Whatever we try and whatever we read marriage is a mysterious thing and people getting married are mysterious too. Both men and women are not well-known until they get married and share the life. I've witnesses lots of young couples who have been together for years but couldn't keep their marriage for one year or even less. People act during the relationship, they act something they are not then once they are there everybody brings his/her true colors which can be good or can be bad. I agree with Khadra that commitment should be equal but still people argue the level of the commitment or if this commitment is really happening rather than it being verbal. Marriage is not for love, is not fir kids, is not for sharing life, is not for sex and is not for money. I can say it is for all and one should respect everything that is keeping the family. Marriage can succeed to continue without LOVE and it is happening coz of other considerations. Well, nice read Khadra and thanks for bringing up this issue.

I would love to hear first hand experience on this subject...Thanks, Khadra I heard of a program, islamic one that is, where couples intending to wed would go for counseling before the marriage ceremony…I wasn’t aware large Somali communities had such programs to compate the huge divorce rate experienced in Somali communities living in Western world…Anyone knows someone who might have been to such community program?
