Trust or no trust, men are more likely to disgrace themselves and their generations to come...

mimzy:
exactly. so a business relationship should not make her lower her standards

Jadekitana:
I don't see anything wrong in doing business with an ex o! In serious business there's no form of friendship. Rules should be followed, just have it in mind you dealing with a total stranger and not an Ex.

Before I can allow my spouse to do biz with my ex....I have to ponder on these questions..

* How much do I trust him?
* How often will they meet & where?
* Am I going to be cool with their phone conversations?
* Is he easily swayed?
* Is this business worth the worry?
* What is the gestation period of this business?

Frankly, it wont be easy to watch them do business together cos my man is only human. The fact that they have a history together makes it harder. It's much easier to work with someone who u'v got no history with (chances of cheating is minimal). Everything still boils down to TRUST.

My honest thought... I'd rather they don't do biz together.

Sweetie, you have a point, but let us assume that this lady wants to do biz with a neutral guy, is she not still gonna be exposed to the same cons as her ex boyfriend too.

They would go for meetings, it might stretch far into the night.
They might travel together...etc.

They have history together botyom line ... If i see my ex again yes there will be hate but one always rememebere the good times if he preys on that then there will be trouble .

I had a conversation with an ex , his with someone. Now even has a kid , we chat now and then but everytime we talk he always wanna remenise n he knows me well .. He keeps asking to meet i have refused numerous times why ? even tho i hate him i wont put myself in a position were he can work brain on me again just to get his leg over or feul his ego wteva the case ..

He wants to meet for drinks . Why? Drink n do what ? Even tho i have clean intentions guys misread signs the fact that i will show up will make him think yea she still loves me and all sorts.


But its just my opinion sha
I wont do it .. Even the ones claiming they would must have some slight issues.. Lol wt next you might aswell get your ex to pick wedding dress, make him best man seff .. Just me mimz i cant i wont allow it . They can be cordial to each other from distance thats about it

Need i remind you that getting a loan in Nigeria for a medium scale business owner is just lyk putting a camel through the eye of a needle.
Even if you are able to get the loan, are you aware that the least interest that will be incurred on the sum loaned to you is 22%. Is your girl even guaranteed that amount of profit on her monthly/annual sales?

hmm, you better put sentiments aside and look at it from a proper perspective.

BumBae:

Pls one red bottom for her

Hurry up

SAINTSAMURAI:
yeah ure right, and im aware of that, there is a way we can put heads together and pay back the loan, even though her annual profit aint enough, i can still take from my own money, together with her money and pay back the loan, afterall the business is for our benefit and the gain of the family.

SINXU:
Depends on the amount of money involved

The emboldened makes you a BAD BUSINESS MANAGER. One of the basic features of a good business is sustainability. A business should be able to thrive on its own, you should not use your personal money to maintain it except you are considering expansion. Or for how long will you keep doing that?? By so doing, you aint even encouraging your wife to be firm and prudent.

[b]I was listening to a female friend lament yesterday about how her fiancé has simply refused to let her partner with her ex-boyfriend in business.
She is into mini importation of baby and toddler clothing, food, diapers and accessories. This ex of hers is based in U.S.A and would be relocating to Nigeria soon. They reconnected few months back and got talking. The business is actually on the verge of collapse as she was badly affected mainly by the increase in dollar-naira exchange rate and other personal reasons.

The fiancé of hers is a working class but his income is meagre hence his incapability to assist her. The ex on the other hand has stated that he just wants a strictly business relationship with all the necessary legal paper work in place. Would it suffice to say that they (my friend and the ex) broke up over four years ago?

Here is my own take on this issue, maybe God actually brought them (my friend and ex) together back then for business purpose and they missed it and decided to go sexual (yes they had carnal knowledge of each other while the relationship lasted) instead of platonic. Maybe God brought them back together now to fulfill His real plan for their lives (as business partners).

Common, times are so hard!!! Opportunity comes knocking just once. This business is her sole source of income and it would be unfair to just throw it away simply because her fiancé is not comfortable with it.

As long as boundaries are established, feelings tucked away, each knows exactly what they and the other are bringing to the table. Yes, there would be frictions, but as long as they are both disciplined, it should work.

I stand to be corrected, I’m open to other opinions but this is my honest take on this issue. Over to you fellow Nlanders, would you allow your spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend do business with an ex?[/b]

The guy should start shopping for another wife. No pretence here pls, guyman has lost that girl. All I see is selfishness here. How dare my wife to be bring up such a demonic idea. Even if it will turn us to dangote? Infact, as for me, its over! I hate senseless people and pray god i will never entangle with them. Maybe the guy is even unreasonable and wayward too.

100Cents:


Story for the gods.

pinceprinz:
