Nigerian Businesswoman/Mum Tells What Marriage Is All About As She Reveals What Her Hubby Did When He Found Her Crying While Doing Dishes

A Nigerian woman, Jessica Okafor, has shared her opinion on what marriage is all about.

In a post shared on Facebook on Monday, the businesswoman and mum said that marriage encompasses much more than just romantic getaways and cute photos shared on social media.

According to her, marriage is about consideration, understanding, kindness, small and quiet acts of love.

Jessica stated this when she narrated how her husband reacted after he found her crying while doing the dishes because she felt overwhelmed by the demands of being a wife, mother and businesswoman.

Below is her full post…

“One day, I cried while doing the dishes.

Hubby walked in, took one look at me, and without saying a word, he brought out a chair, sat beside me, and started drying the plates.

No questions. No lectures. Just presence.

I didn’t even realize how overwhelmed I was until that moment.

Being a wife, a mother, a businesswoman, it all felt like too much.

And that night, his quiet support reminded me of why I said “yes” to him in the first place.

Marriage is not just about the romantic getaways and cute Instagram photos.

It’s about small, quiet acts of love that speak louder than words.

It’s choosing each other every single day,

Even on the days that don’t feel magical.

So dear wives (and husbands too)

Don’t let society define what love should look like.

Sometimes love is him drying plates beside you in silence.

Or just sitting with you telling a story while you go work in the kitchen.

And that, to me, is priceless.

Keep being amazing. I’m rooting for your home.”
