My friend sister was into your shoes some years back and , asked for adviced from me . I told her she should marry for love . Yeah money is important but love is much more . Her mother twisted her head that she should go for money . She left a guy she was dating for 5years and started another relationship with one rich guy after two years they both got married . Then 1 year down the line he lost all, frustration set in and she was abused by the husband . The guy she left those years had become a very rich guy .. now my friend sister is divorced and a single parent , she’s back to her mothers house . The ex boy friend isn’t married and with his wife. The ex had nothing when he meet his wife and she supported him and believed in him , na so ex becom multi millionaire and he has been assisting my friend sister till date . With no strings attached . Sometimes life changes and sometimes it doesn’t . Follow your heart and you know where your happiness lies .. My best friend also was in this shoes and his GF of 3 years left him because he was broke and couldn’t be a man in supporting . She told him she wanted to move on and she meet someone else . He tried to talk her out but she insisted she was leaving and found someone who had funds . Na so she vamoose .. I took my friend 2 years to get healed and he moved on . He meet his now wife both dated for for like 2 years and belle enter , the lady didn’t want to remove and said they should both marry and move on . He was like he didn’t have anything . The lady supported the wedding and footed 80% of it . He struggled after wedding and boom things changed . As I speak to you the money he has in asset and cash no be here .. the ex who left now is divorced and a single parent also . The rich man she married then money no Dey like before . So just go for love because if he truly loves you like you have said you both will succeed and get there. 14 Likes 1 Share |

willingheart: I'm not married but please 2 things must be involve before settling down. Love and financial security. as for the money side, since u the woman is financially good to go and not as if both party are financially insecure. well but... 2 as for ur man, why is he financially handicap?? is he thr hardworking type?? if yes what has he been doing menially to cushion basic care for himself?? is he educated? what are his ambitions? what are his future plan?? these are the things to look out for. if u can attest good of above then u have no problem. but if he is lazy, no ambition, just waiting for luck. nothing to bring to d table than just Male figure and love then I think u need to have a reverse thinking o.. 1 Like |

Most Nigerian watched too much Yoruba movie,dear I must confess to you marriage go beyond love,a 35years old man who could not provide food, shelter,cloth for him self should not talk about marriage,no reasonable woman should sit down and talk about marriage with such a man, marriage is not about rich but the ability to provide for the family and let me remind you most of Nigerian ladies only marry a man who is ready no a man they love because woman don't love I will only advice you to marry someone who loves you and ready to care for the family 6 Likes 1 Share |

OP: I won't advice any woman to marry someone who's not financially ready for marriage. Raising kids is particularly expensive. But as a guy, I definitely won't encourage a woman to marry for the simple reason that the man is financial ready and suitable. I won't want that for me and that's selfish in my opinion. If a man is not right for you because of his finance, you're not right for a man if you don't love him. |

The man is financially stable .... for life? Your bf is not financially stable... for life? Your bf loves and cares for you... you both understand each other and you love him in return. Does Mr Stable love you?...and care for you?... and understand you? I already know you don't love him... if you marry it's all about the money that you hope.... hope you will enjoy. Will you?... what if you find out he has anger issues?.. or is a beast in other ways? The thing about your bf is he is trying.... not lazy.....not dependent... poor but have good morals.... humble....struggling... not enough money to marry the one he loves... on the verge to lose her... but has not gone into robbery nor kidnapping nor 419 to get himself out of the financial ditch. Look at the character of the man you have... does Mr Stable has such? Your guy has what it takes to make it in life... what he hasn't got as yet is the opportunity. Is this not the kind of character you want for your kids? I said my piece. |

frozen70:How many men marry broke ass girls and support them in their lives compare to women? Selfish gender, when a woman has money is the moment she don't need a man, or when she is rich she will not date a struggling guy but be looking for rich guy, you think men are stupid Abi? 2 Likes 1 Share |

It's a tricky situation. All I can say is my sister was in the same stuff. Guy had nothing and he's edo, we are Igbos, my sis loves the guy and he loves her but another ịgbo guy was coming for her hand but she's comfortable with who she bonds with. Initially we didn't support her but since she made up her mind to be with him we had no other choice. She practically financed her wedding herself with little support from her hubby. But today they are very happy together plus he has a job now. These things are tricky Sha. 14 Likes 1 Share |

[quote][/quote] I will like to let you know that both conditions you stated have their pros and cons. The man with money today but without love can love you later and even more than the man you love today. The man you love today but without money can become rich later and even richer than the man that has money today. Conversely, the man that loves you today can hate you tomorrow when money comes. He can go gallivanting, womanising etc and rub it on your face. The man that is rich today can become extremely poor tomorrow, so poor to a fault and become completely helpless. Also, tendencies for domestic violence cannot be overlooked in both cases when situations or conditions turn around. However, what you need is God. Don't get carried away by their present conditions. Don't lean on your own understanding. We have a God that sees the ending from the beginning. Ask him to direct your choice. If you have to fast, go to mountain, please do. Tell God to show you a sign to corroborate your choice and I tell you you will be grateful for it someday. Once again, take your mind off their present status. In stead, look out for what the future holds for them. Only God can help with this. Shalom!! 2 Likes 2 Shares |
