I wish we can also hear from him. You may not be the innocent you your writeup portrayed. Most likely, he left because of what he knows you to be. With the tendencies he knows you have, it is better to quit early.

Dont mind him he's got complex issues. Let him deal with it and get over himself.

Don't ever lose yourself worth or any great opportunity coming your way because of a man. Men are not loyal and if you dance to his tune now just because of marriage, he'll want to dominate you in that marriage and prevent you from becoming successful so you won't measure up to
him in life. That way, he can keep you as his puppet to be at his mercy forever; under his control.

He may even end up not marrying you and by then you'll have lost a one time opportunity.

Your career is your life after God. Hold on to it, let him get lost! Men are not worth sacrificing anything for. You'll only end up in regrets.

Any man with such mentality is a disaster waiting to happen and is not worth having around.

If you are telling us the Truth o.. you have dodged a killer bullet

I have been working for this company for two years. In December 2021, there was a change in management, a new manager was assigned to my Department. Before the change in management, I applied for some jobs in November 2021 but I didn't get any response.

Things between my new manager and I developed really quickly (he is not married and he is 10 years older than me). Although we have been working together, when he became the new manager we started dating. it was mutual, it wasn't like he forced me. We liked each other and we started dating in March 2022. We kept things professional in the office. Nobody in the office knows about this even till now.

Those companies I applied to in November 2021 reached out to me for an interview. I got two offers at the same time. Both offers come with great pay (similar to what my boyfriend currently earns) and a significant boost to my career. I spoke to my boyfriend about it and being my boss he told me to reject both offers, he told me he would be able to cater for my needs that the only commitment he has now is paying for his house and once he is done paying for it, he would have more money to take care of me and I didn't need a job where they would pay me what he's currently earning and be in a role similar to his.

I told him it's not the money but it would be about moving up the ladder in my career. These are offers people do not have, now I have two, he is asking me to reject them. He told me even if I have to move the only offer I should take is the one close to the company where we work which has a lower pay compared to the second offer. I told him I would go with the second offer which has more opportunities for me. Both offers are in the same state although my preferred offer is a bit far from where I live but it is still a reasonable location to commute everyday. At one point he told me, I was too ambitious and I took it as a compliment.

I noticed he changed since then, he informed the company management that I was leaving and we began the handover process, I noticed he changed after we had the discussion about me accepting the second offer but I thought it was about him missing me. May 31 was my last day and I noticed few days to my last day he was acting strange so I asked him what the matter was. He said he doesn't feel anything for me and we should stop seeing each other.

This is a man that was really excited when we were dating, all of a sudden doesn't feel anything for me because I got a high paying job? Is it wrong for a woman to be ambitious? When has it become a crime for a woman to aim high in her career? My role will still be to support him. I have never been rude to him and I am not going to be rude to him because we now earn the same salary. I really like him and I feel disappointed that he could act this way.

Is it now a crime for a woman to be ambitious?

That Man is a Simp. Go look for a better man. I love powerful couples.

Which one be I will use my money to cater for you and the children?

What is wrong with having more money, with your wife buying things for you and the kids, while you also do the same?

Well, some things are all about perspective.

He is saving himself from future drama. It's obvious you live abroad. Haven't you read of those men that were pushed to kill their women because of situations like this? It doesn't work for most Africans. The woman is likely to become Americanized. The last one even shot his wife, the grandma and finally killed himself

He is acting from lessons he learnt. So let him be. Anyway, I'm available.

He is not being reasonable. You got a job with an almost similar pay meaning both of you can pull twice his salary together as a family. But him with his ego believes that you don't need a job -- taking care of you or whatever that means.

It's not a crime to be a woman, you are just dating the wrong guy. Runaway from him, even if he changes his mind later things will get worse in the future when you get promoted --by then you would be pressured to do things (resigning) to save your marriage.

Some will say it's because some women don't really know how to handle success and before you know it,she's feeling herself and because she earns more and all that they believe you can't be easily controlled.


This is 2022 and not 1980 or so, women deserve the best too,if as a man you're not comfortable with the success of your wife/gf then you have a very big inferiority complex problem.

