How does this question sound? Does
it sound like something out of the ordinary? Or is it strange? Your answer to
this question will determine your reaction when faced with this question. Going
out for dinner with a male or female other than your spouse sounds ordinary,
but with deep meaning. A dinner with any person other than your spouse could
either mean two things; it is either for a business meeting or for illicit
affairs that could be harmful to a marriage.
This story is a typical scene that
is likely to erupt when somebody accept this invitation without critically
examining the condition that brought about the invitation.
Roslyn and Arthur are young
couples who recently got married. Roslyn is a beautiful lady with smooth and
succulent skin like that of a new born babe, a beauty to behold. Roslyn is
gainfully employed in one of the big organizations. Her duty is to liaise with
other similar organizations in- respect of new products and services of her
organization and that of other organizations. Similarly, her husband Arthur is
also employed in a bank as an executive. These couples can be said to be
comfortable by all standard, and they have love and care for each other. But
something happened that make the commitment of one of the couples to their
marriage union doubtful.
Roslyn by virtue of her position
meet with different types of people both men and women. During one of her
routines she met a man who is an employee in another organization and they
became friendly although the friendship looks platonic in the beginning, but
the man in question had other plans for their friendship. One day thinking that Roslyn has forgotten who she was, asked her for a dinner outing. Roslyn was
stunned by this request but kept her cool and calmly turned the request down.
But this man persisted in his request and Roslyn wall of defense caved in and
she accepted the invitation for a dinner outing. Thank God she realized herself
before any harm is committed, and backed out of the relationship.
Many marriages have been destroyed
by invitation of this kind. Going out for a dinner with a man other than your
spouse could spell doom for your marriage because one thing could lead to
another. An innocent invitation may have a hidden agenda underneath.
My sincere advice to married
couples is to resist this kind of invitation for it is not always made with
good intentions, unless maybe it is purely for business purpose, and always
ensure the discussions does not go into personal matters. If you become naive
and allow yourself to be boxed into a corner, you will be doing a great harm to
your marriage.
