Good day nairalanders,,
l met a beautiful and excellent girl during my Nysc, honestly she is everything l need in a woman,
We finish our service last year and started life in Abuja, she live with her sister and doing her own business while l live alone in the same town,, The problem now is that this girl mother is already pressurizing her for marriage,, she is 27 yrs and the mother is already making her looks like she is too old for marriage,, yesterday she came to my house looking all moody and worried,, when l enquired she told me her mom is asking her when the man she is dating will come home for introduction,, l took my time to explain things to her,we can't go into any marriage without been financially stable,l have a business l am running and l am looking at stability of that business in 3-4yrs time,,l told her l wont give you any specific date on when to come see her people ,,but l assured her if she stick with me God knows l wont think of any other woman during marriage,,, she told me her plan is to get married at 25yrs and l told her things dont always work out the way we plan them,, honestly l dont want to lose this girl and l also dont want to rush anything,, what do l do nairalanders...

1. If you are financially stable now, will you like to marry her?
2. As you are still struggling now, will she agree to marry you?
3. If she accepts you the way you are now, are you ready to marry her?

how financially stable do you mean? is it to be able to afford a big wedding,so that people can wine and dine or have a moderate wedding wedding and put more focus on after-marriage life?
is she ready to work or support ur kind of work and support ur dreams?if yes,Man, u can go into marriage now. And if u like,u can decide on when to have kids.
alot of pple have entered marriage with very little financially but made it well at long run.
don't be surprised when this lady leaves for another man.not because she doesn't love you but u ain't ready.
THE CHOICE IS YOURS!!

My advice. Let her go. Who knows she might find a husband that is rich who will eventually help your destiny through her. And of course, you still get to bleep her unto say you get the code. Las Las you no lose.

Just kidding.

Good advice now.

Let her go. There will always be someone better for you when you are ready. Don't feel like you are losing her. Good girls plenty when a man is made.i mean real good girls not just girls that are after you money. I mean hardworking and cool girls. Think ham yourself, if making it was easy, why is she not made herself. Baba let her go and focus on your life.

Most women are the one holding their husband’s riches.

Think of obi Cubana and Emoney. They had nothing before they got married but now. And many. Our formal landlord told us his own story that he was even squatting on someone’s house when he got married but now a millionaire. He has houses and a limited liability company. So u never can tell if she is ur succes star.

Good luck

Who told you she will not see someone to pay her bride price in 2 or 3 months?

Remove that thought



You don't want her to go and you dont want to marry her now

By the time you make it in that 3-4 years you are envisaging is it not someone girl you will collect to
Re: Should l Succumb To Pressure And Marry This Girl? by Timekeeper452: 1:48pm On Jul 21, 2022
You mustn’t do traditional marriage or anything . If within you, you know she is an honest woman and you can’t replace her, go meet her people and at her dowry, shouldn’t be more than 200k. Then you both start hustling normally and when things are stable enough for you, you can do proper marriage ceremony if you both wish.

Unfortunately you have no assurance she can bank on. Marriage is not all about when everything is set. What if your acclaimed business collapse two weeks into your marriage?

Bro follow your mind, the worst mistake I made was to bring my relationship here while monickers would confuse you the more.

Nairaland ruined my relationship and I am today recycling without meeting good girls.

You are man enough, you should know what you want.

Take the risk, Life's a dice.

Dey there dey do calculations until you born pikin with Down's syndrome (God forbid).

My advise: read this book "One minute millionaire." You will learn that you can make it as soon as you want provided you're determined to. 3 - 4 years is too much and suggests to me that you're not even confident in that business of yours.

Watch it, she will be preyed on by her desperation. Her mother telling her to go bring a man, does she think it’s that easy or she can just go and grab any man on the street.

Women should also strive to be atleast marriageable (in a bit of financial freedom to compliment their men) before proposing marriage but unfortunately most don’t look that way.

You’ve already highlighted the possible outcomes that what if in her sojourn of impatience nd she still doesn’t get married in 3-4 years, I bet she will still want to be manipulative nd run back to you wic I bliv u are wiser with what to do.

Leave her, to her decisions and whatever she decides don’t blame her,,, she’s right, you’re right. Just wish her well. I had this kind of talk with a 25yrs old nd she’s been on her journey of merriment. I’d wished her well.

Oga stop this talk

You are just looking for reason for yourself only

Let me advice you

Move close to God first and let her too, if you are having sex together stop it now so you two can think deep and better

Start going to the girls house as her suitor let them know you, if she doesn't agree then you two are just deceiving yourself

Involve your parents and let them know her too

And see how it goes from there
Re: Should l Succumb To Pressure And Marry This Girl? by sexyto(m): 2:00pm On Jul 21, 2022
I would advise you to go see the mum, informally at first and introduce yourself, discuss your timeline and the girl will be relieved,you would have vindicated yourself in case they disagree with you. Carry on from there.

Guyman never let your partner to pressure you into marriage when you are not financially ready!
You will live to regret it and she will always insult or demean you if she doesn't have the matured or understanding persona!
Stand your ground and refuse to be put in an uncomfortable situation that you are not mentally and financially prepared for!
If it means letting go of her,please do so for your sanity and peace of mind especially when the complain becomes constant!
You will still find another lady that is matured enough to understand what you are saying and willing to be patient until you are financially stable!
If i may ask...what are her contributions towards ensuring that you achieve that financial stability?

If you can pay house rent and take care of you both, you don't need a month extra.

At 27y, she IS OLD! Marry her IF YOU WANT TO, or let her go and pray that she finds her husband from God.

Why be with a woman if you have no immediate intention of marrying her? May God settle her into a right family.

As for you know that God created nothing like girlfriend.

Any lady will succumb to her mother's pressure.

Genuine advise, good women are scarce...If you are sure she is one...Do little, relax and chase the money.

She has her biz, you have yours..You both are graduate, what else are you waiting for.

Another man is taking her off your grip if you dull...If you loose a good woman, everything go scatter scatter... cheesy

I don tell you finish...Pay her dowry and take her home...You can still do wedding of 20people..

When bigger money enter, you insult the money by throwing a bigger party..

Age is not on her side..

The best advice I will give to you now is:
1. Do not marry under pressure, it doesn't end well.
2. If you are not ready for marriage (financially and other vital aspects), do not go into it.
3. Discover your purpose in life and check if the lady in question can help you to fulfil your purpose in life.
4. Work on yourself (especially your weaknesses) and try to become a better person.

Remain blessed

The law should allow all these girls marry themselves in the registry so that they dont miss their planned date of getting married .....because me I dont understand how you will want to marry with another person's money and contribution, yet will be fixing the time by yourself as if the person doesnt have a say....

what does she mean by telling you she planned to marry by 25 as if you are slowing down her life and she could have done it one her own....

.look oga.. Women will always make it look like they are doing you a favour by being with you...its their classic way of getting what they want...
even sex...they will make it look like they dont want it and that they are just giving their body to you to help you..

She can even tell you she left many guys for you this year.....all na format....

Don't do anything under pressure...she will leave or cheat you if you can't cater for her .... She probably has little or nothing to contribute to the ceremony or marriage....its all on you...

So..if you are not ready...let her see reasons with love why you both should wait....if she refuses..oga let her go... women always have plan b these days...
They have always had plan B. There is strong possibility that someone is already on the corner and she wants to exhaust plan A before migrating.
