Biko let her know your salary so that she can know if the future is bright for her or not.

Is not as if you’re earning millions of naira monthly . I’m absolutely sure you’re not even earning common 100k monthly. Biko don’t come and put someone’s daughter in abject poverty!!

My nobody wants to settle for less my dear!!

I’ve been dating this girl since early last year when I was still serving and she’s really into me.

Is this a good idea?

babaYIBO:
I’ve been dating this girl since early last year when I was still serving and she’s really into me. She doesn’t bill me unless I purposely send her something. And we occasionally hangout a lot too.

By mid last year, I brought her home to meet my mum and some of my siblings. My mum likes her so much and she would spend time with me in our house.

I finished my service around September last year, and I started hunting for job. I was taking online classes etc..

So I got a job earlier this year, and the pay isn’t bad. Only my mum knows how much I’m earning and few friends. My girl doesn’t know.

Now, I’m likely to be getting a pay rise this month.

I’m also planning to get married to this girl next year, hopefully, she’s been a good girl even when I was jobless.

I don’t know if it’s okay to let her know my salary range. Although I’d not be telling her specifically the amount.

Is this a good idea?

From your narrative, you have not really worked for long. Build urself, build a career, study the young lady. Don't rush

Seems you love the Mercedes Benz GLE63s

Divide your salary into 3 and tell her that.
The average Nigerian woman is a thief waiting to reap where she did not sow.



This is an example of a Nigerian Woman thief.

A LOT!

Jennyclay:
you are the one who is irritating .

Most you cannot allow your sisters and daughters to marry a man who earns little but always quick to advice other ladies to marry a man who earns little.

Bunch of hypocrites!!! Shior!!!

ibechris:
Marriage shouldn't be the first man,first of all save and invest some money.

U started work this year and u have started talking about marriage.

I wish u the best but remember,marriage and family have its own financial implications and can make one depressed if u don't plan well.

Better gather yourself well and don't marry a woman who has nothing doing.

All the best.

Intentionally keeping your salary a secret from your fiancé/spouse is something I've only come across in Nigerian spaces and maybe it's just a cultural thing I will never understand and that's fine, but I find it weird.

The West have more of a credit culture where couples are more likely to be involved in binding financial agreements with legal implications so they're more compelled to be privy to each other's finances. E.g. when getting a loan for a mortgage the lender will calculate how much they're willing to give you based on the household income etc. so of course I need to know what you earn just from a practical point of view. Whereas, in Nigeria things tend to be paid in full?

I guess I understand why it may not be as common in Nigeria but I find it weird when it's intentionally hidden, even if only one person is paying the mortgage lol. If they just didn't ever ask or it just never came up in conversation that's fair, but it's the intentional awkwardness/secrecy that's strange to me

There's nothing bad in telling her your actual income if there's need for that.
My gal knew what am earning,
I have been married for over 8 years

PeterObi4LP:
My fiance then now my wife is always the first person to know my salary. I have change jobs thrice and she is the first to know my salary till today. It is called trust and she don't demand at all. For that reason, I gave her the ATM to use anytime she needs money.

Not all ladies are like her.
