I am from Free State, Kestell to be precise. I applaud the courage these two wonderful people have. I am married to a white American woman and we never experienced any of the challenges you guys went through. I think Americans are more open-minded when it comes to these relationships. You too are a wonderful couple.

[sellothabane]

[livetoloveandlaughlivefora]

The only thing I don't like I wish you guys would put on the screen the question that you're asking him so we can at least follow along in the way he's thinking because to me he is like all over the place We are not hearing or seeing the question that is being asked

[shereecockman]

Marne' do your parents claim to be Christians? If they do, then they're definitely reading the wrong Bible. The Bible teaches you to respect everyone, regardless of Race, culture or creed. I would ban anyone who disrespects my husband from my home. You have to draw the line and show them that it's unacceptable. What matters most is your love and respect for each other.

African men, we need to do better and raise strong African men, we can't expect the world to raise our boys 😢this brother is speaking with pain of abandonment .

[banekanikak]

I see the joy (not happiness) Joy! but also the pain and I get both their views, i have two suggestions for them if i may

1, its a false narrative that in marriage its two families coming together this misconception is actually a big problem in marriages and society at large. its actually 3 families that are separate families and have to coexist. my fam, my wifes fam and MY FAM. this families are 3 dif families and they have to operate parallel. you cant get either fam too involved cause the lines become blurred, and humans have this capacity and habit of holding something against you, if i tell my fam about an issue or problem about my wife they might give an honest opinion or suggestion but they might hold it against her in the future with out an intention at times, its even better to discuss this with total strangers or someone that doesn't even know your wife. the respect that they give your partner is based mostly on what you tell them (and they wont forget it) and how u treat her, they will treat her the same way, so i really believe in 3 families not two families coming together, that's why the bible says a man shall leave his mother and father... not leave to stay, u must literally leave and start your own fam and start your own way of life.

2, please please please remove the idea of race in your family and lives in general, there is no such thing as a black or white person, they just simply do not exist, this is an IDEA created by a play writer in the 1600 where in the play an African king called a European commoner a white man, (remember this was just a play) and the idea of identifying race was born. what is interesting is that this idea is fairly new, i know the play was written in 1600 but that's recent history. in ancient history there's no where in reference to literature where ppl are referred to as white or black. not in the Bible, not in the Quran, not in the first books in the world from china and india now where does it refer to anyone by colour. in the bible they always referred someone by where they are from not by race, black is a colour not a person, white is a colour not a race. someone sold us an idea and we ALL bought it' and it has caused so much pain in t he world and we still feed it to this day.

but i like that you have a championship mentality, God bless

[corneliuszana]

Once you go black, you never go back. Marne kyk mooi na Nhlanhla, julle is n goeie couple.
