When did you last see marriage-related books on a wedding budget?
Isn’t it ironic that we spend more on the event than on the purpose? That’s how we end up with beautiful weddings and ugly marriages.
If a friend or loved one is soon getting married, consider gifting them a
For years, I heard people say, “marry your friend.” It seemed unrealistic. “Friendships take time to build,” I thought. I was wrong, and they were right.
My son, when you encounter these women, run. Do not be baited by their beauty; they’ll label your natural desire for respect as toxic and gang up on you with their friends until you’re broken into a submissive man.
For your sanity, let their liberal souls unite with other
The new episode of bump love screams toxicity. None of the hosts is interrogating the submissions of the guests, all they are doing is laugh out loud. We really Miss Pumla and the old cast.
They invited one of the most toxic men to discuss toxic masculinity🤧
My son, when choosing a wife, please pay attention to her values.
If you don’t party and marry a woman who loves to party, partying will be the source of conflict.
Marriage is a long journey—in fact, it’s a lifelong journey. The more conflict you can eliminate, the better
My son, the desire to sleep with multiple women isn’t a result of the devil.
It’s a survival tactic the old brain devised when men didn’t live long due to diseases, wars, and wild animals.
Men slept with multiple women to increase the odds that their lineages could survive.
My son, if you fail to control what’s between your legs, you’ll give your power to women, and they’ll use it to control you.
A self-controlled man is a powerful man.
Be blessed.
My son, many women were taught, “a man is supposed to take care of you.”
They believe their money is “mine” and yours is “ours.” I say, avoid that lot.
If you desire your family to thrive, I suggest you find a woman who can contribute to its productivity.
Even in the most
The woman’s bait - Part 16 // Marital Drama
Before meeting my wife, I had considered the prospect of marriage but hadn’t yet found the right candidate. I’d heard that one ought to marry their friend, but since dropping out of university, I hadn’t made many new friends.

My son, the seasons of life aren’t within our control. We don’t decide when it rains, and neither do we determine when it doesn’t.
Such is life. Today, the world and its riches might yield to you; tomorrow, they might all rebel against you.
So, when choosing a woman for a
My son, every morning since the beginning of the month, I’ve shared my thoughts to assist you as you choose a wife.
While I’m a highly spiritual man, I focused on the practical wisdom I have cultivated regarding relationships because I believe success requires a balance of the
My son, don’t be fooled into thinking she’s the one just because you are in love. Love is a good start in decision-making, but never forget that love is blind.
Love is a hormone released in your body that tells your heart to beat faster and your stomach to generate butterflies.

After giving my wife a ride, exchanging numbers, and returning to the office, I was excited, shocked, and intrigued. Immediately, I started debating when the right time to text was.

After dropping out of university, I spent days in my bedroom in my father’s house, seated at the computer, hoping to start a successful technology company. I will never forget the day a friend called and invited me to his graduation
The woman’s bait - Part 13 // Marital Drama
At the age of 27, I started life without the covering of my parents. Because I’d dropped out of university, I’d never lived alone. I didn’t know what to expect. It also didn’t help that even though I had no job, I rented a two-bedroom
My son, one day, rain will fall, and one day, the sun will be too hot.
Many people think that life will always be the same. Why don’t we learn from nature? One day, it rains, and one day, it shines.
When life isn’t in your favour, prepare for when it will rain on you because

