And make sure u end some miserable life if u don't later get that promotion....

Though she's my fellow gender, I'm sorry to say... She has a watery brain

She's your girlfriend and not wife...
Wait ooo, you're taking care of her even in her family home... What happened to her parents?

I know it's cool to help but it seems you're taking the whole responsibility

Now she has manipulated ur parents to team up with her to block u from what feeds them...

Do they have standby job for u?
What happens if you can't cope in giving them as usual?

She will start calling u weakling and not been man enough to use your head.

Hey dude, ignore there complaints and FOCUS
Be on ur best behavior at work to ensure the promotion becomes successful.

If the job takes more of ur personal and family time, the little time u have; maximize it with ur loved ones

, if the witch u call your girlfriend has concluded your matter with the village people by advicing you to quit your good paying job in this harsh economy is going to be your decision, well I pray you won't be remote controlled in your entire life when she becomes your wife.

My advice
1. as she has decided to commit suicide
You had better tell her to make it quick, so you can be free.


2. Please man up and stop reasoning like a simp
Do even need advice concerning this situation, knowing that your progress is around the corner

lol. he wants us to use his head for him. I work in a bank for over a decade now and I don't need anyone to tell me the disadvantages of working in a bank because I know it. but it puts food on the table and I get better over time. I am not resigning yet until I am financially stable. to get here takes time. so no pressure or stress would make me call it quit for the now.

Good day great people of nairaland. I'll make this as short as possible and forgive my typo errors.
I've been working in this construction firm for the past five years together with taking care of my family and my girlfriend who has been in school but due to ASUU strike, now at home.
I'm usually busy and spend less time at home except on weekends - Sundays.
Recently, my girlfriend has been talking me into changing the nature of my work to another job that will afford me the opportunity to give more time to my family and her. I insisted that I'll need more time to be able to find another job but she will not have it that way.
Seems to spoke to my mother about it and it's now hell in the home with my mother threatening she will kill herself if I don't quit the job. This job is something I have used in completing my house and paying the fees of my girlfriend.
Lest I forget, I got the hint that my manager is considering me for a promotion and my quitting the job might just spell doom on me!

I'll appreciate all your suggestions, advice and criticism. I'm really in a fix!

Please quit. Na your body go hear am

Bro remember she's only your girlfriend not your wife. Girl friend philosophy and that of wife aren't the same. She might eventually dump you if things go bad, which on the contrary will be difficult for your wife to do.
She's a liability to you now not an asset. Use your head!!!

Do not quit, I repeat; DO NOT QUIT until you get a better job.
Do not let ANYONE talk you into quitting a job that is providing for you.

Make that decision by yourself alone and not because someone wants you to. The abuse you will get after will make you want to commit suicide.

Guy, pls I beg you in the name of God, listen your mother and you can do away with your girlfriend because if you're jobless today she will drag you into mud and abandoned you like pack of card. Just ensure you spend all your Sundays inside without move an inche because you need rest as well.

The op just dey pull strings.
Your mum: if she threaten you with her death, know for sure say na you go bury her on a normal day. advise her that she no suppose dey see you if you're really successful.
Your girlfriend contribute what to your progress aside sex?
Sponsoring her education is a philanthropic act. You or your kids will have the gains cos she's not a reliable one.
Abeg take your job seriously.
A man's job/business is the only means that God can bless man. Another way is fraudulent acts.

I think your girlfriend is jobless and lazy that's the main issue here, there are students who have taken advantage of this ASUU strike by learning a skill or getting a job. How can she be pressuring you to quit your job because she wants you to spend more time with her, though it's important to create more time for her and your family which is important but the way she is going about it is totally wrong. We all know that getting a good job in Nigeria is not easy, so it's better you have a better alternative in the future and setting up a business is not a bad idea but bro don't go and quit because of one silly girl else you will regret your actions in no distant time.

I don't understand why ur lack of time is affecting you family. What will u be doing for them at home on Saturdays. Assuming you stay in another state, will they be seeing u even on Sundays?. Or maybe u work offshore.
That ur girlfriend is a confirm idiot. She is not even ur wife yet and she want to start controlling ur life. If u leave this ur job, u will suffer. Come to talk of it apart from civil servant and bankers who else Doesn't go to work on Saturdays.

Stick to your job as long as you derive joy and satisfaction doing it.
Call your girlfriend and talk again to her. If she doesn't listen to you now don't think she would when you marry her.
Remind her of all God helped you to do in her life and that of your family. If eventually she doesn't still see reason leave her to her choice. If you lose this job pẹrẹ, and you can't take care of her again someone else will have her. And she will not remember that she was the cause of your misfortune. She will leave you immediately.

As for your mum, call her too. Tell her if you leave your job you may not be able to take care of her again. If she insists, then tell her you have heard her. Tell her weeks later that you have started looking for job. Any day you have a free day lie that you have a job interview. Go out and have fun with friends and come back later with tales of a job interview.

Days later tell her they are offering you 1/3 (one third) of your salary where you presently work. Continue to dribble her till she forgets about the issue.

Never leave your job because of your girlfriend or your mom. You will regret it.
If your babe wants to leave let her leave because she will still leave when you are broke.
If your mum continues saying she will kill herself leave her she can not. It's not easy to commit suicide. And if she is old enough to die. Why worry.

which family are u talking about?. Is it his mother or his wife and children which he does not have yet.
He should even move out from his mother and stay somewhere else if not mother will even be interfering in marriage when the time comes.

The way she will treat you the moment lose this job and no longer foot your bills eeeh...It will be worst than suicidal.

Leave because you have a better option...Never leave because one lady said you should...Otherwise under your nose, Another man go pay her dowry if you can't meet up because you no longer have a job to fix your needs.

Be careful...Some are manipulative...Talk to your mom, let her see through you. Your struggles pay the bills.

Dear kings.
Just take a month leave from work,and when you get home tell your wife or mother that you have just been sacked from work.Then relax and watch the person you married or called mother.Watch the way you will be treated for this first two weeks.
