***"All the wealth in the world cannot be compared with the happiness of living together happily united" - Marie Marguerite d'Youville***


Hello, my lovely Hive Naija people. It’s another beautiful weekend, and we’re excited to have you here once again. A new weekend simply means another chance to buzz the Hive blockchain, connect with one another, and simply have fun. You'll also agree with me that there’s something special about bringing everyone together to gist, share opinions, and enjoy good vibes. That is exactly the reason we will continue to meet every weekend.

OBJECTIVE

Sam's Hangout is focused on promoting the togetherness of the Nigerian brethren through active engagement on the blockchain. Beyond that, it is also centered towards the wellbeing of everyone who takes part in our weekend discussions and helps keep our discord running with their presence.

Note that this account was created to make the engagement more personal and official. You can check out the INTRODUCTION POST to learn more about our purpose and vision.

Our previous topic was ”VOTING AND TRUST"

The responses were super amazing and we had over 150+ comments filled with honest opinions, jokes, harmless banter, and fresh perspectives to learn from. The energy was truly contagious. Now, let’s see if we can beat our all-time high again this weekend, shall we? Please try to encourage responses by replying to one another. Remember, engagement is what makes this hangout special.

HOW OUR WEEKEND HANGOUT WORKS

A topic will be dropped every Friday on this account. Do well to share your thoughts, respond to someone else’s opinion, and feel free to interrogate or add more context on it respectfully. If you don’t have anything new to add, simply reply to another comment in agreement. We encourage you to tag your friends to join the discussion so we can have a fuller house.

All interactions should happen in the comment section, because that’s where the real gist goes down.

COHABITATION OR COMMITMENT?


Now to our discussion for this weekend! We will be discussing "COHABITATION OR COMMITMENT?”.
Cohabitation before marriage has become a common topic of debate, especially among young couples trying to understand what truly builds a long-lasting relationship. While some see it as a non-negotiable, practical approach in learning more about their partners and testing for deeper emotional connection and compatibility, others question whether it can ever be a reliable path to long-term commitment. The varying perspectives both online and offline have put people on different divides, but the most important thing is analyzing
what truly works, so others can take a cue if need be.

Here’s the question!

Do you think cohabiting before marriage helps romantic partners build deeper love, test for compatibility, and create a stronger foundation for their future together? If yes, do you support it, and do you believe it's a foolproof approach to a long-lasting marriage?

OR

In your opinion, does cohabitation before marriage leads romantic partners, especially women, to give up their independence and take on marital responsibilities without legal backing or long-term commitment from the other party? If so, do you believe the disadvantages outweigh the benefits? Please, share your practical answers or experiences with us.

If you have a topic you would like us to discuss in our future hangouts, please feel free to suggest it to us in the comment section and tag @sam.hangout to it.

Don't you think we are forgetting somebody?... Well, I'm sure we are...

FRIDAY PLANS, OWANBE SATURDAY, AND SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

To make our hangout more interactive, we have decided to add two events to spice it up.

On Saturdays, we share our owanbe stories, party gists, and even pictures.

On Sundays, we reflect on the weekend and things we learnt so far, as well as share plans for the new week.

Don't forget to join us!!

Please, do not take it to the extreme.

With all that said, let the discussion begin...
