@njeri: Thank you for the kind words. When I wrote this article I was in the midst of quite an emotional roller-coaster and I think our best (and even worst) work comes from this moment of pure, fluid emotion.
Hope you can stay a little longer and give me feedback so that over time I can make this site better.

Mwangi: I am really enjoying ya writing style.
You come across as a person who is willing to try even though you realize it’s not easy. I think ya will make a great husband when you meet the right woman and honestly I wish ya luck.

“The way we go about achieving our goals can sometimes stop us achieving them”- I never ever looked at it like that. Thanks for that. I think the only way I will find my limits is by testing them out, which is what I am doing right now.

Just to be clear though I am not engaged and I am quite far from being engaged but thanks for wishing me luck and I wish you even more pleasure and delight as you journey through life.

Be careful about that obsessiveness. The way we go about reaching our goals can sometimes stop us achieving them. Your woman may feel crowded and overwhelmed by your obsessive nature (this is not a criticism of it).

Intimacy means respecting other’s secrets. You saying everything may be helpful. A pressure for our partner to do the same rarely is.

Wishing you every success with home schooling. The idea that schooling teaches social skills is a joke. If you children participate in sport and other things they will learn lots of social skills – and in a place far less brutal than most schools.

Wishing you and your partner much pleasure and delight.

@caustic: Glad you enjoyed it! I think the key to all this is to “think”. To actually pull back and think about what we want and why, who we want and why. I don’t know if there is necessarily someone for everyone, but I do know that there are those people who as a man you just want and you know you can make their lives better and more fulfilling and they can do the same for you.

This was a good read, I think at times we as humans think too much about marriage and then at other times we don’t think enough. I think there is someone for everyone and when you find that person you will know it.

@gal africana: That whole idea of a male centred church, was something I never thought about until A WOMAN made me think of how most churches are centred around women and don’t have the male or male characteristics in mind. I am definitely thinking a lot about it, or maybe even doing something secular but positive for the fellas while I’m still secular. Those lyrics should be nominated for a Nobel prize why lie.

btw @ akiey, since we are spreading the love, tell me if you remember this one: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2vszJXg0e6M

@akiey: (Blush, guffaw, drawing map of Africa on the ground) Thanks for the kind words, you have made my Good Friday gooder (it’s a word ) and my Easter weekend phenomenal. I think we should campaign for lessons in schools on how this whole relationship thing works because you’re right, it’s a very touch and go, fail a lot and see what works type of thing. I never even thought I would be thinking about the possibility at such a young, fruitful age so maybe the one thing this girl has taught me is once I meet someone am ready to be with, I’ll quickly and without any regrets jump the broom. I was interviewed by a paper today, so you never know, soon and very soon, I may end up being “Mwangi” the author and at least I know now I have at least one member of my PR department
