His face though!!! LoL 😆

Such a great idea and hilarious

His dad told him that before you get married to make sure you can support your wife & kids so I think that's why he waited to purpose.

X2 😂🎉

@Marilyn Taylor, You realize that black males WORLD-WIDE practice INTRA-racism and colorism against their own race of black women, right? You realize that most black males think that their own race of black women are basically ugly compared to white girls, correct?

15 years 😂😂😂.... Be gone

That s a bussy popping black kang for ya.

@@TruckinGal-by1so Um dont do that, that just nasty.

@@TruckinGal-by1so bitterness is the reason why no one chooses your kind

@@TruckinGal-by1so and in english....?

And they are in sync 🥺

Same. 😊

So true me too I smiled 🙂

knowledgenerd2 Hinkle, I guess you weren't mentally capable of realizing that the black groom was yet ANOTHER self-hating black male practicing INTRA-racism and colorism against his own race of black women and worshipping the white man's daughter instead. Imagine a world where black males actually valued their own race of black women. Imagine..

@@kimberlymccall4153 You're blind. Black males WORLD-WIDE practice INTRA-racism and colorism against their own race of black women. Imagine a world where black males actually valued their own race of black women instead of worshipping the white man's daughter. Imagine...

She wait so long it got dusty

@@Joy-sq9sh that’s mine! Been with my love for 14 years 🤣 finally engaged!!

A couple that can laugh together will be solid. I can attest to that. Just celebrated our 27th wedding anniversary and our 34th anniversary of being together.

Absolutely 💯

Nothing goes together better than love and laughter😏☺️😅🥰

Note: Rule of Thumb 👍if you don’t see yourself marrying the person, don’t date them

If a man said a women gave TWO ultimatums not 0 it means it was most likely FOUR Women don’t like admitting these things because they just want a man to want to marry them.. & sometimes that’s not the case you hear these convos a lot nowadays cuz some women still want to get married & most men don’t now.. yet they want to be perceived as the cool girl & the down for whatever chick in the same breathe This was also proven when she had to correct him on saying I HAD to vs I WANTED to when it came to marrying her. No judgement to the couple.. but the 15 yrs is a reason not choice

He shouldn’t have been with her if he FELT like he needed to do anything. If so he deserves to be miserable so she can be happy.

My husband and I were together 11 years prior to getting married. We had priorities to sort out first. I have a preexisting medical condition so I had to be sure I could continue to be insured and financially stable. I stayed on my parents insurance and finished college and then worked for a few years and got insurance through my job. My husband went to college for awhile and eventually ended up getting a factory job for a few years before we got married so we were both insured and able to pay our bills. He's got a better paying and less physically demanding job now and I'm able to stay home with our kids. It's a blessing.

You have to sort out things for yourself and your own future and your partner has to do the same and when both are ready to build a life together, and not make each other miserable, then get married. So I agree with your choices and decision :) Marriage isn't a joke and being together in life isn't a joke as well especially if both already have a another life taking care of. Be stable then do the biggest decisions in life.

❤️❤️❤️

Yes! And he was emotionally connected with his dad's advice, to marry when he could support s family. So, Dad played a role. And so perhaps that made him a bit apprehensive about trusting himself as the provider, - not being prepared to fail. So, he waited until he came to terms, with his personal expectations. Probably realized, that it was ok to grab the gusto & say, Cheers Dad!!! I'll make it. We'll make it! I'm happy for him. I'm thrilled for her! Congratulations to both! Stay brave young man! You've got this!!! Beautiful Bride! No need to tie his shoes together at night. He's not going anywhere! You lucky girl! You lucky guy! Y'all have fun! Go outside & plant a garden. If you're successful, well, you'll know!

@@privatemailcall6011 Very well said !!!

He’s 🏳️‍🌈

I know, right? Weddings don’t have to be super extravagant. They could’ve been married and stayed together for those 15 years too.

This was supposed to be a positive post you could have kept that to yourself mamn this is their story not yours 😊

Your right! We did the courthouse first! And we’re still together 15 years later❤

If you wouldn't have waited then you don't know what actual true love is.

When the time comes the time comes Rushing things and being 'forced' into it is a good path to divorce

This is a beautiful love story I wish you both along and happy marriage

The funny thing is that marriage typically isn’t really beneficial to the group that is being..ahem.. proposed to in order to be deserve it outside of, maybe, emotional satiation(with even that not being guaranteed).

Hence, the dusting off the vows.

Hopefully they ain’t divorced in 5. She had to make this man do this.

Waiting 15 years is the sweetest thing you’ve seen? What have you been looking at then?

@@poeticlovee Not everyone gets married young. He waited until he finished college and got his dream career, just like his father wanted him to do. When his father passed, it set him back a bit until he was ready to finish and in doing so he honored his father. Thats admirable. She stayed by his side supporting him all the way. Just because you wouldn't have waited doesnt mean others will do the same as you..

@@poeticlovee I was referring to the JOKE, not the 15 years, dear. Besides, who is counting the years. It's not like they did not have a life during those years!

@@daisysfield5456 he's a simp.. She's in control.. they will be divorced.. only 6% of marriages ever last.

The vows had dust from being in the book so long.

Often it's realizing he can't do better. She's the best for him.

