Nollywood actress Rita Dominic discusses why she chose to get married later in life.
The 46-year-old actress made it clear that she did not want to give in to peer pressure and that she intended to get married for the right reasons.
She mentioned that although she has gotten to know a lot of good men, they weren’t a good fit for her and she doesn’t push relationships that don’t work out.
Rita Dominic opened up about her marital life and shared insights into her personal journey towards finding true love and happiness.
She characterized her marriage to Fidelis Anosike as pleasant and fascinating, stating that she and her husband had been friends for years before falling in love and marrying.
In her words:
“Marriage is nice and interesting. We were friends for a long time and then we found love, and then we dated and we got married. I wanted to be sure that I was marrying for the right reasons and not for societal pressure. There was pressure for me before I got married, it was for years. I just turned a deaf ear. I always said I would marry the man of my dreams and not the man the society dreams for me because if anything happens to me tomorrow, I would be the one to pack up the pieces and not the society. So I would do it when I wanted to do it and it would be the right time and I believed I did it at the right time and with the right person. I met a number of good people but it just didn’t happen or work out. I don’t believe in forcing things, if it’s not working, it isn’t working. If you aren’t compatible, there is no point forcing things and then tomorrow you are out of it”.
