Tips to a Blissful Marriage

I was reading the Star this morning and there was a story (news) on how the Terengganu state government wants to ‘spice up sex life of newly-weds’. The divorce rate in that state has gone up and apparently the main contributing factors are Body Odour (I cannot imagine!), Humdrum Sex and Boring Pyjamas (including those worn-out t-shirts that we so dearly love that actually horrify our other-halves) . I don’t know what the divorce rate is in Brunei or the causes. But I think these should also be addressed in Brunei pre-marital course (kursus nikah).

So before you buy ‘Tongkat Ali’ or ‘Kacip fatimah’ these are a few ‘investment for life’ products that are vital in every marriage:
1. Deodorant and perfume;
2. Lingerie for women (I need to buy these too!); and
3. Decent pyjamas/sleepwear for men.

It was also suggested that taking a bath/shower together can also help in the S department.

Ok, Abang……!

Salaam.
