It depends on the level of poverty. If it is so low, it might be difficult for the relationshop to survive(this is however, dependent on the characters/personalities involved in the relationship/marriage) However, relationship/marriage is more enjoyable when there is adequate finance. 8 Likes |

How do you define poverty? 1 Like |
| Re: Can True Love Exist In Poverty ? by Acidosis(m): 9:29am On Jul 16, 2014 |
There is absolutely no relationship between poverty and love. Love does not come with "conditions". When you love someone because ..., then it's not Love. "For God love the world, that he gave ... When you LOVE, all that goes through your mind should/would be what to give not what to get. Unfortunately, this concept has been bastardized. What can you give? Time? Commitment? Faithfulness?... All these come before s. €x and gift/money. 64 Likes 1 Share |

For love to be "true", it MUST be unconditional. In other words, artificial considerations such as wealth, beauty, status, 'swag', etc. should not underpin the feeling of love. After all, isn't that the basis for the saying, 'love is blind'? Anyways, considering that the majority of people - including couples - in Nigeria (and the world in general) are poor, it would be somewhat unreasonable to suggest that "true love" does not exist in their relationships. In fact, one might even argue that "true" love can only exist in poverty and misery - since such unpleasant conditions reinforce the unconditional essence of love in its purest form. 37 Likes |

Yes it can. It depends on the foundation of ur relationship. In poverty u can make the most of what u have. More so, if u both are contented and maintain your own lane, why not? It also depends on what the couple sees as important in their relationship. I can date a poor man and enjoy the relationship wella. Life is not stagnant you know. Humans are intrepid we carry on.  13 Likes |

Acidosis:I'm not in any relationship. Do u imaging yourself loving someone for no reason since you stated that “I love you because... ” is not love... I just don't think it is possible. |

maputohq:uncommon but it happens. I don't think its proper to love someone because they have something you love. What you love about her could fade away. When you love HER (not something about her); then she becomes a part of you. This kind of love never dies even after death. 7 Likes |

Op,you may want to define Poverty in this case,because there are thousands of poor people in Nigeria who are happily married. Some of them don't even know that they are poor, because they are satisfy with what they have. Also its depend on the mindset of the couple involve. 18 Likes |

Dorrobucci: How can u live a happy life when you can't be able to provide for your patner.A happy life begins when you're able to provide for yourself. Provision in the context of Love is not all about money. You can provide smile, happiness, trust, affection, etc. Every other thing like money, food can be gotten even outside the relationship. 6 Likes |

I don't really know but what I can tell y'all is that I'm from a 'normal' family... by normal I mean not poor not rich. That kinda thing. But I wasn't getting the gals until I became a 'laptop boy'... People's mentality when going into relationships these days are "what can he/she offer me" and that's the reason there is a lot of hurt and heartbreaks. I don't fool with gals, I only approach you if I like you genuinely but I notice that all the gals I've been with, only have eyes for the money. It all depends on individual mentality. 1 Like |

Cecediva: Can true love exist in poverty? Your topic should have read "Can True Love Exist In wealth" cos true love is actually found when you're broke and when you become so rich so many fake love will abound even from the members of your family!! 18 Likes |

Yungwizzzy:An elderly man told me that if you want to know a 'true' woman,or if a woman really loves,just be 'broke' for a while, or tell her that you don't have some money at hand,her reaction will tell you alot. Some ladies have their love based on materials things! |

The truth is 'YES' love can exist with poverty. Love in itself is unconditional and therefore poverty will not in any affect the existence of 'true love' But... It is also true that money (finance, wealth) will go a long way to help sustain love and also keep it away from temptations and eventually 'cheating'. In our days we find a girl who 'loves' her poor bf/husband who is jobless or earning 'peanuts', but she sells her body or plays one or two runs so as to cater for her needs and sometimes suport the guy. If the guy was well to do, I doubt if she will have any solid reason to be tempted, moreso cheat. So, inasmuch as we know that poverty has no direct link with love, it sure can 'indirectly' affect it just like it affects almost all arears of life even in our relationship with God. Like they say 'Money is a defence' even against heartbreak. 6 Likes |
