I've known my current husband since we meet in school during our 6th grade year. We have now been together for almost 23 years been married for 20 of those years and have 3 grown children-(23 year old daughter, 22 year old son at the end of this month, & our baby boy who will be 21 in August. We are also grandparents to a 7 year old granddaughter & a 2 year old grandson.
@Adarose That is such a generalized, rude, stereotypical, strong statement. How dare you talk for every black man. There are many great, educated, well raised and established black men out there who very much love themselves and they will also love their God ordained spouse.
HE found me at work...a divorced woman with three children. He was a carpet contractor who happened to see me walking through the office ... married now 39years💜
The purpose of just having someone is not good enough for me, the purpose of having the right one is important to me. This woman has a lot of wisdom! ❤️
I just got married at 62 after being divorced for 12 years. My husband is 10 years older that me He was married for 42 years and I met him after his wife passed away. We dated for 2 years I’m so happy this time around because I now know what it’s like to love someone who truly loves you❤️ Getting married at 62 is just so wonderful.
At church. Dated 3 weeks got married, he had 2 adorable little boys, I had a teenaged son, after 2 years we had a boy and girl together. I’m 10 years older than him. It’s been 20 years this year!
I'm 41 and dating and have been single for going on 8 years. I completely understand having the "right" one versus just anyone. I definitely operate that way.
I met my husband online. We have been together 12 years...married for 6. My second marriage and his first. When I met his extended family they said I must AMAZING because we thought he'd never get married. I am 54 and he is 65. We have 3 children and 4 grandchildren combined. My parents died young. His Mother (88) feels like she is my Mom. His awesome Dad passed away a few years ago and I know that would be my husbands only regret that he didn't see us get married but he made it known that I was the one for his son. Means so much.
The negativity that is portrayed that after a certain age it’s too late.. I’m 34 my daughter is 3... her father my ex husband left us so I’m glad that I’m the right track on focusing on what’s more important, her... this was beyond wonderful to watch. Ending my night on this positive note. Prayers for the unions in marriage.. 🙌🏾
Why am I about to cry through the ENTIRE video?!?! My mother has been single for longer and she isn’t even interested in dating. My 1st husband passed when I was 30 and I thought the same as your Mom!! I wouldn’t marry and have a man interfere in the way, her father and I vowed to raise her. Until I met my husband of 10 years in June!! We both brought daughters(a 1 1/2 year apart) into the marriage and it meshed perfectly!! They were instant best friends and the rest is history!! Oh and we met at a house warming party!!
You guys have such a great relationship with your mom ❤️ I met my husband on a Metra train going to downtown Chicago. He sat next to me. My stop was coming up.. As I was getting out the seat He said I had a beautiful smile and handed me his business card and told me to contact him if I was single. Thought he was weird and I threw his card in my purse and got off the train.... I was bored on my way back on the train so I decided to text him... Fast forward 19years later we built a beautiful life with our 3 kids 😊
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR MOM!.. I TOTALLY AGREE WITH HER NOT WANTING ANYONE RAISING HER CHILDREN BUT HER! I'M OVER 50 AND YOU HAVE REALLY INSPIRED ME!! THANK YOU!!😊💕
I love they way they look at their Mom with so much love and respect. I can also see that her family is her world and she made so many sacrifices for them. So happy that she found true love, exspsecially a man who respects her and her children and loves them all.
I put all my energy into raising my son and like your mom never thought about marriage ...I never even dated for 15 years. I was always afraid of the evil step-parent. I thought that I would get into dating when my son got into college and all my family and friends encouraged me but I was so comfortable with my life as it was.. It was an overwhelming thing and I preferred to have peace rather than someone coming in and interrupting my life. Now that my son is graduating and Covid-19 pandemic here, I seriously have a need for a lifetime companion and partner. I don't know where to start...pray for me y'all. Hopefully he'll be my 50th birthday gift.
