acidtalk: Please go ahead and marry the RICH but warn your parents and family not to come and cry on nairaland when the man uses you for money rituals when he is becoming broke.

So many people are just too short sighted that's why more people are miserable in their marriages today than ever before.
She should make her own choices. They won't be living her hell for her you know.

septua: Hi.i am young woman in my early 20s. I have been seeing a young man of 30 for about a year now and about 2 months ago he started talking about marriage plans although he hasn't proposed but i took that as one.

He has rented a 3 bedroom apartment and promised to take me to his parents towards the end of the year. Long story short we planned to get married next year.

I trust him although i fear he might disappoint me as he is still struggling. But 3 weeks ago my people called me home from were i was doing my service to meet a man that has come for my hand in marriage. The man is handsome and wealthy but he is 16 years older than me and that alone makes me uncomfortable. Plus i dont really like him.

we seem not to have much in common, But my mum and my aunty have been begging me to marry him as we are sort of going through financial breakdown and they see him as a kind of saviour. Plus my mums pastor says he has seen the marriage in vision before now.

The marriage will be done in less than 4 months if i say yes, And if i say no then i will have to wait for my man till mid next year.

So i ask please will you consider your family and go into the marriage or wait for your love.

Since your Mum's Pastor can see Vision, so why didnt he see one in which your Mum find ways of making her own money rather than pimping her Daughter? One thing I hate hearing is that word BEG.. Pls tell me what has begging got to do with this? Since y'all believe so much in begging, then why dont you BEG your Mum and the rest to allow you decide who to marry?.. Prostitutes Sleeps with Total Strangers for Money and material things and now they are Begging you to Marry a Total stranger for Money and Material things. Please tell me the difference? If you allow your Mum Sell you to that Rich stranger then whatever happens at the end, you have yourself to blaim. Begging you to marry a Stranger indeed! These people just dont get it

Gurl, you sink and swim with the man you love. When the hulabaloo (not sure of that spelling) is over, you ALONE will live with your misery. Take a decision that will make you happy and a decision that if you are unhappy thereafter, you can look back and tell yourself, 'it was my choice'. There is no guarantee that the rich man will remain rich or that your struggling boyfriend will not step up his game and start doing well, experiences abound along those lines. My views.

Are these things still happening?why would parents use their offspring as a bait to financial freedom?my advice,pls Marry the man your heart choose,your parent wont live with u forever.dont mind them,but pls do it politely when refusing their request,in order not to create unnecessary animosity in the family..a Marriage is to be Enjoyed,and not Endured...

As of ur pastor, i believ in REALL ONES and to me they are there to confirmed what u have seen. pls be wise let him deceive u not in d name of 'vision' and why can't u go extra mile in prayer and to genuine men of God who will not lie JUST TO CONFIRMED IT.

LEARN FROM THIS STORY.

I was dating a young girl (Edith) and we really loved each other. But along the line while she was in Port Harcourt, her parents called her to come home for an important meeting and she went.

When she came back from Umuahia, she told me that HER PARENTS ASKED HER TO MARRY ONE OPPRESSOR ( A WEALTHY GUY) Who based in Lagos and haue come to ask for her hand in marriage. I couldn't stop her because she came from a poor home and her parents wanted the money without considering their daughter's happiness.

Three days to her tradhtional marriage, she came to invite me, passed the night with me and we made love. But i didnt attend the ceremony. Though everything went on well.

But a year later the man died and she already had a daughter for the man and THE FAMILY OF THE MAN CHASED HER AWAY WITH THE DAUGHTER.

Now the poor girl who was forced against her will, is suffering with no one to help. I have search for her but couldnt find her.

SO ASK YOURSELF IF YOU ARE READY FOR IT BEFORE GIVING IN TO YOUR PARENTS DESIRE.

Then come and tell me their answer undecided

Re: My Family Wants Me To Marry For Money. by Mmiriariugwu: 6:36pm On Sep 06, 2012
ndcide: if i say that the OP is not ready for marriage some persons will take it too far. go and develop yourself first. befor you get married you should be abel to hear from your God.(chi). you want to base your marital decision on the opinion of nairalanders? thats crazy.

that you date a guy does not make him the right person for you. poor or rich. may i ask, are you 100 percent sure the rich guy is not the right man for you? who says he cant be. are you 100percent sure the other guy won't change his mind about you in future?. leave nairaland alone and go on your knees and pray and stop this rubbish. you want to get married into another family blindfolded? or as blind as a bat? or from the opinion of strangers. Do you know your God?

Marriages are way-too complex that all psychological theories have failed. and people are failing every day. Go and pray seriously. if possible fast for days. and God will speak to you. don't be lazy. God is more interested in your marriage than you are interested in it. so ask him some how he'll speak and give you peace. whatever happens in future you'll be consoled you heard from God. All human reasoning have failed in issues of marriage. don't reason like the multitude coz you'll get what they get/have.

brother u've said it all.who says the rich man can't b d ideal man?If she's backing out because of age difference it s a difrent thing.Why r some folks so sceptical about his forune not lastin are the God?One thing is certain here, d man is ready&willing,as for ur "loverboy",2moro is uncertain!

OP the fact that you are giving this a thought is kinda disappointing for an educated person.

Even if that your guy disappoints you, that doesn't mean you should marry just anybody talk more of an old man because of money.

If your mum and aunt love him that much then they should marry him.