Usually, on Saturday afternoons, I drive my wife to work and continue doing my business. In the evening, I go past KFC, pick up something to eat, head to her workplace, and wait in the parking lot.
In my past writings, I have seen
My son, when a child receives a new toy, he leaves the old one behind and goes for the new one.
New things are exciting, and because there will always be a new thing, the person who chases new things will never be satisfied.
Isn’t it strange that a man can dump his girlfriend
My son, I’ll let you in on a secret. Women value consistency more than big gestures. A man that finds out how she’s doing every morning earns more points than one who buys her a car on her birthday. A man that leaves kameza money earns more points than one who pays the rent.
The woman’s bait - Part 5 // Marital Drama
Yesterday at 6pm, my wife came to the room and told me that dinner was ready. Every Friday in our household is a fasting day, hence the late lunch. I learned from experience that without fasting at least once during the week, I’d get
Even the best spouse is guaranteed to do something that misses the mark every other day. It's wise for one to separate the incident from the pattern or the error from the behavior. Failure to do so, peace will elude the home.
@RukhShana
My son, most women have a man they look to for guidance. It’s either a brother, friend or pastor.
That man usually counsels and advises them on relationships and other life decisions.
You should aim to be that man in her life. Failure to do so, your relationship will be
My son, the beauty of the woman’s body is a gift of God.
The education of her mind is a gift of her parents.
But her heart, that is her gift to herself. I dare say, don't compromise the heart.
Be blessed.
It makes sense that H. E. President Museveni defended the speaker of parliament, Hon. Anita Among. To understand the situation, you need to zoom into society's nucleus, which is the home.
When the children attack the mother in the home, it would be unwise for the father to
My son, you should know that most women aren’t in charge of themselves. The majority of them are ruled by their emotions.
If they were truly in charge, there would be days in the month they could change, but they don’t have that power; they simply submit.
So, if a lady ever

Yesterday, we received the printed copies of The Woman’s Bait book. On Monday, during our morning meetings, where my wife and I discussed what we worked on the day before and aligned on the day's tasks, I told my wife that we had to
My son, if you don’t possess the wisdom or the experience to advise a woman about her life affairs, she’s probably out of your league.
With a bit of witchcraft and pretending to be what you’re not, you might get her into bed, but beyond that, there’s no future.
She might

One day, while living under my parent’s roof, I went out with a lady. As the night got darker, I waited for her to want to go home, but the request never came. I knew my parents were probably starting to get worried, but my intrigue
My son, success beautifies a man just as good looks and style beautify a woman.
A successful man will intimidate most women just as a beautiful woman will intimidate most men.
However, the man has one advantage: everyone can become successful with hard work and favour.
So,
My son, don’t marry a woman before you have her heart. Most of the women you see, when they have a challenge in life, there is someone they call. That is the person they trust and that is the person who has their heart.
My son, women only have power over weak men. If you can master yourself and your desires, then women cannot control you.
If you cannot control your desires, the woman you desire will put a price on her love, and if you are a weak man, you will stretch beyond your means to meet
My son, if everyone can see the value of an asset or land, then it will be overpriced.
However, if you can see a value most people cannot, then it will be underpriced, and you will most likely make a significant profit.
If what you see in a lady is what everyone sees, then
My son, you should never beg for love; it’s as pitiful as a hunter begging an antelope to be his lunch.
Relationships aren’t built on compassion and pity but on self-interest.
Of the millions of sperm a man releases, the woman’s egg usually only accepts one.

Weeks ago, a young man at university reached out with a request for mentorship. “I downloaded all The Woman’s Bait stories,” he told me when we met, “and compiled them into a folder on my computer.” He reminded me of Jesus’s parable
My son, you should never assume that any woman is an angel until you’ve seen her wings.
That naïveté is responsible for many a heartbreak. Human beings, male or female, are flawed creatures.
Keep your expectations high, and you’ll be disappointed. Keep them low, and you’ll be

When I met my wife, I lived in a three-bedroom apartment on the top floor of a three-story building. I slept in one bedroom, used the second as a home office, and the third was mostly empty. “Why did I live alone in such a big house?”
My son, when I was exiting a job at about 24yrs old. My mentor told me, “gyova toyombye, gyotela okudda [where you leave without quarreling, is often where you return].” Allow me to pass the same wisdom to you. DONT BURN BRIDGES.
My son, your greatest weapon in dating and life arenas is confidence.
Confidence is a state of the mind. It isn’t confidence after perfection; it’s confidence despite imperfection.
A man lacking in confidence will blame others but himself. He’ll blame God for his physical
My son, you should never be blinded by the beautiful faces because behind them lies the real person.
The real person usually emerges when we are offended or stressed.
There’s a beautiful woman who will shut you out for days when offended.

My son, many people are stage-managed. They show what they know people will like and hide what they won’t like.
Fortunately, people’s true natures show up in various ways, which can be used as a proxy for the person.