If you feel your wife doesn't respect you anymore because she's earning more and all that, abeg it is not a do or die affairs,I so much believe in divorce.
Divorce is not a crime,don't be fooled by those preachers.

You either end the relationship or divorce.

OP, I don't know how much you both love each other but love is never enough, you will meet someone else that understand and respect the fact that as a lady, you deserve good things too.

There's a Proverb that says "Okra doesn't sprout for a good soup maker"

We who have been fasting and praying for years to find a resourceful and respectful decent virtuous lady to marry haven't seen any. And look at this one getting concerned about an insecure selfish and apparently ungodly man.

This life truly isn't balanced.

The only problem I have. With him is that he still dumped u after u are leaving his workplace... He should be. Happy u are leaving his workplace so u guyz can date. Freely...

But on the side of u earning so much compared to him... He may not be entirely wrong to end the. Relationship... Because if he doesn't you will..

Ladies value men by 100% their moneey... U will b lieing if u say u don't as a lady.. once u start to earn that much.. someone earning far far bigger than him sill start to hungry u.. den u will dump him


So to save himself from all the future trouble u Weill give him.. he needs to terminate the relationship.

He did the. Right thing sis!

might be because he don't want you to leave the company he his currently managing. so seeing you daily he is rest assured you are with him always and no need to panic. That's also why he want you to choose the company closer to the company he works.

Trust me assuming the company closer to where he works is the one offering you the highest salary, he would still ask you to go for it. So it's not all about you getting same role as his. It's just him having security issues. Bcus we all know women nowadays are something else.

If you really love and want him, just talk to him and make him understand how you feel about him and assured him no matter the distance or any circumstances you will never leave him or cheat on him.

I have been working for this company for two years. In December 2021, there was a change in management, a new manager was assigned to my Department. Before the change in management, I applied for some jobs in November 2021 but I didn't get any response.

Things between my new manager and I developed really quickly (he is not married and he is 10 years older than me). Although we have been working together, when he became the new manager we started dating. it was mutual, it wasn't like he forced me. We liked each other and we started dating in March 2022. We kept things professional in the office. Nobody in the office knows about this even till now.

Those companies I applied to in November 2021 reached out to me for an interview. I got two offers at the same time. Both offers come with great pay (similar to what my boyfriend currently earns) and a significant boost to my career. I spoke to my boyfriend about it and being my boss he told me to reject both offers, he told me he would be able to cater for my needs that the only commitment he has now is paying for his house and once he is done paying for it, he would have more money to take care of me and I didn't need a job where they would pay me what he's currently earning and be in a role similar to his.

I told him it's not the money but it would be about moving up the ladder in my career. These are offers people do not have, now I have two, he is asking me to reject them. He told me even if I have to move the only offer I should take is the one close to the company where we work which has a lower pay compared to the second offer. I told him I would go with the second offer which has more opportunities for me. Both offers are in the same state although my preferred offer is a bit far from where I live but it is still a reasonable location to commute everyday. At one point he told me, I was too ambitious and I took it as a compliment.

I noticed he changed since then, he informed the company management that I was leaving and we began the handover process, I noticed he changed after we had the discussion about me accepting the second offer but I thought it was about him missing me. May 31 was my last day and I noticed few days to my last day he was acting strange so I asked him what the matter was. He said he doesn't feel anything for me and we should stop seeing each other.

This is a man that was really excited when we were dating, all of a sudden doesn't feel anything for me because I got a high paying job? Is it wrong for a woman to be ambitious? When has it become a crime for a woman to aim high in her career? My role will still be to support him. I have never been rude to him and I am not going to be rude to him because we now earn the same salary. I really like him and I feel disappointed that he could act this way.

Is it now a crizme for a woman to be ambitious?
. He has inferiority complex. He is feeling insecure.
Leave him to his opinions. Move on with your life and career.
You did the right thing.

I would say it's a value miscommunication. But good thing you have an opportunity to trash the difference before marriage.

Some people would rather have a woman under them, and there is nothing bad with this, they just have to look for women who also like being under men.
