Lily4star: Most of us our parents had nothing when they met, some absolutely nothing when they even got married, sometimes even had to borrow to eat, only true love does that cos they both know the only thing constant in life is change and as time went on things got better and better for them, u ll be surprised what some wealthy families today went through before they got to where they are right now. That's true love, standing by eacthother nomatter what. Kudos to our Parents.

Exactly my dear, but hardly will u find that kinda love nowadays

Cecediva: Exactly my dear, but hardly will u find that kinda love nowadays

Might be rare though but still does exist

Cecediva: Spot on I still want to know if true love can still exist in this kind of condition.

Yes, I will still love you.

okparaugo:

Yes, I will still love you.

Lol...am not poor o .

Cecediva: Lol...am not poor o .

Thank God..

okparaugo:

Thank God..

Cecediva: How do you intend to tackle and uproot poverty fundamentally? Am waiting for your reply

Value system . Poverty is more pronounce where the value system of a family, society, and nation is warped. It is based on the sociological , philosophical and religious fabric of a society. What can a dollar buy you in Nigeria ( no matter the oil wealth ) ? A dollar will buy you something tangible in valued economies . This is what affordability entails. That is the Fundamental.

For instance, in my field of endeavor, if an open source software's like Android, programming languages/ other technologies is ventilating the adoption of technology to every nooks and crannies of the society today, it is a tip of an iceberg of what is to come.

Poverty is in the mind - You need a mental power to overcome it. Also, it has more to do with lack of basic infrastructure than things.

This is a thesis topic though ... No need to write an epistle here

Cecediva: Lmao

Can we be friends?

@topic. Yes it can

Acidosis:
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.

Even happiness is not determined by money.

True Love is pure! Therefore, it is independent of anything including money..

Simply Yes









No xplanation fr it

Dorrobucci: i understand ur point but 99 per cent of nigerian gals will never love you once you are poor. No sane girl in dis country will prefer a poor guy over a rich guy..never!

And when a "sane" girl prefers you because of your money, will you then be sure that she loves you?
Love is difficult to define. Poverty is also difficult to define. Let's not equate poverty to lack of money. The two are different.

Poverty = inability to provide for your needs and the one you love due to lack of responsibility.

I pray ooo!!! I always have dis believe that poor man has no idea... Its best u work to be successful and oda things follows,relationship inclusive #Gbam

As far as garri n groundnut dey

Largas: 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.

Gbam!

Yarn them "relationship/marriage is more enjoyable when there is adequate finance" & dat's the truth weather u guys agree or not

Cecediva: Can true love exist in poverty?

I have asked people around but nobody seems to give me a direct answer.

Your opinion please

. NO

Yes it can.

Love can't exist when there is no money. Confirm

lilmax: It cant,so a girl should suffer because of what? Love?....a guy must have money before love

ya post lyk a typical nigerian gee,whu fhink she z happy even wen her spouse abuse her physical, emotional en spiritually...wen duh spouse strt chasin oda geez,she run'z tew nairaland tew cry vhat her spouse z cheatin....POVERTY z a bastard...while DEPENDENT z a lil bitch...

Acidosis: 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.

Even god's love comes with a condition, which is; You must believe in him or perpetual punishment.

Can you guys comment without mentioning god na wa o This is b/w humans not god.. he is enjoying himself in heaven

Dorrobucci: Someone is poor when he/she cannot provide his/her basic needs.

Yes I agreed with u

onome710: 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.

So women only have prostitution to live?

Cecediva: Can true love exist in poverty?

I have asked people around but nobody seems to give me a direct answer.

Your opinion please

This your "true love" is it:
1. boy friend/girl friend love
2. Mother vs child love
3. Jesus Christ love (die for sinners)

Because of all these 3 loves, Jesus' own is the greatest and he didn't have money on this earth. No car, only slippers. No phone. Many were much richer than him.

virago:

Even happiness is not determined by money.

I totally agree with u there... Even Jay Z and Beyonce dey get issues with all the money.

Which one? God or god?

Poverty ko..

ferdimako:
Which one? God or god?

christain god..

True love can exist amidst poverty. But then again, it's one thing to love and it's another thing to breed a relationship. Poverty can destroy relationships even though deep down both parties still love each other. Love is unconditional but relationships depend on resources to sustain.

That's my opinion.

I'd rather fight poverty,defeat it and love afterwards.If I fail in my fight against it,then asking and looking for who to love and love back is like demanding too much.All should dread poverty

Am I the only one who find this funny? . Now @op have you ever been in a relationship with a poor guy? If you lie may u miss your menses for 6months