I have been single 32 years now. My children are all grown. Enjoying my grandchildren but like your mom said I would like to eventually get married again but it has to be the right one. Congrats to her
I can’t believe how young your mom looks she looks more like your sister than mother she only looks 30 if not younger I know 30 year old’s that look older than her, thank you guys love from the U.K. 😘🥰
Omg, thank you so much for this video. I am 55 yrs old and single. I do want to get married but sometimes it feels like it will ever happen. Thank you, this was encouraging that there is still hope for me. Thank you so much. I am so happy for your mom. Congrats.
My mom and step dad met at church . She was a 43 year old single mother- very very poor & on gov assistance w/ 3 teenage daughters that had the WORST attitude. My step dad took us as his own and honestly saved our lives from the struggle. they are still happily married 12 years later & just bought a house in a private community. Homeless to homeowner with such a nice and caring man . Love is so beautiful . be open to receive the good in life for the good to come in 💝
Blessings to your Beautiful Mommy and what a beautiful Love Story 💜 thank you both beautiful daughters for sharing 💕 I was a member of my Fiancé Dad's church as a little girl. We sung in the choir together but we NEVER talked. He was the Pastors son and only son so he was surrounded by girls all the time lol. But, he never was interested in me. I wasn't the up in your face little girl. I was quiet and cubby raised by my grandmother and just not in the groups. But, 4 decades later I get a friend request on Facebook from him and its almost the end of 2019 and I mentioned to him, I'm coming to Dallas and if you want to see me, come to the Potter's House Bishop Jake's church...this is where I'll be to bring in 2020 and he came. That night was the end and beginning for both of us. It was like God was saying.. You both started in my house as children and I've brought you back to my house as adults because this is your foundation, and you're now and ready for LOVE 💜 I'm engaged💍and preparing for our wedding in 2022💃🏽🕺🏾and I'll be 55 this year!! I LOVE ~ LOVE💜💜
Thank you for giving me hope. I have three grown kids. It's so difficult to not feel like a mom when they are around. I'm not picky. I just don't want to settle. You give me hope. I've been single for 20. I can't find anyone that interest me. I know what I want. I'd rather be happy with myself than miserable with company.
Please turn this beautiful love story into a Hallmark movie- with each of you serving as the actresses. All of you beautiful black women have me crying such happy tears right now- GREAT JOB MOM❣
Aweeee I loveeeeee this story so much, I smiled the entire time!!! I met my husband 11 years ago when we both worked together. 🥰🤩 2 kids later and A big move together for career purposes and we are more in love than ever before!! 🥰🤩💍 I loveeeeee LOVE!!! Thank you for sharing!
Same momma bear. I wasn’t looking, but I also wasn’t turning down my blessings lol. I was just going through life as a single mom with my oldest son, and came to a peace with myself and said, God I am ok even if it’s just my baby boy & I. Them BOOM 💥 HE SENT ME A HUSBAND! 8 years, 2 kids, 1 home we own, 1 bought out car, 2 cars we’re currently paying on, and working while now maintaining our new business God has blessed us with later! Lol won’t HE do it!
This is just so sweet. Love that your mom has found love again and is soooooo happy. You guys look like sisters. You are an amazing family. Congratulations to mom on her nuptials and Khadijah on the birth of her baby. Malika Ace is already one!!!! Amazing. Blessings all.
I would love to hear her husband side of the story on the next episode, I’m so happy for your mom everyone deserves to be love the right way it’s never too late. I can’t wait for Malika to find her true love when it’s God’s timing... simply amazing, such a beautiful love story after 32 years being single.
