That doesn't mean you are still not dependent.
Can you rent a self contain? Pay utility bills like light(Nepa), dstv etc without banking on a man? Can you get a car for yourself? Build your own house so that you won't sleep under the bridge at your old age or go back to family house?

If you can't, then you are a dependant because those are the things you will be hoping to pile on a man as a pressure.
Are you trying to say that a lady can't pay bills without the support of a man?
you are joking brother

No, didn't say so.
My point is that being able to do your hair or buy cream is far from being independent.

Bro, why do i think you are kind of pacifying her to marry a man with potential.
Women are not doing any man a favour by sticking with them. If they like make them marry or not, men won't die and life will move on.
Only if you know that most men are also enduring them.
Hardly will you see a nigerian relationship that is balanced.
It is all about what they can gain from men.
Most of the relationship have ever been were a waste of time and resources. I don't fancy it anymore.
How will you date a woman for 3,6 months or a year without nothing to show for it.
You look back, no boxers, no wrist watch, no singlet or wears, sneakers etc NOTHING!!!! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!! and you think i will be proud of such person? Someone i can remember with anything, no hosting me on outing or pool or cinema etc

It is very very very boring.
Love should be give and take.
If you are too broke to buy things for your bf in a relationship, then am sorry you have a misplaced priority.
What you need as a woman then is a job and not a relationship.

Hmmn.. I get your drift but on a second look, we men need women same way they need us.
The smart ones try to get things or surprise their husbands or boyfriends once in a while to give a sense of balance in the relationship.

I've seen girls that have understanding, they won't push you beyond your limits and some have their own money but just need genuine affection from a man.

My mother advice me never to look for a rich man who is well do whenever i'm set to get married.
she said i should marry a man that we will both start our life from the foundation, according to my mum, she said it is better to suffer with man to acquire wealth, than to go for a ready made soup.

Looking at the way things are going now, do you think a woman will now stoop so low and marry a poor man that is trying to make ends meet? Although, money is not love, but why would a parent wish her daughter to marry a poor man, i am begining to see my mum as a bad mother who does'nt wish me well.
Is it advisable i follow my mothers advice? I should stay in SURULERE instead of OLORUNSOGO.



By the time your mother get to old age and u are unable to take good care of her, and she ask u, why are u not sending me money, tell her that the poor man she ask u to marry have not even being able to take care of you not to talk of you having money to send her cheesy




Your mother says that if u want to have peace of mind u should marry a struggling man, that means she is indirectly saying that All poor men gives women peace of mind, while All rich men treat women like trash? That is a wrong generalization



So, never see poor man when dey beat woman abi? There is one poor man close to my house na almost everyday he dey beat his wife, so saying all struggling men give their wife peace of mind is not true



Seeing a rich man to marry is hard, but If u see a rich man that respect you for who you are, marry him


rich guys are few, the probability of u marry a rich guy is very slim, but if u did not see a rich guy u can still marry a man that is comfortable, even if he is not rich atleast he can take good care of a family and support him to grow




Before I go, let me let you know this



The reason your mother marry your father is not because of love, but because she have no other options, if your mother was able to see a rich man to marry when she was dating your father, trust me she for dump your father for the rich man lipsrsealed

So you feel you are stooping low to marry a struggling man but you don't think a rich man is stooping low to marry you, yes?

A broke woman marrying a very wealthy man = "She's securing the bag. Yassss Queen!"
A comfortable woman marrying a struggling guy = "She's stooping soooo low. Ewww!"

The standards are double these days.

What kind of bad advice will a mother give to her child? R u sure she is your biological mother?
No mother will love to be alive n see her daughter(s) suffer to feed in marriage with a poor broke frustrated guy all in the name of tomorrow will be better.
My sister if you see a rich wealthy man, who is ready to marry you, my dear follow him sharp Sharp..
Forget all this old story you mom is telling you, the world is turning, and marriage is sweeter when there is Money, I mean Real Money.
My sister, come close let me pray for you,.
Put your right hand on your head and repeat after me...
Say!! oh God my father,

You're an adult.

You should be able to make your own decisions.

Whether right or wrong, it's your decisions and you should own it.

Marry whoever you like enough to live with and overlook their flaws

I hope you will be praying with her too when she starts losing peace of mind in the marriage despite all her husband's wealth? Or you will be there for her when her husband barely gives her attention and she becomes lonely?

Or even better still, resort to domestic violence and she won't be able to leave because "money"?

Or your almighty prayers did not reach that side? cry

Good of you.. That's enough reason for you not to look down at anybody in life. Talkless of thinking maybe you are better than them.

Especially when you are not yet made. Work more on yourself, stop depending on a guy to feed you for the rest of your life.

You dey contradict yourself.

What's most important is being with a guy who loves you and respect you

If he is rich, that's fine

If he's up and coming (as long as he has something doing and not lazy) that's fine also
