Have you ever looked at your spouse six months into marriage and quietly asked yourself, "Is that all?"
You are not the first. You are not the last. And you are not broken.
What you are experiencing has a name. In the business world, they call it Buyer's Remorse. That sinking feeling after a major purchase when the excitement fades and reality sets in. It happens with cars. It happens with houses. And yes, it happens with marriages too. Almost every couple walks through it. But almost no one warned you it was coming.
That silence is what destroys marriages that should have thrived.
Because when the honeymoon fades, and the fights begin, when the person you married suddenly feels like a stranger, when your family whispers and your friends judge and your own heart starts doubting you assume the worst. You conclude you married the wrong person. You start looking for the exit. And you walk away from a marriage that could have become one of the greatest things God ever gave you.
It does not have to end that way.
Handling Buyer's Remorse in Marriage is the honest, faith-rooted guide that no one gave you before the wedding. Written by Pastor Peter O. Fagbule, a marriage counsellor who has walked with couples through this exact season for over a decade, this book pulls back the curtain on the phase every marriage must survive to become what God intended.
Inside, you will discover:
Why the "Is that all?" feeling is completely normal and how to walk through it
The hidden expectations sabotaging your marriage without you realising
How to distinguish real problems from natural marriage seasons
The 12 practical steps to move from disappointment to deep intimacy
The one shift that turns marital remorse into marital resolve
Heart-to-Heart Discussion Guides at the end of every chapter for you and your spouse
Whether you are newly married and drowning in disillusionment, a few years in and quietly wondering if you made a mistake, or engaged and preparing yourself for what is really ahead. This book will meet you where you are and show you the way forward.