You're so right about the depression comment. One year I experienced 4 deaths within a 5-6 month time-frame (1 close friend and 3 family members) and it caused me to go into a depression because I was getting hit heavily back to back. My ex cheated on me during that time and told me that I was a horrible girlfriend and that I was being dramatic and needed to get over the deaths because "people die everyday." The one time that I've ever spoken out about this situation I was told by multiple men that I deserved it and that they hoped that I had learned a lesson about being selfish. 😕😕 Sorry for the rant, I just needed to express myself.

@@brwnserenity2351 sorry for your losses. People are heartless until it happens to them. And it's not selfish when you're grieving btw.

@@jessical4403 Thank you for your response! I hope that you have a great holiday season! 💖💖

@@brwnserenity2351 same to you 💞☃️🎄

Thiiiis is how you respond. Thanks for not making it about you.

AWESOME!!!

Wow

Congratulations!

Congrats 🥂✨

Absolutely no one asked or cares you attention whore.

Congratulations on your amazing milestone! Could you share the other 4 key factors to a successful marriage?

I’d like to know the other 4 too

I couldn’t agree more. My husband and I would not have survived our 25 years together without laughing at ourselves and each other

Sorry ladies for not getting back to y'all but many things keep you in the happiness zone and every couple's relationship is a little different. But here's the list. We've already said laughter and it's matched with fun. 1. Fun/laughter 2. Respect/trust 3. Loyalty/commitment 4. Friendship/forgiveness 5. Love/intimacy I shared this list with my neighbor and she agreed with them. And I would classify her as an expert. They just celebrated their 75th anniversary. I think she won 🏆. Lol. Blessed be!

@@freckleslappat5862 My list exactly!! I'll add compromising to everything you do as well. We go here cuz you want to, we go here or do this because I want to. 50/50 on that🙂 And I agree 100% on the laughter! 15 yrs over here! Laughter has been the cherry on top!

Yeah I found that, but he still did me dirty.

True but it takes more than that…

@@444truthteller awww

You really took the words right out of my mouth. I want some one to make me laugh like they do together. Love and laughter is the BEST!!🥰🤗😍😅

Amen love never fails

No I guess she had to wait for him to mature but we have people who with people longer than that but no ring so at least it wasn't waisted and marriage is a UNION under God not just a piece of paper in that case everyone would be married at least they are both mature and they have grew unto the people who are ready to take that step...

@@janderson947 well said! 👏🏾👏🏾🎯Coming from a woman married for 39 years. Even though they waited 15 years, it’s better for them because they both grew as individuals to maturity. Sometimes getting married too young is not the best choice because you don’t really know yourself yet, and need time to figure out who you are. Wishing them the best that life has to offer, and a healthy loving, respectful relationship and wonderful family life.

@@vetgirl71 exactly and congrats may God bless u both

Women can have normal healthy pregnancies over 30. That is a myth that society puts on women to pressure them to having kids at young. She will be fine

Marriage is not a piece of paper.. .. 15 years is a long time in other communities and race groups but I’m glad she finally got her investment back her time and recourses plus supporting him to go back to school etc he is definitely the price in this situation seems like it 🇬🇲

Please have someone record that part but not looked so planned omg I wanna see it 😊😊

Great idea!!!!!!

Put it online so everyone will know you stole it.

@@susivarga7303 there’s no way I’m putting my wedding online 😳 I never even used Facebook or Instagram, sharing my life online it’s just not for me 😅

@@valeb410 apologies, did not want to be flippant, but you know, the craziness going on on Social Media... Enjoy your big day, all the best. I enjoy being married, don't care what anyone else says. It's special 🙂

@Day EXACTLY

@Day PREACH

How romantic, was he a part of your will or trying to be so that if you died in surgery, he'd be good?

@Day It's crazy how so many don't realize these things

Exactly!!!

@@mrsbrown688 💯too long 🥵

Too long for you but exactly right for them...

That's beautiful but y'all should still be married!

What is it?

Yuuuuppp😂

👀👀

Facts. Men would never stand for it

Yep, we are making our men get their way without commitment, so easy.

EXACTLY

@@magnisky - its sad to see especially if he knows she wants to be married

Not everyone that waits has it turn out like Christy. Don't be a placeholder. It doesn't take someone years to know they want to marry someone.

Right not necessarily #relationship goals but I'm glad it worked out for them.

Woman have biological clock..your bf either take it or leave it

Are you able to stay ... pure during that time ? If not.. maybe it's time for you to find someone who values you now?

Please Don't compare. Every Relationship is Unique. *They have something Special* that made it work. Both wanted the same things and *they knew they'd get Married* after he got his Doctorate Degree,* doing what his Dad told him- _"Make Sure You Can Support a Family."_ *It wasn't One-Sided* he was interested this whole time and they communicate & were on the same page about the Future. It's different with Couples like them. *Most Couples grow Apart & Break-Up after 10-15yrs of the one who was hoping for a commitment wasted*_ their time Or the Marriage only last 8-10yrs because the Relationship ran its Course by the time they finally got Married. So please be Careful. A lot of men out there who really rather move on with someone else will go through with the Wedding simply because the Woman wanted to since they've been together a long time. *These 2 were meant for each other,* knew it and had a Plan. His Dad loved her and he meant a lot to her as well.

Exactly!

That's a major difference. Five years is normal. Fifteen is a fool

@@blahblahblah3722 If it wasn't the fact that he shipped out it could have easily been 15. 😊

I don't get the joke

@@LookinAtHim the joke is she’s been waiting so long to say these vows that they’ve collected dust.

@@jjgems5909 Ohhhh I see. I missed the part where she said she did the same thing as the lady in the video. Thanks for pointing that out!!!
