Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by MBG4Real(m): 6:53pm On Feb 12, 2011
My friend is getting frustrated day after day. He is a graduate of Sociology. He has been trying to get a good job before getting married. He keeps getting jobs that pay very little and he has no money to start a good business. His current job pays only =N=17,000 per month.

My friend is getting old and he knows it. He will turn 33 by July. His current girl friend refused to marry him when he proposed to her last month.

What would the poor boy do?

I wouldn't marry him either.

But I would wait for him when he's financially ready, then we can get marry.

The process itself is a lot of expensive not to talk of our day to day living. tongue

But unlike the girl, I wouldn't turn him down, I would encourage him to get serious, and keep looking for work.

But age is not on his side. He told me he is 33 but I know he is up to 35.  What happens if he turns 40 and the  good job refuses to come.

I have told him to be praying also. @190  put him in your own prayers too.

@Mr, Cork, this is not a joke. A brother is in a precarious situation here.
He can't teach Karate cause he didn't learn that.

Atreides:

So what would you do?

For him to have proposed to me,we must have come a long way together,and i wouldnt turn him down because of his salary (provided he is very hardworking ,optimistic and all other qualities i want are still in place).Moreover  he is a graduate,so all hope is not lost,
 2ndly,i'm not giving him false hope,i wont go anywher,i just wouldnt want to be in a marriage where one of the basics is lacking 'financial security'

ur kinda contradicting urself.anyways wat happens when age is not on ur side?
Re: Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by Nobody: 8:47pm On Feb 12, 2011
In a situation like this,it depends on what you want and the guy in question,i mean the other qualities he has.I can still be in a relationship with him hopin and encouraging him that things will get better but i wont venture into marriage without financial security,@least to an extent,certain things have to be in place before marriage sets in, and to your question,even if age is not on my side,i wouldnt just leave him and then go for go for an already made man who i dont knw much about
Re: Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by degubi(m): 8:58pm On Feb 12, 2011
When my brother got married he was earning N15,000 but his wife was supportive even though she was not working as well, today they are doing well and my brother has a good job that pays well. Yoiur friend is a graduate with a lot of prospect, he needs to continue to believe as well as look for those opportunities that will bring the break he longs for. I do not blame the lady its not easy seeing beyond the present but if she is supportive in every way so much can really happen for him.

Nigeria is such a ridiculous country.

Re: Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by MrsChima(f): 9:03pm On Feb 12, 2011
No. I wouldn't have marry Mr. Chima without a job. I don't care what kind of job a man has to do to support his family. I don't need a rich man but I sure the hell don't need a poor man.
Re: Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by Dsense(m): 10:51pm On Feb 12, 2011

Tel him to work harder and to try another girl . . . . .Tha girl is never his girl.

Re: Would You Marry Him - Even Without A Good Job by Natudu: 10:58pm On Feb 12, 2011

If you can't say yes, what is the need of hanging around. You want to be a "fair weather friend". Since you believe that things can get better for him, why don't you provide the support until things gets better. You are a fake.
