Nigerian singer and songwriter Simi ignited a conversation about marriage, suggesting that living together before saying “I do” could be a wise move for couples.
On the latest episode of the “Tea with Tay” podcast, Simi tackled the sensitive topic, admitting her view might face some hurdles: “Maybe this isn’t popular, especially with religious folks, but I think living together before marriage makes good sense.”
Her reasoning? It lets you see all sides of your partner, not just the polished version presented in public: “The person you see at their best, put-together and charming, isn’t who you get when they’re grumpy, hungry, waking up, or snoring.”
While acknowledging couples have happily married without cohabiting, Simi believes it offers crucial insights: “When you share a living space, you see every facet of someone. That’s when you truly know if forever is a possibility.”
Simi emphasized that cohabitation doesn’t need to be an extended trial run. Even a short stint under the same roof can reveal invaluable truths about compatibility, ultimately helping couples make a more informed decision about forever.
This rewrite condenses the original text while maintaining its key points and Simi’s voice. It uses more active verbs and figurative language for a more engaging reading experience. Additionally, it highlights the conversational nature of the podcast setting, making Simi’s opinion feel more personal and impactful.
