Post-wedding blues

Marriage is a major transition. More likely than not, you will realise your partner may be going through similar emotions. You may also have expected a fairytale ending but get hit by realities of marriage life, says NANCY NJAGI-MBITHI

It was interesting to hear my good friend Mercy, tell me how excited she was as a bride. How the feeling was special: Being the most sort after person for the day. Mercy enjoyed the attention she was receiving; she wished this day would never end. But, come 6pm she caught my attention once again and made me aware that it was all over as the music stopped. The master of ceremony turned off his microphone, guests began sorting their transport back to their homes, and the best couple eager to get Mercy and her husband to their home. Yes, it was all over, just like that!
