Michelle Obama, the former First Lady of the United States, has shared insightful advice on selecting a life partner. Drawing a comparison to team sports, she emphasized the importance of choosing a spouse with versatility and well-rounded qualities.
Using basketball as an analogy, Michelle explained that just as a coach would prefer a player who excels in multiple areas rather than someone who can only score, individuals should look for partners who bring a variety of strengths to the relationship.
She encouraged people to approach marriage like building a strong team—by selecting someone capable of contributing in many ways, not just in one aspect. According to her, a successful marriage requires a partner who is dependable, supportive, and skilled in navigating different challenges together.
“Everybody has to be able to do it all,” she said. “Each person in a couple has to be able and willing to do it all.”
She added: “You don’t want to marry a man who is like ‘I don’t cook’. It’s like, well, what happens if I can’t cook?”
She added that “life is just so unpredictable” and each partner should be able to step in when their partner is not capable.
She continued: “Or if you’re the woman and you can’t balance the checkbook because you’ve left that to him. Life is too complicated for two partners not to be real equals in it.”
In the caption, she added: “Find a partner who isnt just willing to divide and conquer, but who’s capable of covering for you during life’s unpredictable moments.”
