Popular Nollywood actress Rita Dominic reveals why she waited too long to before getting married.

The actress in 2022 got married to Fidelis Anosike in her 40s

Speaking in a recent interview, she revealed that she wanted to be sure she was marrying for the right reasons and not societal pressure.

She noted how she would be the one to pick up the pieces if her marriage failed which was why she wasn’t fazed by the increasing pressure from the society.

The season actress added that though she met a lot of good men, they weren’t compatible and she doesn’t force relationships when it’s clearly not working.

In her words,  “Marriage is nice and interesting. We were friends for a long time and then we found love, and then we dated and we got married.
” I wanted to be sure that I was marrying for the right reasons and not for societal pressure. There was pressure for me before I got married, it was for years. I just turned a deaf ear. I always said I would marry the man of my dreams and not the man the society dreams for me because if anything happens to me tomorrow, I would be the one to pack up the pieces and not the society. So I would do it when I wanted to do it and it would be the right time and I believed I did it at the right time and with the right person. I met a number of good people but it just didn’t happen or work out. I don’t believe in forcing things, if it’s not working, it isn’t working. If you aren’t compatible, there is no point forcing things and then tomorrow you are out of it”.
