Honestly, 'ayam not understanding'.

I don't understand the message this article is trying to portray. What achievement are we celebrating here? That she stayed put with a guy through his period of hardship?

I think it's mediocrity to preach this kind of message to our slay queens out there. If a lady stays with a guy whether he is rich or poor with the hope of benefitting from him whether now or later, what's spectacular about that?

Is that how we are going to have our own Condi Rice, or the next Okonjo Iweala or Dora Akinyuli?

Dear Nigerian ladies, your life vision shouldn't be to get married to some guy and be cooking rice with beans for him. Wake up.

It is your type that can't stand career women and are quick to disparage feminists.
This post is nothing but self-sabotage since what you want may eventually decrease your
satisfaction.

Zeze06:

The wife is pretty, the guy is one lucky "bastard"...

For people complaining what the girl did or did not do, just believing in the guy alone was a booster!

Imagine if she left out of frustration and impatience, the guy would have been demoralized, frustrated and lost confidence in himself, it takes a very strong and determined heart to pull it back together after such betrayal...

I still give it up for the girl! Staying alone was a great job!!

This thread shows the shallowness in many people, whenever they hear
"contribute", the only thing they can imagine is money.

It's like you dont understand what I typed up there. Did you read the part where I said a woman's vision shouldn't be to end up in a man's kitchen cooking rice/ beans for him? I am 100% in support of career women.

As per feminism, you are right. I dont support it. I mean creating special opportunities for women is in a way saying they deserve special attention because of their gender. I believe in creating a level playing field for all. No special rules for any gender. In fact when you are with me, I see you first as a human being and maybe much later or not at all I just might notice your gender for a fleeting moment. Well, that's a topic for another day.

It's hard seeing a lady doing that now, so the good ones deserves the accolade.

You are a wise man...

Wisdom is very scarce...

This is what the 21 yr old blogger was talking about. While waiting for the man to succeed, are you succeeding too or just waiting to eat the fruits of his labour. The story of the virtuous woman showed that she was working while taking care of her home and husband but we have all decided to leave out the work bit. If only we can stop telling our girls that their overall worth in life is leaving their father's house to their husband's house.

Thanks for your sincerity. So you want to marry a man with range rover already bah?

Range rover stuff isn't the issue... is there any guarantee that he will be completely faithful to me till the end after this type of sacrifice...sorry o but there is a certain degree of sacrifice i can make in my relationship. I can't die

I wish I have that kind of woman.
God only knows why I have the one I have.

It is now clear that common sense isn't common

Wrong! It is very common, its just that, it isn't meant for commoners......

SMH

What are you saying saying sef?
Your first sentence contradicts the rest. You should have simply answered his question in the affirmative and not trying to be dodgy.
...
What i inferred from this your response is; you can't do what she did and yes you want someone with a range rover.
Why were you now dodging? Is it wrong to want range rover?

I don't like things like this, makes it look like it shouldn't be the norm. We have lots of materialistic women around, but it's common sense and proof of loyalty to stand by your loved one. That's how it should be!!


She was also broke, and the guy stayed with her too.

Is she the only one that could have left? The guy can also hook a rich woman, do women think they're the only one with richer options?

She try, but na the guy try pass...

Your smart.. I appreciate that

There are a couple of things wrong in the portrayal of this story...

i reserve my comment

It is well

Nice story. The man's head though. Remember Humpty Dumpty.

She gave him peace of mind. There's nothing that fails a man like having a bad woman during struggle times. You have to wear the shoes to understand what I mean.

Wetin concern Churchee?
by the way, I used to have pimples, but they are all gone, I didn't apply anything; I just prayed. ;DWetin concern Churchee?

dont mind all these useless ladies that are busy looking for ready made man (RMM), they will wait 4eva and if they eventually find him they wont enjoy the marriage.

Its not a curse but the reality of life.

Gossiplover:
haven't you heard of the saying that 'behind every successful man, there is a woman'. do u think she did nothing while she stayed with him. No be everything dem go talk. Kudos to both of them. dey try

Not just any woman but a good woman.

You don't understand the motivation of a woman that believes in you neither the power behind a woman that stays with you through thin and thick and believes in you.

You just don't.

Many ladies today will go..we all know that.
Loyalty is the right thing to do but who does the right things these days.. Even broke girls be looking out for rich dudes.. Both of these couples are commendable.

Shoutout to this beautiful woman

Abi o. They both stayed. And as you talk am, na the try pass because na him hustle to pull them out. He could have left her there and go stay with his friend alone if he wanted.

I know many successful bachelors with no woman behind them and they're more successful than school teachers that have been married for 30 years

She get any option than to manage with the guy? Mtcheew! Who wouldn't manage with a guy that has a bright future ahead of him?

handsomebanana:


During the period Bill Gates was building Microsoft, there was no woman behind him.

Steve Jobs -- no woman

Larry Ellison -- no woman.

Larry Page and Sergey Brin -- no woman

Aaron Levie -- no woman


Behind every successful man is a lot of determination, years spent suffering and the urge to succeed.

I could go on and on

Your statement is outdated

dont mind him o. and there are many school teachers that have been married for 30 years and yet not successful

Thank you!

I think we celebrate these redundant Nigerian relationships too much. A woman shouldn't just sit in a relationship and consume and then we feel thankful that she didn't leave the bloke. Laughable.

Some comment really deserve some cash! How I wish..., anyway

Moral support. Believing in the man, providing companionship and removing konji, no be small contribution. E no easy. If her husband no ask that question, nobody has the right to do so.

Dude knows her contributions and worth. True.

Hmmmm. This is the most reasonable post ever read on NL since I joined this platform.



Hope those slay mamas and lazy boos are reading.
