'I'm afraid of divorce'- Genevieve Nnaji on why she's taking her time

Actress Genevieve Nnaji, says one of the reasons she's yet to settle down is because she wants to get it right, as she's afraid of divorce...
"If I get married, I really want to stay married and staying married is not an easy thing. It means you are completely in tune with your partner. It means you have found your soul mate because you will have to be able to stand a lot of disappointments that would definitely come but then again you have to learn to forgive,” she said.

Taking her time? That could mean taking up to 30, 50years or more.

Why not settle is because you do not know what you wanted from men. Send her a copy of my book title "Power in the spoken word" she will never be afraid of men again.
Men are too are afraid of women more because women can easily destroy men's life and bring men to zero level. You can order for the book too. From. Manchester UK

She's afraid of divorce but she wasn't afraid to get pregnant as a teen. Bish, pls. The type of man she wants doesn't want her. Normal or raz people love her but posh ones don't.

Don't like that this is come from Genevieve of all ppl, always see her as a very strong person...she's stronger than this now
Imagine my cosuin Onyinye Onwugbenu whom Genny has been following about is now engaged..as tough as that gal always form she is....was once wondering if she will ever get married...look at her now...she has dumped all her fears αи∂ noticed age is no longer on her side

Its better to just take †Ñ’ξ step forward cos u don't knw where u will get to
Life is all bout risk....she should 4get Ini's own that crashed, hers may not

The fear of divorce keeps a lot of us away from committing to someone. However, by not committing, you tend to lose a lot of valuable years.

Pick someone you love and can overlook his ills and vice versa, and you are on the part to having a great marriage.

Marriage involves tolerance, care and love, once one possesses these three attributes, you can live happily without a divorce, until death do you part.

My dear Genevieve, it is very easy for one to make excuses for not/failing to do smth. Pls go back to all de interviews you granted in the past and you will come to de realisation that you are only making excuses. Try to overcome ur fears, give a reasonable person a chance n I bet u it will work. Even Queen Bey is married.

Genevieve get married and stay true to it. Nobody pre-plans divorce in a marriage, as no one knows the future of same. If your parents had your kind of mindset, you wouldn't be born. Ask yourself truthful questions; would you live and respect your man inspite of your fame and fortune?. If your parents are still married still date, that's because, one of them has chosen to remain foolish, not because they found a perfect being in the other. Marriage is sweet!
