8 Years Of Relationship And Not Even A Proposal From My Boyfriend by abigail11(f): 12:44pm On Mar 03, 2021 |
I have been dating this guy for 8 years now. My relationship with him started since my university school days. Ever since we graduated and started working, I have been expecting him to propose to me, which he didn't. When I confronted him, he said he needs a tangible source of income first before he will marry me. His current salary is 60k, yet he doesn't want us to go into marriage now. I personal told him that we can manage what we have and plan our life together since I'm also working. But he said no, his reason is that he doesn't want us to suffer. My problem is this: 1. Time is not on my side 2. He want to make millions before he can marry me, what if it takes more years to do that? 3. I'm ready and he is not ready. Please I need advise. I don't know what to do. 58 Likes 8 Shares |

Marriage is not all life is about Focus on building yourself first... have a personal vision and drive... if you find another person along the way you move on If he happens to be ready then you marry But don’t marry him because he’s available and you’re “running out of time”.... who gave you time table?? Focus on your personal life and all will fall in place 492 Likes 44 Shares |

![]() Must he be the one to propose to you? if he doesn't do it, you can do the needful. Go get a ring, kneel down and propose to him after all the future is female according to Saphiere. 284 Likes 28 Shares |

she gave me like 5missed call this morning and was like, I only send money for upkeep and don't even call to check on them.. That I only call to talk to my kids whenever she is not at home... This is someone that left when I Had financial issues,she no even look back.. She don roam the whole place and realized, men out there are only for the Bleep and not settling down.. She now wants to come back to me, the Boda ode she left.. Young woman, leave the man to decide hsi life.. You are only clamoring for proposal and thereafter wedding because you want to settle down cos age is no longer on your side.. After marriage and he is not doing OK, na una go still mount pressure on the poor man.. So many ladies of nowadays use marriage as a front.. Once they pitch their tent with a man, they now start coded runs because they know they have a home. I thank God for opening my eyes cos I too suffer for woman hand.. Believe me, na married women fornicate pass.. Leave the young man to arrange and organize his life and don't distract him from becoming who he wants to be... One thing I like about the male gender is,we are just like wine, the older, the better 405 Likes 44 Shares |

Sweetheart I'm on his side on this,its always wise for a lady never to date a man in her age group, a man must be stable financially before thinking marriage and he already made you understand that,the only mistake you made is dating him.Since he's not ready please look for someone who's ready and settle down with him,never let your emotions direct your thinking in marriage issues.Please let him go so as not to waste more time as you already have. Follow this tips:Cut off from a relationship that has no head way after six months to avoid stories that touch.As for me I already resolve never to date a man below 50yrs because most Nigerian men below 50 are still struggling.Such a messed up country 99 Likes 8 Shares |

Buy the ring and propose to him. Tell him he doesn’t need to pay dowry and to forget about elaborate wedding. Infact plan the wedding and make a realistic budget. Then you will see that the Lord is good at all times. Congrats in advance 41 Likes 3 Shares |

The guy meant well for you. With the way the economy is, settling down in marriage is a task many men dread of entering. 60k monthly is jus 720k annually. Price of everything is rising everyday in this shithole. The guy loves you, but he wants a secured future for you and yur unborn kids 110 Likes 5 Shares |

Few months to graduation, na so my gf started persuading me for marriage. She said her savings from N-Power salary would go a long way while we seek for better offers (not knowing the first set beneficiaries would be discarded last year). I know she's so concerned about getting married early,,,,@23. I just advised her to look for someone else that I wasn't ready financially. She did & got married last year. Sincerely,,,, if not for one kind stain wey dey her white, I for force myself into the marriage coz the girl is 70x better than Zzor ![]() 111 Likes 4 Shares |

he loves you and wants more for the 2 both of you. 60k in this economy is nothing. when you guys marry and responsibilities starts to pile up, it might not be funny. Y'all can start doubling up now....start trying some new business ventures and all. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Please don't force a man into marriage when he is not ready cos it doesn't end well most times. Tell him you can't wait anymore and move on with your life. I know when women are getting advance all the talk about is marriage, marriage, don't let despiration push you to force a man to marry you. 24 Likes 2 Shares |
