Why I Can't Marry Below My Economic Class. by Negroid001(m): 6:23pm On Feb 18
Me and my younger sister were having our usual afternoon gossips and gists and something came up.
I asked after a close friend of hers whom i know to be very affluent and she erupted that i should stop asking after her that she doesn't support me dating any of her close friends. I asked her why, she said i have nothing to offer her friend. I mean, imagine, I'm some years away from 30, working with several firms of which 1 is among the top 10 highest grossing in the country and this big head has the audacity to tell me i can't hook her rich friend.

I take us down memory lane to the reason why she ditched her immediate ex, she told me the dude was struggling and she didn't see much prospect in him, her childhood crush oo. I asked her what's the difference between me and her? She couldn't come up with a valid response. She kept on hollering that I'm supposed to be a provider. Provider my ass.

As a man, I've set the standard of not getting involved with women below my economic class or earnings and i see nothing wrong with it. If women see marrying above one's class as normal, we men shouldn't accept anyone below par also.

Woman wey no get shingbai for account go dey give man wey dey earn conditions, what absurdity!

Let's stop fooling ourselves with love shi. Marriages and relationships are transactional.
It's an arrangement and one has to make the best of choices. What are you bringing to the table?

I blame low self esteemed men for putting a false sense of value on our women. The thing dey mess with their brain. The only thing most of them have to offer is sex, nothing more.

Men, raise your standards!

No be lie op...

Every man's banny suppose get the kind muscle wey the guyman himself get. ....

Imagine dating a banny whose IQ is low angry. Like zero business IQ angry. Can't add any meaningful value to her man's life angry. Unfortunately, that's the kinda of bannies that are being reared and bred in this present generation....

When women get MONEY, many feel they don't need men.
but
when men get money, they want women or they want to provide for their families.


WHATEVER YOU CHOOSE just know that many who have no money may have wonderful character and true love with awesome loyalty... but once money comes, it may all change.


So choose wisely

Your sister and her friend are deep in Hypergamy, she is more loyal to her friend than you. But one thing I am sure of, their bet slip will cut if not today then tomorrow. By the time they are in their 30s their eyes will be clear

Besides she don see the shege wey i don dish out to many exes. She's protecting her friend angry

Any decision she makes, it's up to her. My own is to watch out for her. Marriage no be achievement for my family. Erryone is career eccentric, no pressures

It's the entitlement that irritates me. Iron sharpenth iron, rich makes rich richer, half makes half full. With our women ehn, broke and entitled makes upcoming become finished and they move on to the next victim.

You get point bro. To be on the safe side. Pick the best. Prevention is better than a cure.

A neighbor of mine got ditched by his young beautiful wife of over 18 years. The woman started making lil change from the depo business the husband opened for her.
Automatically, the man become ugly to her. She moved away with the kids. The man dey depression for like 1 year, he is better now tho.

If he married within his class, this wouldn't have happen. Women from struggling homes have no heart, their loyalty is based on how well you can keep providing.

Re: Why I Can't Marry Below My Economic Class. by GreatAchiever1: 8:05pm On Feb 18
OP. Your sister wasn't lying; one of your main responsibilities as a husband to your family is to provide for them. Men are supposed to be the breadwinners. Yes, your spouse can help you because she is a helper, but she does not always have to be the family's provider.

It just seems to remind me of certain women who get upset when informed that a woman should keep herself pure and chaste and not show her body parts just because it's in style. I'm not sure why you were upset when you heard that males are the providers.


And also, what is this you say that you don show women in the past shege; You are so far from living a manly life if you consider that type of life to be flex. It's beneficial to have expectations and know what kind of woman you want, so when you see one, go for it. On the other hand, if you meet a woman with whom you know you won't have a future together, don't even consider starting a relationship with her. However, what about you? Are you improving who you are? Will it bother you if your daughter marries a man who is similar to you? If not, you should get better. Recall that you are a male in the relationship, and that a man is the leader. A leader establishes the direction the relationship will take and, if applicable, will lead by example.

Bros I understand where you are coming from but that doesn't stop the fact that she is deep in Hypergamy else her basis for opposing your plan would have been for the fact that you have broken the heart of some of the ladies you dated earlier. Moreover, ladies like dating ruthless guys, Nevertheless it's hard for a typical Nigerian lady who often have entitlement mentality to date guys earning close to them except when time seems not to be on their time. Also no matter what Marriage is a universal achievement for Ladies including your sister

You are wrong. Women are women, high or low class. He bought her with money and I'm betting he is a simp who never commanded her respect. You think because you married a rich babe, the union go last? No guarantees.

I understand your point about associating with broke, entitled women. They can be savages. Just make sure the rich ones are not entitled and above all, make sure she is someone who you listens to you.

Any responsible woman that comes from a good home has no business billing a man she's not married to. She should go and meet her father. I understand gifts and stuffs and that's all. What are you paying her for? Is she a prostitute?

Im always amused to hear young men talk. You think you can handle an equal or higher earning woman? There is a reason men marry below their economic bracket.

Women will rubbish you if you are not favouring them economically. One day, they'll walk out on you, knowing very well they'll be fine without you. Half of the decisions will be taken by them. They will demand equality. You don't want to be in that shoe bro.
