How Important Is Money In A Relationship? by lalasticlala(m): 6:31pm On Aug 27, 2014
No doubt, money is a desideratum in a relationship. But, some couples started with nothing, but today they are very much comfortable.

Many guys are unmarried because of lack of financial stability. The high cost of bride price and other things associated with traditional marriage rites dont even encourage some low income earners to start thinking of marriage.

You see babes dump their guys for richer ones.

Below is a link to one of my threads which talks about women that said they can't date any poor man, in fact they detest poor men.

It's captioned: The 9 Nollywood Actresses That Are Strongly Allergic To Poor Men.

So what's your take on money in a relationship?

How important is money in a relationship?

We all need money to live. We need money to have fun. If you are truly in love with someone, money will not matter. I am 27, not married and I've dated men of all statuses...broke, rich, in between (my level). I will be completely honest, I had the best relationship with the broke guy. We were really in love, we had great sex and always had fun. Enjoyed his company the most and I still think about him. Other factors played a part and we broke up, but I always think of him as the one who got away.. In my opinion if you love someone, you love someone. If money is important to you, then you will find it to be important in relationships. If you have money and your partner doesn't, that can cause stress. And vice versa... At the end of the day, what is important to you? I say this all the time, but if you are happy, truly happy then that is ALL that matters : ) good luck!

very, if you want there to be a future.i would immediately dump a guy if he had a gambling problem also i would tend not to even start anything with a guy without a steady job or tertiary eduction or good business prospect. you gotta think long term when the honeymoon period wears off

Money is a big factor
Money alone doesn’t create happy relationship
There are lots of rich people that have divorce their husband and wives
Do u people share same values and moral
loyal , supportive, giving, Respectful, considerate, fair,not me, me person, not self center person
Your and her kids are her frist prority in her life

Believe it or not, money trumps looks and sometimes love. You need good money to maintain a healthy relationship as it's very important and it's matters alot... But that's none of my Business.

Money makes the world go around.

Sure money is good in a relationship but it must not be the first priority a guy/girl looks into before considering marriage.

What of if the money disappear later on. Who'll you blame? Will you be like Job wive?

Money shouldnt be that important but society has put money on a higher pedestal than love

look at shade okoya or remi tinubu...their husbands have one thing in common, they look like they auditioned for shrek but were too ugly for the part and have tons of GWAP

university girls today are not interested in their mate but they want a ready made man

for the few in this our society who do not put money over love, there is a different kind of vibe there...more happiness in the relationship

for instance i know a guy who was dirt broke as at 24 months ago but has a growing business that has already made N10 million this year

his babe used to come visit him even in that his broke state and give him prayers, love and MONEY (i know its hard 2 beliv bt there are some good naija girls left)

the guy is planning the wedding now...and is buying her a car etc...

she didnt know he would be this better off 24 months ago, but she gave love a chance

in Naija of today...most girls would rather go to vgc and sleep with oyinbo man dog than to give love a chance

I don't believe a couple can start with nothing. It is untrue and impossible, there must be something.


Money is important as the person you are dating. You will not understand this if a naija babe has not dealt with you.

Money is damn important in a relationship.

Try shagging on a bare floor, I bet you'll appreciate the California king bed.

Try jumping on and off a Molue with your boyfriend, the way the conductor go shout for am sef go make you lose respect for am, then you'll appreciate an Aston Martin.

Try living in face me I slap you with your boyfriend and see your boyfriend queue to use the toilet for morning, then you'll appreciate banana Island.


Try smoking garri and groundnut till your vision gets impaired, then you'll appreciate continental meals.


Bottom line, Money is the 'In thing'
Don't watch him try to make it alone.
Help him.
Make money together.

I don't subscribe to such any babe that dump a man when he was nothing shouldn't be given a sec chance. I don't know how ppl reason oh but I can forsee a man's future by mere friendship and if he's the smart type I bet he can't be poor in life wid little luck and God on his side.
