Before getting married

All too often, I’ve known young couples getting married before they’re remotely ready only to find themselves in a twist of drama and worries before the year is out. Some get married from unplanned pregnancies, some from insecure girls wanting to find security and some from girls worried of getting past their shelf life. I know! Isn’t it horrid that society can label a girl as past her shelf life???

For whatever reason a girl chooses to be married, I think that it ultimately has to be that she is in love and loves the boy wholely and entirely and is SO SURE that THIS is the person she wants to spend her entire life with. And of course, that the boy makes her HAPPY. COMPLETELY happy. Not a single micro-drop of doubt lingering in her entire body. And I guess if a girl cannot find that, then she should not marry yet.

But sometimes, you get a girl who is so insecure that she would always have doubts and always have insecurities and always wonder what if? What does that girl do then? Life is a gamble. Marriage is a gamble. There are no certainties of course, but with all the data that she has at hand, she can intelligently calculate her risks and returns. And if she doesn’t know how, then perhaps she should consult with some level-headed beings. Ask 10 friends to play the devil’s advocate and tell her why she should and why she shouldn’t and then ultimately think for herself, if this is really it. Or if she is fooling herself. Because really, there is no point fooling yourself that this is what you want if deep down you know your heart is somewhere else, or waiting for more, because you will ultimately end up being the biggest loser.

This post goes out to all the single ladies out there, waiting for their Prince Charming, searching the globe, dreaming and counting the days. It is never best to settle for anything less than your heart deserves. If you never get married, SO BE IT. It is much better to be single and unmarried than to be married to the wrong guy.

NO MATTER WHAT SOCIETY SAYS.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
Show your support and spread the love!

  1. aiyer… i wrote a loooooong comment and it has error and did not get published! 🙁

    Not gonna write again!

    Can I have the password for the other post?

  2. If only I too had really listen to my heart and not worry about the society. and what others would say.
    Been married for 6 years and never feel so alone. I love my 2 girls to bits but cant say much for the father…
    cest la vie

  3. Guilty to reasons #2 and #3. I was insecure and fast approaching my shelf life. I thought that by getting engaged everything would be perfect. Door closed, happily ever after.

    Then I got cold feet. And began to look at him without the rose-tinted glasses. OMG he’s NOT the one! I can’t marry an abusive man like that! I got to run!

    And to run I did. I am so proud of myself. *pats self on shoulder* 🙂

  4. this is so well written. i’ve always been telling my single girlfriend it’s really not worth it to get married if there’s no strong a “love” feeling between them. for it’s so blardy challenging to live together with someone who WILL be entirely different in some ways or other and having absolutely no control to change his ways. worse still if faced with demanding or ridiculous inlaws, for there is NO SUCH THING as only 2 people involved in a marriage. if not for a strong love bond to hold a marriage together, i don’t know what else can do the job.

    nevertheless, i still believe a woman shouldn’t be entirely expecting or demanding her hubs to make her happy, of course if he does willingly without prompting, it’s a bonus.
