In a candid interview with DJ Mo and Size 8 on TV 47, actress Dorea Chege shared insights into a challenging period in her relationship with DJ Dibul. Chege revealed that she had moved out of their shared home for two weeks following a heated argument, highlighting the struggles and growth that ensued.
Ego and Apology: The Stumbling Blocks
Chege explained that the root of their temporary separation was a clash of egos, with neither party willing to be the first to apologize. “I packed and left for two weeks. We had ego and no one was willing to be the first to apologize. No one wanted to be the ‘desperate’ one,” she shared. This stubbornness led to frequent arguments, making Chege question the stability of their relationship.
A Change in Perspective
During her time away, Chege had an opportunity to reflect on their relationship dynamics. She realized that their arguments stemmed from a lack of understanding and communication. “But it got to a point where I had to listen to what he wants and not what I want for him. Marriage is not an achievement; finding a working marriage is the achievement,” she stated. This shift in perspective allowed Chege to see the importance of mutual respect and understanding in their relationship.
Lessons Learned
Chege’s brief ‘escape’ period taught her valuable lessons about handling relationship pressures. She emphasized the importance of not succumbing to social media influence and highlighted that leaving is not always a solution. “Packing and leaving is not a solution; it only made things easier. Communication is the solution,” she said. This realization reinforced the necessity of open and honest dialogue between partners.
A Path to Better Communication
DJ Dibul echoed Chege’s sentiments, admitting that they had to learn how to handle their differences effectively. “We are like any couple. We argue. We lacked proper communication but we have learned what works for us. It got to a point and I stopped ‘running away’ from arguments,” Dibul noted. The couple has since sought the help of a therapist and occasionally involves their pastor to mediate and guide them through difficult times.
Moving Forward
Chege and Dibul’s experience serves as a reminder that all couples face challenges, but with the right tools and mindset, they can overcome them. Their commitment to improving their communication and seeking external support when needed has strengthened their bond. As they continue to navigate their relationship, they remain dedicated to understanding each other’s needs and maintaining a healthy, functional marriage.
In conclusion, Dorea Chege and DJ Dibul’s journey underscores the importance of communication and compromise in a relationship. Their story is a testament to the power of listening, understanding, and growing together as a couple.
