You don't know me! I love him. Why would I betray him? I'll take a bullet for him if I have to. He wants to marry me! The joint account is to save for us both. That's why Nigerians are where they are, we are planning long term. You can't build a future on love alone. I'm being reasonable.

You will take bullet for him? cheesy cheesy cheesy talk another thing biko. The same thing my ex told me only to run away with yahoo guys grin grin

He doesn't feel comfortable saving it with you. Give him options - piggyvest is there. AIICo target saving, etc.

Mods, take this to the front page. Thank you.

Hi everyone! I have a boyfriend, we've been together for a year. I absolutely love him, he's my whole world! And that's the reason I'm pressuring him to save, if we're going to have a future together. And he's down for it, he makes nothing less than 200k monthly. I'm still a student, searching for a decent job. I can't invest sh** presently but I hope to start soon. Yesterday, I brought it up. I want him to send money monthly to my bank account, no matter how little. I'll save it for him. He's hesitating. He said I should be patient, he'll give me everything I need but he wants more time. I don't want to ruin our relationship but I need his co-operation. I'm scared he might leave me, after I've given him the best years of my life. I subtly threatened him that my family would force me to marry a Nigerian but he made a joke out of it, saying I would never, that I'm his... embarassed

What should I do?

NB: I've never taken a dime from him. He drinks often and I don't want him spending 'our future' on alcohol! I'm way better at saving.

I'm worried if I press the subject, he'll get mad at me.

I also told him I want to leave Nigeria, he thinks it's a good idea and I also told him I can't afford it alone. He said he needs time.

Doesn't he love me? Should I let it go? Or insist we resolve this?

I can see that some people are insulting you.

Though your request was somewhat awkward, I feel it's coming from a sincere heart.

Don't pressure him. If you are truly sincere, time tell. But have to show reasons why he should.

He should save in your bank, I don't understand did he tell you his bank has problem or he doesn't know how to save money. Madam keep your eyes out of his money and focus on your education if not, no guy would take you serious.

This I have seen.
That's true, I even thought she's working in a bank and she wants him to open account in her bank.

she is not working, she is now suggesting him saving inside her account, what happened to piggyvest ,Cooperative.

No Nigerian man can take any bullet for any woman except accidental discharge.

Just be calming down ok.
Don't say that o bro, I've heard of a case in which some armed robbers attacked a newly wedded couple on their way to honeymoon. The criminals shot and killed the man cos he was obstructing their access to his car, initially the wife was said to have complied but once they shot her husband she went haywire and they had to shoot her too to escape from the scene. Unfortunately, the newly wedded died on the scene.

1. Another person, one who is not your child, isn't a dog that you are meant to train to suit you. lipsrsealed

2. Your OP suggests otherwise as instead her intention is to further the idea of a future she intends for herself using his resources. lipsrsealed

3. Again, you are not meant to change the person you are dating. Dating is meant to give you an opportunity to grow to know and possibly learn how to accommodate that person as is. The moment you begin to believe it is your place to change the person you are dating, you go from dating to being a lover to being a master over such a person and the outcome isn't always as pleasing as many like to pretend it can be. undecided
4. No jumping to conclusions here. Just expressing how appalled I am by the fact that in the year 2023, we still have women who can't seem to define their future independent of that of a boyfriend. undecided
She has attachment/abandonment anxiety which she manages with control freakery
I suspect she has weak bonding with parents

Babe, aren't you doing too much? I know you have the best intentions at heart, but an average Nigerian man would misinterprete this request of yours for collateral damage/tying him down and so on.

I think you can advise him to save/invest his resources, however, not in your account. Moreover, don't push it too much.

All the best!

Hold Press !! Save in your bank or Bank Account
Why should I save my money in your bank account ?

Dear - Its a red flag if the dude cant save money. If he gets mad when you bring up Money is another red flag.
Seriously reconsider your future with him.

Who taught you this? You should focus on making your own money. If you feel he's not serious, quit.

You won't even advise your own brother to save his money in a jobless girlfriend's account.

Although, you have good intentions but tell him to get a piggyvest account and take a plan that'll allow them to remove that amount every month from his account and he should also lock it.
