Fatshimetrie: In search of divine love
When Fatoumata Armooh reflected on her past, she became aware of the innocence that she had when she chose her husband. She admits with humor that if her husband proposed to her today, he would wonder why, because she was unaware then of the path that opened before her.
In her youth, she was looking for someone who accepted her for who she was, encouraged her to be herself, and shared values similar to hers. However, she has since realized the importance of a partner deeply connected to God.
“The journey of marriage is unpredictable, and in critical moments, I would prefer someone who chooses God’s side,” she explains, emphasizing the need for a partner with strong faith.
She also addresses the importance of physical attributes, stating that she would rate a partner according to the biblical definition of love and expect them to score at least 85% in these qualities.
Fatoumata Armooh emphasized the importance of physical attraction and compatibility.
“Our values have to be aligned. Appearance matters to a certain extent, because I think about how my children look. Not everyone I want to be intimate with, so there has to be that physical attraction basic where, when I am touched, I do not shudder.”
