OPINION | Why you should add 'comes from a good family' to the list of your ideal partner

Choosing an ideal partner goes beyond looking at their qualities, Futhi Masilela explains why it is important to ensure that you also consider the family your partner is from.

When looking for a partner, we usually have a long list of qualities that we would love them to possess to fit into the image of a great partner for us. That list usually includes qualities such as being loving, caring, financially stable, emotionally present and all other things that make up a good partner. However, we forget to add that they should also come from a good family.

This means that whatever responsibilities your partner has for their family automatically become yours - their way of life becomes your way of life. Furthermore, if your partner doesn't know how to stand up to their family and hold them accountable, you get a piece of that nasty pie too, meaning, that one mean aunt, becomes your nightmare too.Take a breather in your busy day with this curated collection of real-life stories, sitdown interviews, everyday tips and expert insights.

Otherwise, your children will grow up to become adults who dread going to family gatherings and possibly lose interest in being family oriented. You may be able to cope with having bad family members, but your children may not, and they will have to deal with that family forever.
