“If your father recommends s partner for you, you should accept the partner like that. I met my Prince Charming through my dad. Sometime ago, I was talking to my dad, and he told me that he knew a gentleman he wanted me to talk to.”
The bride said that when her dad informed her of the man, she was sceptical and wondered how they could get together.
“Initially, I felt like ‘Who is this? I’ve not met you before, and I’ve not seen you before. Will you be my spec? I had all those running through my mind. We met, spent some time together and then it started getting interesting.”
Even before the two agreed to be a couple, the bride’s father asked his daughter what was going on between them. So, immediately they agreed to date, she informed her father.
“I told him there was nothing going on. Later, when the friendship moved into another stage, I had to inform him. My dad is the link-up.”

“A lot of ladies are crying because they listened to their pastors and parents and whom to date and marry. This has caused a lot of failed marriages. Let people choose who they want.”
@ThisIsNot_Luck said:
“It’s great her father’s match worked out, but let’s be real, this is a different era. Love isn’t one size fits all. Telling women to accept a partner just because their dad recommends him? Even if they’re already in love? That’s wild. A long-term relationship where you’ve built love, trust, and understanding isn’t something to throw away for a stranger, no matter who suggests it. What worked for you doesn’t mean it’ll work for everyone. Let people choose their partners with wisdom, not pressure.”