I met my husband at church. We grew up in the same the church and dated when we were teens. We broke up sometime while in high school. Even though we went to the same church, after high school neither of us went to church often (I just experiencing life, college). We reconnected on Facebook years later, after 3mths became exclusive, then married after a few years of courtship/engagement. We have been married 6yrs, 4mths, and 1 day 🥰. The in depth details of our love story is AMAZING and I wouldn't change a single moment. ❤
This is the cutest! "I like how she said, "he was a possibility". Yes, enjoy the journey, until a person proves themselves! Congrats and may your life be filled with even more blessings and love! ♥️♥️
What an amazing story that literally places hope in the hearts of many. 32 years! She totally sacrificed and put raising her kids first. She is an incredible woman
I am very happy for you. I am in the same situation of being single for a long time. I am still waiting for him to show up. You gave me hope to keep holding on...
There is SO MUCH to learn from her wisdom. It’s my 4th year of being single, i am 33. And I really don’t feel as if i was missing something. I know if I really appreciate someone enough to like and keep; I’d really go for it. But just having someone to “have someone” is not for me.
Hi girls i like the relationship your mom her daughters have its wonderful to watch i have a two daughters and a son and my daughters are lovely as you are my son he is a teenager the only difference is that in am in a relationship with my partner for 21 yrs and not even a ring and i am not living in your contetinent i am from the south america i can say i which if i can find that some one who will love me and respect me for who i am in my country when men have money and women have to depend on them you are a door mat so i am so happy to hear when a woman can be treated with respect and love when she have children from a previous marriage so may god blesse your mom and dad with all good things in their marriage
It warms my soul to read all these love stories from beautiful women. It truly gives my spirit hope to keep praying for my husband to come into me and my kids life. God bless all these unions!🤎
*@**4:35**...Wheew (exhale)... THANK YOU MA' IT'S GOOD TO HEAR I'M NOT ALONE!!! I don't want NOBODY coming in bc I wanna raise my kids how I want...PERIOD😏...And to hear this from another I feel ALOT better...May fod BLESS your union for ETERNITY 🤗*
Wow Khadijah ! You DEFINITELY show how much you truly care and love your mom, by every single thing you said, especially how bad you felt when she would visit and when she leaved how bad you felt. And how you were the only one always wanted and looked out for your mother ❤❤👍
Thank you, I so much needed to hear this, this morning @65 y/o with 5Adult children) empty nest and still full of life. but, I do know what I don’t want. #I’m alone but not Lonely..
Just bumped onto your page. Your mom story is very inspiring. I love the fact that she continued living. Love found her with a little help from her daughter 😜 This story is bathe in love❤️ I met my husband at my brother’s wedding after party. I was seventeen he was.nineteen. We will celebrate 43 years this August.
I’m highly encouraged after watching your video. It’s been 19 years since my divorce. I thought I would be married after my daughters graduated from high school. No dates, interests, no one. I went through a season of thinking I’m not desirable. I wad delivered from that frame of thinking. I value who I am and how God designed me. Love comes softly and I’m in expectation. Abundant Blessings to you and your family.
OMG. I love this so much!!!! I too was responsible for connecting my mom to her husband. She was single for years and remarried in her 60s. I was tired of seeing her by herself when I was married with children. I love love but it's even better when women like your mother and mine take their time and care for their children first. The reward of getting a great man is better when you wait. Your mother is God fearing and that is admirable as well. Bless you and your family.
your mom is beautiful and seems to be kind-hearted and positive. I've been single for 18 years now. Not meeting any man whom I like to spend my life with. I meet many men who have small children and I don't want to raise someone else's children. Maybe if I wait forf another decade, I will find someone, too
💫Congratulations 🥂 This love story is beautiful! 😍 Wishing the newlyweds and family joy, good health, & prosperity forevermore. Thank you ladies for sharing with us.
You would think your mother was Oprah's sister. I love seeing how u r your mothers daughters...the respect u have towards her is visible...its peaceful and calm..nice🙏
Can we see baby K? And get a video of Khadijah explaining why she named her that specifically?! Anddd a video of Baby Ace with Baby K and y'all just having a mommy and baby moment on camera. I'm sure y'all do it all the time off camera but we would love to see it. Plus I'm 33 weeks pregnant and I need some cuteness to help me through these last few weeks. Pleaseeee......
