wife is my best friend, we don’t agree on everything which is okay as we are different people. We have paid our debts, we are excited for the future
