Toke Makinwa Likens Failed Marriage To Stumbling Bike, Expresses Happiness In Dating Different Men
Nigerian OAP, Toke Makinwa has opened up on her failed marriage, being single and dating again.
According to Toke, parting ways with her ex-husband, Maje Ayida brought her joy and had also afforded her the freedom to know and relate with other men.
She however likened failure in marriage, being single and dating again to stumbling from a bike and learning how to ride again.
Her words; “It's tricky! It's exactly like learning to ride a bike again but I think I am doing very well.
“Of course you get the initial stumble and fall off but the key is to accept that things are different now and that's ok.
“My first date after my separation, I cried on my way home as I couldn't believe I was back dating again, the stress and joys of getting to know someone again, the excruciating pain of the past and the will to trust another again. I am having a lot of fun right now.”
On people's misapprehension about marriage, Toke said,“People are not honest enough! You are told to keep quiet about everything like showing a sign of 'all is not well' automatically means you have a bad marriage. The thing is, everyone struggles, no situation is perfect and if people walked around with a little bit of honesty about their situation, a lot of marriages might survive. Religion is also a very big problem, God is involved in Marriage and he has also blessed us with the capacity to think and make decisions for ourselves so people need to be less religious and more aware of His love. There will be way less judgement.”
Recall that Toke's 18-month-old marriage to Ayida hit the rocks when the latter impregnated his long-time girlfriend, Anita Solomon.
The 31-year-old had filed a petition for decree of dissolution of marriage to the Lagos state High Court against her husband, Maje Amaju Ayida over adultery, cruelty and irreconcilable differences.
