It is the desire of every lady to get married one day and live happily ever after. While such is a good wish, however, you must be ready to drop some things you were doing as a single, especially things that might affect your marriage.
Here are 11 things a lady should stop doing once married:
1. Don’t keep friends that can hurt your marriage
As a single, you may be someone that has many friends. But in marriage, you only need few of them that believe in a great marriage. You will definitely need to do away with some that won’t help your home
2. Don’t dress indecently
While it’s quite okay to be a ‘slay queen’ as a single, but once you are married you cannot afford to be careless with your dressing. You must dress decently and moderately.

3. Stop taking decisions alone
You need to stop taking decisions alone as you now have a man that wants to be involved in your day-to-day activities
4. Stop keeping secrets
Even if you feel it doesn’t matter, it actually does now that you are married. Please don’t keep anything away from your husband; he won’t feel good about it if he hears from another source. Always be an open book he will never find difficult to read
5. Get rid of independence
If you want to be independent then marriage is not for you. Once you get married, nothing like I love my privacy anymore.
6. No more midnight calls
You cannot afford to make midnight calls or have those excessive chats with your friends. You have a man who wants to always have your attention and enjoy your company.
7. Stop eating junks
You will need to cook more good foods now so junk is not allowed. Even if you are not eating all the time, you must prepare food for your husband and children.
8. Never report your husband to your friends
Though you have always talked about him when you were courting, now is the time to keep the secrets of your home secret.
9. Stop the selfish act
You need to be extra selfless now that you are married. The world doesn’t revolve around you
10. Work on your character
Your character is your marriage. You know all those character flaws that friends and families have complained about, now is the time to put an end to them.
11. Limit your partying & occasion uniform (aso-ebi) purchase
Nobody is saying you shouldn’t go to a party but it must be limited. Also limit the purchase of occasion uniform. Your family will need money for a lot of things and it will only be wise for you to know what your priority is and set it right.
