UK-based Ghanaian Hilda Essel has stated that loneliness and naivety were some reasons she married a man she did not love him truly.<\/p>\n
According to Hilda, her morals as a Christian taught her to date a man who believed in sex after marriage. That is the only thing she looked out for in a man. However, she discovered that there was more to marriage than she thought.<\/p>\n
Speaking on SVTV Africa, Hilda mentioned that she lacked counsel on marriage and had no experience in dating relationships.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs at 27 years, I was a virgin with no experience in dating, and we met at the church too. I wanted a Christian man and someone who would not have sex until marriage. I thought a man who believed in that loved me, but I later understood that I was in an emotionally abusive relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hilda mentioned that she stayed in the marriage and sought counselling, but the situation remained the same. She added that their marriage lacked a good foundation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were married for a while, but it was a difficult time. I relocated to Ghana for about a year and back to the UK. I felt very guilty as a Christian woman and came back to him, but it got worse. Eventually, I left with the kids and relocated to this place,\u201d she disclosed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The mother of three indicated that she is not in constant communication with her ex-husband, but she still maintains some respect for him as the father of her kids.<\/p>\n
