From Quiet Success to Onion Debates: How I Met My Wife

At 39, my life looked perfect on paper but felt empty at night. Tired of coming home to silence, I admitted I needed help finding love and signed up with a matchmaking service. On our first date, we argued over onions like courtroom lawyers. I almost ran, but her shift from fierce debate to warm smile kept me at the table. Amid the chaos, we laughed genuinely for the first time. Premarital counselling forced us to tackle real questions about conflict, respect and love’s challenges. Those sessions grounded our relationship and helped us build something intentional. Today, we’re happily married with two kids. If there’s one lesson from my story, it’s this: love can start loud and messy, but imperfection often reveals what truly matters.
