Boss13: However, I didn't mean she will ignore her family. Only a woman can create a boundary on how her family interfere in her marriage/ demand from her husband. Again, lets assume everyone thinks like the op, its only right his siblings marries to/from humble families too. And when such happens, will he ever be free from his siblings demanding from him? Naaa! So, the man's family can demand and his wife's family can't? It will only make sense if the man is from a well to do family too. This way, none can demand. Never as a man hope to attach yourself to another man's money, you maybe disappointed, disrespected or otherwise. Make your own money first and find a lady that will give you peace, respect, happiness, someone you can grow old with, and stop worrying about things you can never control. Finally, There's no arithmetic formular when it comes to marriage. Each marriage comes with its own challenges. Rather than worrying about money which can come/goes anytime, worry about marrying a lady that will create a peaceful home for ya. What is a rich man without peace of mind and sleepless nights? money can't buy those, you know. 5 Likes 1 Share |

That a family is well to do today is not an assurance it will be well to do tomorrow, is even better to marry an average girl who is working on becoming well to do than someone who is there already. 1 Like |

Boss13:Preach on bra! Nigerian women are smarter than Nigerian men when it comes to marriage! Nigerian ladies marry for financial security and future security while Nigerian men marry for physical beauty and useless submissiveness Royal families and political families and long rich families use marriage to seal more financial, political and business ties while poor, average and middle-class men use marriage to incur more financial debts and problems into their life, which most times lead to their eventual future downfall and children sufferings , it has to change It is time Nigerian guys start to marry right. Stop going after poor ladies who are financial burdens just because you assume she will be submissive more than the ladies doing well financially, its all fallacy created by we Nigerian guys and by Hollywood films 2 Likes 1 Share |

franchasng: They have to know. That’s why I support your opinion 100%. I never married from a poor background and it was not by chance or love. I swore never to do it because I have seen the finances of good men go under. I have also swore never to give birth like they give award for the number of children one has. When I was a bachelor, I dated - rich gals, poor gals - and there are not different. In fact the poor ones have too much problems and were so demanding financially. You can’t blame them. Imagine playing the role of a lover and a father at the same time. Why take up the role of a girl’s parents? It is this stupid ignorance thinking that has put many Nigerian men in financial bondage. Women are smarter than men when it comes to picking their spouse. Many men don’t ask what they intend to get from their marriage. If you do the maths - when two people come together and the family income does not change upward, that’s a fall in financial capability and that means there is a net decrease or demerit for that man after getting married. Add family wahala to that and kids - that man is destined to struggle. No be witch or village people Na who you marry. I wanted to use a real life experience to exemplify this line of thought but out of respect for the people concerned, I decided other wise. NEVER MARRY A POOR GIRL FOR YOUR OWN GOOD. DONT SAVE ANYONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF 5 Likes 3 Shares |

kollinzgee: Leave out Nigerian women - look inwards. Nigerian women are not stupid, they are very smart. Don’t you see the surge in single ladies dating married men. If what you propose becomes the norm, many won’t mind to become third wives. Your concern should be not marrying a poor girl and getting your money up. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Boss13: That's if rich men are stupid to marry more than one. My dad works for Nnpc, I live in one of their complexes for years, the only thing a girl will get from a married man now is to help madam to alleviate conji, not marriage. The ones who were foolish enough to take their spoorts serious either lost their lives, family or wealth. The younger ones have become wiser.

