Na wa o! What is the place of love in this relationship? Isn't real love supposed to be supportive and ''blind''?

Now for proper naija sense. If na me, i go bone the girl continue dey find work. Wen i get beta work, me go look for beta girl join.

Dis kain chic wey no wan marry your friend sake of say im no hol. Na beta girl be dat? What if your guy coins emaciate tomorrow, dis kain girl no go remove leave am?

Abeg, leave mata for mathaias. How many people get better job for naija now sef. Abi una no dey hear of minimun wage eh? Una think say na for newspaper e dey exist?

What's the necessity here? getting married or getting a good paying Job?

baba77:

dnt ever make d mistake of getting married because of "age is not on my side" without a stable means of income. marital relationship is very frustrating without money; no matter d amount of love involve. so my advice is to please, sit, think of what u believe u can do as in skills, set up a trade/business, package and believe it is well with prayers instead of staying wt d 17k job dat is not half enof 4 u not to talk of girlfriend/wife.

When it comes to money, woman na woman o my brother there4, settle yr financial life first b4 embarking on marital journey.

All d best

[/b] lol, this just prove my point that most women marry men for "comfort and Financial Gains", like a friend always say, 90% of women has a price-tag.

         It's a sad predicament indeed. You indicated that your buddy read sociology, If he's in Lagos, I can make a few calls if he does not mind working for the state govt in Alausa, Ikeja. I'm not promising anything, but some high echelon of the govt owes me a few favor. Things might turn up. All the best.[b]

SOPRANO:

[/b] @ aminalib,

spot on. It also baffles me, but that's the case here in the U.S, However; it actually makes no different in Nigeria, i know a couple of buddies that studied Political science in here in the U.S but went down to Nigeria and are both currently managing branches of commercial banks in Lagos. it's called connection, it's all about who you know, not what you know.

No wonder a lot of people in Nigeria go about stealing and doing 419.

The guy went to college and is struggling day and night to better himself.

Yet some Olorunsogo ladies come here and say he should work hard and be serious!!

. . .is he not trying?

And we want crime to reduce in that country . . .we are fooling ourselves.

If the guy becomes Andrew and checks out now, you will run your mouths again.

Here in the states, i have seen decent ladies begging guys with meagre salaries to marry them as long as they see the potential.

Why cant that happen in my Nigeria??

If i loved him i would eventually marry him, i would however tell him that he should go back to school for a better skill, age is a number, it means nothing when u are trying to accomplish goals(IMO) as long as you never stop trying. I make my own money with or without him i will be ok, even with his income it could help also. So if he decides to go back to school and change his career i would. I never understand why people go to school to do sociology, phychology and all these liberal arts, when at the end of the day it pays u NOTHING,(US based point of view) unless u plan to get a masters or beyond and still that is not guaranteed. I have a cousin that went to school for ARTS and now has a student loan of 50,000 USD and he has a job that pays 10.00 an hour, what a waste.

MBG4Real:

Do you mean that four years he spent in University studying Sociology is a waste? To tell someone that is desperate to balance, to go back to school is really mean. I believe this :

D-sense:

OP.
Tel him to work harder and to try another girl . . . . .Tha girl is never his girl.
Atleast the dude still got a job,though little wages but still something . . .Why are some women like this?

Hmm   love only reign on paper
Love is only blind by mouth
Love endureth forever thru text message
Love conquers all only when the babe is still gaining some things
That lady should be fuccked well enough and thru her away
Then she can go and find her ready made china man
