Do not despise the days of little beginning,. Many successful couples started with this type of beginning yesteryears, and they're having good lives today ( I can relate). That a guy is stinkingly rich today does not guarantee that he will die a rich man tomorrow, and for the fact that a man is struggling to make ends meet today does not mean that he will die a pauper. Many ladies had missed their God sent partners because of matters like this.

God bless you..

The lady I was introduced to marry reject me cos I stay in self on in kubwa and she lives in gwarinpa estate paying almost 500k seldcon..

Me de manage my 200k in kubwa and de run my old Uber and bolt.... It's well

I think that idea or ideology is completely wrong.
I got married in that same kind of room and I was about 15yrs ago.
We stayed in several diff one room.
But today I own about 6 flats and presently still have my own property I'm Lagos where I live.
If I choice to relocate tomorrow with my family abroad I will still buy a house.

It's not about the condition but what are u about to do I'm the condition.

It's not untill u stay in a 2 bedroom flat that u can get married.

It's a mentality with most Nigeria men and women. It's wrong.

To me it's better u start small.

But this person need a flat. I can't even imagine putting chair in a single bedsitter. When the thought of chair come to mind that you should be thinking of flat.

It is good that he has bought everything now.

Some people live in flats without some of these items of furniture.

When my wife and I moved to two bedroom flat at the birth of our first child, the sitting room was bare for almost a year. The only thing we had were our reading chairs and tables (plastic) which we then put in the sitting room, a 32-inch Plasma TV (my own) and a bedside fridge (my wife's). It was not easy filling up the flat thereafter.

Men like crying that women can't look past material things but even men can't look past the artificials in women.

We, ugly women have been quiet and watching on the side for so long. We have a voice too but make we observe finish first. Our pretty friends get picked first all the time. They take the best of men and leave us with scraps. Or should I say men give them their all and fall back on us.

The day the ugly women association of Nigeria will reclaim our voice, no man in this country will have peace, the internet will scatter. Men must look at our potentials of being pretty and stop choosing pretty girls above us.

When I married my wife four years ago, my apartment was not this tuuush. Few months after our wedding we moved to a better apartment and I am currently building my own apartment in a choice neighbourhood.
May God not allow us marry a lady with such mentality.
Men look out for that woman that will support your dreams and build with you.

An angry man is a nairaland broke dude

And what is wrong, criminal or evil about living in a single room, we need to start re- sensitizing ourselves from all these social media influences and nonetities who feel they can mislead the people becos they have data

it might shock you the bitch that posted that nonsense, her father and mother did not have half of what is in that one room she posted before they marry.

What if he owns a 14inches mattress? I bought a 12 inches for 80k last year. I dont think a bed is an achievemet, I have collegues who have all this luxuries, but a net balance of 500k!
I think you should look inwards to the potential and see if your man is a kind person and not someone who will never assist you or support you while he owns all luxuries.

Is that mattress on the floor? Because any man whose mattress is still on the floor is not ready for marriage.

Exactly. I started out like that too. In fact, my wife and I rocked that apartment when we were still dating. She would snap there and put on Facebook.

Now, we are completing our own house. Massive house. I made sure all the rooms are massive.

I guess there are not very many wise women like before. What many of them want now is an already made man.

Do they think that now that I am comfortable, I would go for one hungry girl, even if I were not married?

Never!

That is why my wife and I are inseparable. We started as friends and grew together in love and sacrifice.

I remembered when we would climb pole to change lines. We changed phases by unhooking our wire from a line without power and hooking it to a line with power. My wife learned how to do it and we had fun.

I am not saying every relationship must start like that, but no one should be despising humble beginnings. If you check many of these girls out, their parents may be living in conditions way below that of guys they broke shame.

So you do even know that there are many millionaires who reside in face me I face you? You do not know that many have gone from face me I face you to their very well built big houses.

Go and ask some of your political leaders of today how they started. Rotimi Amaechi lived in one room until he went to the state assembly. He even took camera men to visit his neighbors then and show how he started.

I met with the musician M.I two years ago in Accra. This dude is so down to earth and was on a Jean, tee shirt and face cap. If you don't know it's M.I, I swear most Accra girls will brush him off if he talks to them.

Women judge so much by appearance, and that's how many of them fork up. Imagine a girl ask me to hook her up with a guy, but she rejected him because he looks broke.

A church girl that I thought will have sense, but obviously church is just a mask. Asking how tall is he, what car he drives, and never a question about his character. I just knew right there say na gold digger be this one.

Dressing casually now is being broke. I'm exactly like you. Anytime I'm in Nigeria, I patronise local buka restaurant. I dislike those overpriced poshed places. Unless situation deserves.

And that's the best way to keep oneself off these leeches that sees materialism as only the qualifier of what a good man is. When one is filled with essence, trying to impress people won't be a feature of their behaviour.

Greetings comrade.

Any girl that finds that place comfortable also shouldn't be thinking of marriage

what is wrong with this apartment for God's sake? a lot of couple doing well today living in exotic houses started even lower than this, the thing is both should sit down and have a heart to heart discussion before embarking on this unending journey until death or domestic violence brings to an end. i started in a 2 bedroom apartment, not because i have so much money then, but that has been my plans all along, so it was easy when the time comes, it doesn't matter where people starts from but have serious plan in place and work hard to achieve such so you don't look at yourself and be the first to acknowledge that you have failed. good luck to all those who are planning to start small due to the meagre resources at their disposal. the Bible says "Though thy beginning may be small but thy later end shall be greatly increase"