[quote author=franchasng post=73519767]hahahaha, I like your type that allow nature to take its place lol. I don't dispute the fact that I might end up marrying below my class finally, but it is my desire like the op to marry within my level, and if by nature's making I end up with a lady below my par, I will make sure I help her come up to my taste and if she refuses or keeps dulling, I will call it quits for real. I love focused and ambitious ladies who are friendly, and not rude; I have met such ladies in the past but then I wasn't just into ladies for no reason I can tell, so there are still successful ladies that are friendly, reasonable and well mannered, one just need to take his time and don't rush or be desperate in your search to find them. I am not the type of guy that want my lady to be cooking and cleaning for me, I hated this even when we were in school, I always abuse my guys that do that. I am not a foodie; I eat like bird, I pick, I am highly choosy with food and food don't make me go gaga so I don't need a wife to be my cook or cleaner or house girl. If we need one, we hire. I once had a house keeper that comes to take care of my house chores some time ago until I was advised that its bad because of the so many ills we hear in the world today before one uses his hand to hire his killer. So I am not those kind of guys looking for a submissive house maid as wife, I have a different notion about life and marriage entirely and if I don't find what I desire I may stay single for life its not a crime my parents have plenty enough grandchildren already. I just need a friendly lady, jovial, humble, smart, financially valuable, focused Your second paragraph sounds more like it. Don't worry you will get a lady you desire soon; if she is not there yet. When she comes, don't be blind to see. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

My wealthy uncle made the mistake of disregarding the financial situation of his wife before marriage, and that single handedly led to the breakdown of his marriage. From his wife unreasonable demands, to his in law, he even went to the extent of bearing the financial burden of her brothers in uni after their father passed away. He pride himself on being "the man" while his wife and sibling bleed him dry. Her sister moved into his place and he became responsible for her as well. Currently now his business has not been moving fine which made him unable to keep up with the expense. The people he even try to appease disregarded him since he is not meeting up, and that single handedly broke his marriage as his wife couldn't live up to her materialism anymore. Marry within your class gentlemen. To be perpetually broke is more of mentality and life choices than situational. Marriage should be also of an ally, the coming together of two to make a stronger one. 5 Likes |

GodisGood4321:I understand you considerably, and no! You are not a gold digger. But you see, marriage is beyond financial status. You're looking for a girl from a well to do family; but have you ever thought of how this family will treat and respect you?Have you wondered how much influence the family has on her: would it be a positive or a negative influence? Have you thought about their expectations of you as a son in-law of an affluent family? Have you ever wondered how much she spends or how extravagant she is? Come on! She's from a rich home, she has class , she would love to maintain her standard. I'm not saying there ain't girls that are from well to do homes who are responsible and have good families too, but these are things you should put into consideration too. Marriage is beyond all these, this shouldn't be paramount. Peace of mind, understanding and tolerance is! I'll give a little illustration using my family. We're 7 from my mum( 4 girls), we're not poor , we can take care of our basic needs. My elder sisters got married to rich/very comfortable men, but for once my family has never asked for their assistance no matter how pressing the needs are even when my dad was terribly sick, my parents just refused to ask for money. They'll always tell us -" what if they weren't rich ?what if your sisters are not married ?" They only give us at will; and frequently, people will always ask her if her in-laws are stingy, in a sly manner. When you get married, you'll understand better 4 Likes 1 Share |

Tecks10: The fact that you are trying to compare unions of old to the ones these present groups of desperados are into only proves that you don't understand millennia ladies. The problem usually starts when your wealth begins to wane, or when she sees wives of your colleagues driving brand new cars etc. That is when you will know that money is the most important criteria in marriage. So you think that because a girl is from a poor family, then the family have no influence over her? I am so sorry for you. The pressure from poor family is even much worse. Most educated rich men only want their daughters to be happy, nothing more. Afterall, what can you give to them that they can't provide for themselves. 1 Like |

Boss13: It's no one's fault to be poor. You guys should stop making this a priority. Have you met a poor girl who is very witty, ambitious and dexterous. There are so many of them out there, but they don't have the means. The ultimate thing is finding a good person, who is willing to build and has good managerial skills too. You might find it among the rich or poor, but just don't pitch your search on the rich alone. A witty poor girl can turn wealthy if given the means. A wise woman whether rich or poor should know when her husband's finances are going low as a result of her family's expenses and should be able to make her family understand that. Riches do not last forever, you may think someone is beyond ever being poor; but this is life and anything can happen at any time. You're not married yet, and that is why you have no idea.Being from a poor home Should be the least of considerations to make. Marriage encompasses more than it. I don't expect you to understand, but I'm sure, with time; you will. 5 Likes 1 Share |
