How Long Should A Woman Wait For A Man To Get His Act Together? by Nobody: 4:11pm On Dec 12, 2014
Everyone has dreams, goals, aspiration. But what do you do, guys, when the person you are dating has desire but never really does anything about it?

Let's say you've been dating a guy, ladies. He's perfect. He looks great, the sex is great, you get along perfectly but there's only one problem, he isn't doing much with his life. He has tons of aspirations and dreams but when it comes to getting up and achieving them dreams, it's a different story. He believes that one day he's going to make it,but it's clear to see that the drive isn't there. How long do you stay before you give up on him? Do you immediately assume that he's never going to amount to anything and cut him off immediately? Or would you stick with him and hope that he gets his act together? Would you help him get his act together? Should you help him get his act together?

If the lady is a career driven person and go getter she shouldn't even get involve in such relationship in the first place but if she' the type who lacks vision herself and one who wants to be a liability to the guy then she should manage him, they have things in common.

But generally a maximum a relationship should last is between 5-6 years, within 2years a woman should be able to determine where it's heading to

Hum.. .....

It depends on
Who she is
What she wants
What kind of definition are has for the relationship at hand
What's her self worth
Her goals and aspirations and that of the partner
. ..


But,
She shouldn't take marriage as a do or die affair.
She should make her happiness paramount to her.
She should celebrate her self by striving for goals and aspirations that would make her excell
She should not bow down to family pressure
She should not settle for less
She should not settle for a lazy man........that's if she herself is not lazy

For as long as she can wait, some women are intuitive, they can easily tell if the guy has potentials and can achieve, so if the love and trust is there, She can wait.

She waited for me for 10 years. Now we are married. Very comfortable, but she is still waiting for me,..I am not Dangote yet. And when I become Dangote, she'll still be waiting till I become Bill,..and...so on.

Misogynist2014:
Till she breathe her last grin

Haba.

A man like that will reduce a woman to his level, mediocrity.

He will just end up being a fool at 40.

A dream without action is just a wish. Na bed the dream go end.

No woman should waste her time with a laggard when she can help other men become Kings.

You should be a Michelle to a Barrack.

'The sex is good' yet u want to leave him and become a 2nd-hand product to another man. Fornication is still a sin. Stop glorifying this thing.


sorry for that..just that I hate singles glorifying it.

Back to your question, you guys are meant to be 'helpers-in-union' the Holy Bible calls you an helpmeet therefore if his spirit is down, you are meant to help him up.

Is he naturally lazy? If not, congrats, you can still help him get his acts together wink at least there is something that got you attracted to each other in the first instance..you wouldn't wanna lose all.that na grin
Correct all anomalies while still dating cuz when u enter that institution called marriage hoping he would change, ma sista, you are on a lonnnng tin..marriage is for better for worse. grin

Lastly, pray for him.

Such a man won't even appeal to me in the first instance
I have nothing in common with such a fellow
I am allergic to lazy ,efulefu men
Not my portion
