<p style=”text-align: left;”>WHAT MAKES A WRONG PARTNER?</p>
Few days ago, I wrote “The problems many people are having in their marriages right now stem from getting married to the wrong partner.

You see, when you get married to the wrong partner, your problems in marriage are multiplied exponentially. Better to live in desert than with a wrong partner.”

Then, someone asked, “What makes a wrong partner?”

I found the question interesting and decided to write on it.

So, in this article, I will be answering the question.

I will be explaining who a wrong partner is using different terms.

Before then, let me inform you that, when you get married to a wrong partner, your problems in marriage will be multiplied.

The undoing of some people is the person they got married to, ever since then, their lives have not been the same.

Everything about them went down the spiral, their wealth, health, finance, business, career, spiritual lives and some unfortunately lost their lives.

So do everything you can to marry the right person.

When you do, your problems in marriage are half solved.

What, then, makes a wrong partner? Or let me put the question this way, who is a wrong partner?

✅ Someone that doesn’t love you

Someone that doesn’t love you is wrong person to marry.

Don’t make the mistake of getting married to someone that doesn’t feel anything for you.

You will be taken for granted, you won’t have much attention from the person, you will be irritating or annoying to the person, you will be mistreated etc.

✅ Someone that is not compatible with you

Someone that is not in harmony with you in various areas of your life is a wrong partner to marry.

Someone that is not in harmony with your belief system, convictions, purpose, temperament, health, aspirations etc., is someone you shouldn’t marry.

✅ Someone that is not suitable to you

There are classes and there are sizes. Everyone belongs in a class. There are sizes for everyone.

So someone that is not fitting, appropriate and right for your class and size, your personality, temperament, vision, goals etc., is a wrong partner to marry.

✅ Someone that is not in agreement with you

The Bible asked a critical question, “Can two walk together except they’re in agreement?”(Amos 3:3)

You know the answer. Two people cannot walk together except they are in agreement.

Someone that doesn’t agree with your lifestyle, opinions, convictions, vision, purpose, goals etc., is a wrong partner to marry.

When you marry someone that is not in agreement with you, you are going to have a lot of frictions, conflicts and arguments.

Save yourself the trouble.

✅ Someone with a bad character

Someone with a bad character is definitely the wrong partner to marry.

Bad character manifest itself in various ways, cheating, abuse, insult, disrespect, violence, etc.

When you marry someone with a bad character, no matter how much you love the person, you have just marry trouble for yourself.

✅ Someone that is not the will of God for you

Someone that the heaven didn’t endorse or approve for you to marry is a wrong partner to marry.

Before you marry anyone, try and find out what the heaven is saying.

✅ Someone that is an unequal yoke

Someone that is an unequal yoke is a wrong partner to marry.

What is an unequal yoke? It is someone that is different from your kind or nature, someone that doesn’t believe in what you believe in, someone that is not heading the direction with you, someone with entirely different interests, purpose, aspirations etc.

You cannot yoke a donkey and a cow together. You can only yoke two cows or two donkeys together.

Don’t get yoked with a cow meanwhile you’re a donkey. Otherwise, expect some troubles.

Getting it right in marriage starts by getting it right with the person you marry.

So do everything you can to marry the right person.

Did you get anything from my explanations of who a wrong partner is, let me know what you think below?

Thanks for reading.
