why you dey swear for yourself? Why una guys just like to dey call yourselves 'broke'? Many women are with men who are trying to find their feet, after all, even team broke guys get babes, abi you no get babe so? People get married every Saturday and 90% of those men aren't rich, so who's marrying them?

Only gold-diggers and runz girls go into relationship with the mentality that it's a guy's duty to spend on her.

So I think you are referring to "runz girls" in your post, not a real woman who knows she can live her life without depending on a man financially in a relationship.

You didn't tell us where it is written in the bible that a man should be responsible for the bills of a woman he hasn't gotten married to.

Relationship isn't something you buy with money by spending for a girl/lady. So get that!

Women should put as much effort in improving themselves for their potential suitors as well. I know it's only natural to want to be with a successful attractive person, but these females need to stop thinking that they're entitled to their husband/boyfriend's wealth just because they're together. It's really nauseating. If you people claim and fight for equal rights, you should be able to buy your own things, pay for your own meals and take care of yourself. You want to be equals with men, but don't want to lose the comforts of a man's acts of chivalry SMH.

safarigirl:
my brother, thank you. Naija men think they're the only ones that deserve good things and the ladies, like hungry dogs, should settle for whatever bones thrown to them and even be grateful. It's a sickening mentality cuz these same guys want their sisters with nice, smart, good-looking and comfortable guys.

Adaeze003:


So, all the ready-made people you knew when you were lil are now broke I guess?

That's not always the case but feel free to use it as consolation prize.

Oh well, the day I'll listen to guys making fun of girls for wanting a guy with money is the day they(guys) stop going after girls they fancy.

To each, his/her own.

Op, are you implying that money-making is an automatic passport to finding that right girl ?


All i know is that whether you are rich or poor, you can still invite a bull crap girl into your life

Finding that right girl takes more than money but other things which may be quite unnecessary to mention


I hate this silly mentality of NIgerians that the sole reason why a guy should be rich, is to make himself attracted to ladies or be in good relationship


As for me, i dont dwell in that silly notion cos im not striving hard to be rich just because i want to find that right girl or have a peaceful relationship, but because it is a necessity that i improve my standard of living against all odds


Lastly, your Biblical reference quite unnecessary cos it does not in any way collerate with your points.


Mind you, Adam never hustled being the custodian of the garden of Eden... God provided everything by default

Btw, nice write-up

I have a motto in life. "Prepare for the worst but pray for the best".
For the fact that I am not broke today doesn't mean I should build my future with a person I will always watch my back. And also doesn't mean that I shouldn't prepare for eventuality.

Now, which broke dudes get babe?. Na the babes wey just hang around they wait for higher bidder to dump the guy or na another set of babes wey marvelous nova see.
Abi na the once wey dey dump their husband when things no go has planned>>https://www.nairaland.com/2124611/another-nollywood-actor-prince-james

Where you get your flawwed statistic from?. You and I know that 90% of naija babes that marry struggling ggs is bcs of desperation and pressure to get married, and 92% of naija babes will never imagine hooking up with such men.

When it comes to sharing top job position,they will say"what a man can do a woman can do more better.But when it comes to paying bills,it's always the man's responsibility.

netizenbuzz:

Both parties feel the sense of entitlement please. Men feel they are entitled to their woman's service, food etc. We all just need to stop being selfish and learn to be more considerate.

tommychow:
OP LISTEN TO ME! You're not getting the issue. It's like a country where 95% of women are fat and ugly and majority of the men are like "I MUST MARRY A SLIM, CUTE CHICK". Very ignorant, right? We need to ADAPT to our surroundings. As you said, population is rising with lesser jobs available due to stunted growth in the countries economy. Now, you are indirectly saying all women MUST be with a financially stable man by saying all men MUST be financially stable before getting a partner. When he's 44 abi?

Listen, things have changed. Relationship is also a hustle nowadays, 'hustle' in the sense that we need relationships to go through hard times more than good times. Blame this dead country.

And ladies, keep searching for "made men" ehn. To one made man, there are 150 interested babes. HE'LL BE A FOOL NOT TO MESS AROUND! After suffering he'll now settle with one woman? RUBBISH! Which one is love? Did you love him when he had nothing? ABEG SHARRAP DER!!!

Shymm3x:
What/what is a ready-made man? Is man ever ready?

Guys should stop complaining about these heaux being materialistic should be a more befitting title cos the pum is always for sale to the highest bidder or the one who has the best pitch when it comes to selling dreams. Pum has no permanent owner and I agree that you can't knock their hustle.

Just get ya muscle/hustle up, so you can afford any pum regardless of the price.

Teempakguy:
I have to add something.


I still don't understand why guys are allowed to go after pretty and curvaceous girls in peace, while girls are criticized for going after rich men. It's basically the same.

And as if that is not enough, they criticize ladies that go after

1. Looks.
2. Intelligence.
3. Fame.


In short, if they had their way, they would want every lady to date, poor, ugly, dumb guys . . . just because . . .

I know how much cream costs, powder, lipstick, clothes, I've often been forced to go shopping with these girls, and I have been shocked at how expensive it is to be beautiful. Yet, men go after them . . . with nothing. How do you expect her to keep up the ruse?

But wait, you expect her to use her money, right? But then, why would a lady that is rich enough to take care of herself, settle for a poor dude? Love isn't THAT blind. And the worst part, this doesn't stop with money alone, if a lady says she would love to marry a handsome man, guys will quote her and insult her. Saying that she will have to settle for anybody when her time runs out.
If she insists on dating someone with a good command of English, they will criticize her as well. If she says she prefers dating doctors, or a certain flavour of engineers, they will gather around to call her a gold digger of sorts.
If she says she wants a tall man, they will insult, if she says she wants a confident man, they will insult. They will insult if she friendzones. WTF?!!!!!

Guys, this . . . is not that fair oh. . . . we need to give these guys a break and let them choose for themselves. Being broke doesn't make you special. It makes you . . . broke and undesirable to women. I have seen many of you claiming that one day, you will be rich, but in reality, the odds are against you. It is very likely for her to regret staying with you however.

Let the women choose what is best for them without insults and criticism. They have rights too.


That's all.
