Please I Need Your Candid Advise Can A Marriage Survive Without Money? by Phboy1(m): 2:55am On Jul 14, 2015 |
I am a 33 years unemployed graduate and i have a girlfriend of 32 years and we have been dating for 3 years now. She is putting pressure on me to marry her and i have just yielded to her pressure by putting the wedding for next month. I m really scared if love is enough to keep our marriage since both of us are unemployed at the moment and i m just managing a room accommodation. some months i earn upto 15k from sale of shoes while some months i dont get upto 3k as earning and this money can hardly sustain me as a bachelor let alone getting a wife. please i need your candid advise so that i dont make the mistake of my life. |

No it can't o. Please don't lose focus, she on her part might be clamoring 4 marriage due to the society but I bet you don't want a nagging wife. If you sure you can be loyal, you guys can build your wealth together fine but entering marriage without financial security it's hell o especially when kids start coming in you guys need to talk. Because I no get no dey enter woman ear well o. Wish you luck and increase. It is well 5 Likes |

Phboy1:. you can both go to court or church to get married. No spending. Just you and your girlfriend. She is aware of your situation and still wants to marry you. Do it the easy way and cheap way. She will come to live with you and maybe you can work/ find jobs together. The only advice i have is for you not to have kids until you are financially stable. You dont want to bring your kid into this world to suffer. 11 Likes |

He that finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. There's favor attached to marriage. Although you have to work harder and your wife should be involved in working also |

Adufetohposh: Do you honestly think a burning desire to be a mother will hinge on the condition of being married? Her desperation is probably due to insecurity issues hence the demand @OP If you love her and you both want it then go ahead with a court wedding Why are you guys jobless though, do you have any skills/certificates? If you guys do decide to get married then please don't procreate until you are financially stable. The new status wouldn't necessarily change your financial standing since you guys have been able to manage as is for quite a considerable period of time 1 Like 1 Share |
Re: Please I Need Your Candid Advise Can A Marriage Survive Without Money? by Nobody: 7:23am On Jul 14, 2015 |
Both of you have been surviving on your low incomes so you can still survive after marriage... But be sure not to procreate till you're more financially stable abeg.. Also, hope you ain't marrying her cos she's putting pressure on you? You love her and want to marry her? Then, she has to get something doing no matter how small. 1 Like |

Phboy1: You can still have a successful marriage without much money, all it takes is good planning and following through with your plan. I hope you be jointly taking care of the bills in the house though, because you look like you will need to do that. If the shoe-business is always hot and cold you could consider extending to other things like food items, this is something everyone will always buy on a daily basis. Do make plans to expand especially when you will start having kids (if its part of the plan). If she needs to be on pills or get a patch until you can afford to have children, you advice her to do so. Hopefully she will also be working or doing some form of business to help with the bills. 1 Like |

@Op, I am a woman and I don't sleep well when I'm unemployed for one month. Pls, I beg you, your 32yr old gf probably have been told that she is NOBODY without a husband, so it's not like she likes poverty, she just wants to get married at all cost. Think twice, find something to do that would generate income and stay committed to your girlfriend until you have saved enough money. Abeg oh, don't be deceived, you will not know the importance of money until you have another mouth to cater for. Don't go into marriage yet, cos the same society that's making your gf rush you will also remind her later that she is married to a lazy man who can't cater for her, remember, you will be at the receiving end of all the troubles. At least one of you should have a job. God will help you and opens ways for you. ** @Phboy1, or is your gf pregnant? 1 Like |
