Veteran Nollywood actress Sola Sobowale, known for her commanding roles and motherly wisdom, has issued a strong and thought-provoking message to women in long-term relationships: don’t let over-familiarity ruin what you've built. In a no-holds-barred statement, the King of Boys star addressed a subtle but destructive dynamic in many relationships, how some women, after dating a man for years and learning his flaws, begin to treat him with less caution and growing disrespect. “Some ladies, because they've dated a man for years and know all his weak points, begin to treat him without caution, talking to him anyhow, showing little respect,” she said. “Forgetting that men too watch and store everything in their hearts.” According to Sobowale, a man’s memory is longer than many assume, especially when it comes to how he was treated in his lowest seasons. “How you treat a man when he’s down plays a huge role in what you’ll get when he finally stands,” she emphasized. “If you disrespect him, belittle his efforts, or make him feel less of a man just because he’s still trying, don’t be surprised when he decides to go for other options after making it.” Her words serve as a sobering reminder that longevity in a relationship is not a license to neglect intentionality, honor, and mutual respect. “Ladies, it’s not just about how long you’ve dated. It’s about how well you’ve handled him, especially during his low moments.” Sola Sobowale’s advice has sparked conversations online, with many applauding her for boldly addressing a common but rarely discussed issue. In an era where gender roles and relationship dynamics are constantly shifting, her message cuts through the noise with timeless truth: love without respect eventually becomes resentment. Whether as an on-screen matriarch or off-screen voice of wisdom, Sola Sobowale continues to shape hearts with her ability to speak hard truths with grace.
