I dont hate them.
It's just not fair that some of us are studying bleeping hard for that grade, and they're passing their classes by cheating and some of their sorority/frat bros are TA. So they easy answer/ grade.
Whaat? they carried their cheating to college too? But TA's have to be smart, well, know their stuff. Here, they are only available for big classes. How they make sure they get their TA frat bros is what I don't get. Thieves! angry lol

Uneducated to me = no higher education aka college education. Well, semi-educated.

The dudes calling ladies who responded earlier gold diggers. . .need to have their heads checked! Like Ohsisi asked would any of you wish a jobless man on your daughters? I bet No! but your wishing it upon other people's daughters. . .


Yes there's a difference between a lazy jobless man and one who's jobless but has got prospects! (he's educated,intelligent and has got the zeal)!

Its almost like saying a jobless man who isn't educated, who's got no prospects at all, makes no effort to look for a job, and is always looking for someone/something to blame for his situation rather than rising above it. . .then someone would expect me to marry this sort of man just to prove that I'm no gold digger? Well Thanks and NO thanks. . .but I'll pass!

A jobless man brings a whole lot of issues in marriage and am not ready to deal with that. . .a good example for  me is my maternal cousin who's a doctor in the US.

She meets this young man who's  uneducated but manages to make his way to the US. he was jobless and one of those immigrants that meddles in this and that to survive. . .

she falls in love. . .he proposes and she decides to marry him against the wishes of her family. . . .after marriage things were smooth for the first few months till he starts to notice oh she's got a good job. . .

it was so bad that even her pay check he would cease it. . .he keeps tabs on every single spending she does. . .he even stopped doing what ever he was meddling in to make some cash and was fully living off his wife. . .and what made it worse was he was even the one spending her paycheck lavishly. . .

what finally broke the camel's back was when she was pregnant and he beat her. . .her dad returned her bride price back to his people and the marriage was dissolved. . .a restraining order was placed on him when he started stalking!

So now some dude would tell me to marry this sort of man just to prove that love is blinded to a lot of things?  grin My dad first wouldn't even allow me make such mistake if I'm too blinded by love!



But its a different case if he lost his job while we were already married and is making efforts to look for a new one . .but if we aren't married and he's jobless? Heck NO! Get a job first no matter how small the pay check is and we can talk marriage!

I do not need a lazy bum for a husband cus I do not intend to be one woman who sits at home waiting for her husband's pay check! So why should I want a lazy man who sits on his backside doing nothing but waiting for my paycheck? Heck NO!
Gbam!!!

It's worse especially with the egotistical ones, like the one you described. They'd be hating on their wife's success too.
Small thing they'll start using her as a punching bag. NO!!

Get a job and maybe there won't be a need to have a crushed ego.

H2O2:
the sexism seems to play in you guys' favor.  you still expect men to foot the responsibility of financing wedding and marriages.
That's another individual thing. Obviously, not all marriages in Naija are financed by the men.

But wait oo, if you're the one who proposed, aren't you supposed to finance it?  grin That's what I think sha. She was on her own jejely but if she did the proposing, that's another story.
RomanceRe: See How Nigerian Women Prevent Mens Success by chiogo(f): 11:50pm On Feb 28, 2010
With all the sexism in Naija especially, you're telling me that women get jobs more than men? I laugh in Ijebu. grin

T.I was right sha - being broke is not an option!!

Continue blaming women for your INDIVIDUAL FAILURE!! embarassed

Ok, when I say potential I mean there is a possibility of him getting a good job, as he is intelligent, has a good degree etc, basically that he is hardworking as compared to a unintelligent man who is lazy, little education and so forth, without an ounce of 'potential', catch my drift shnookums? cheesy
I get your point, munchkins. grin
RomanceRe: For Love Will You Marry A Jobless Man? by chiogo(f): 10:47pm On Feb 28, 2010
H2O2:
why? because it's been written that your man's finna keep his job because he works hard?
LOL no.  I get what Ibk said about him having a job and then losing it. But even in that scenario, he's still not ready for marriage.

I say 'hard work' for people with no qualifications whatsoever who consider potential as "thinking positively".  huh Umm, no, that wouldn't get you a job. If you worked hard by getting some degree whether it's difficult or not to get a job, you know you have a degree and with hard work once again by applying for jobs that match your qualifications, you'll get another. Not with potential.

ibkaye:
Gah, hard work is part of potential, in my books anyway, I listed hardworking as part of my criteria didn't I? cheesy

Good things come to those who wait cheesy
Ok, people define it differently like I mentioned above. Like "Oh, he's not very smart but he has potential"  grin
And I remember this saying about potential, I forgot how it goes though. But something about potential meaning you're not good but not bad either, just manageable. I don't want that.  tongue
RomanceRe: For Love Will You Marry A Jobless Man? by chiogo(f): 10:33pm On Feb 28, 2010
LOL.

Err, everyone has potential. . . depends on what it's for though. undecided grin
I don't want potential, I want hard work.

ibkaye:
We'll both plan out our lives as it would be really silly if we didn't, the fact that he didn't have a job when we got married does not neccesarily mean he will not find one in the future, just that we will need to work hard for it, very hard. I for one want children, he will also want children because I will not marry anyone who does not want children, I wouldn't think it wise of us to have children until we find decent jobs to support both ourselves and them with.
Personally, I feel that marriage is a step you take when you're ready to 'settle down'. A jobless man isn't ready to settle down. I already have too many years to be in school so when I'm done and get married, I expect to have children not long after the marriage. So, if he's jobless and I have to leave work for maternity leave, how is that gonna work? Even with marriage, things happen - babies come when they're least expected. So, if you're gonna take that marriage step, I think one should be fully prepared.

ibkaye:
Like I said, there is always the future ahead, I also said that he will need to have certain qualities, being hardworking and have potential, I don't want a lazy man. Jobs are not always easy to find let alone get, it takes time and that's something I'm sincerely willing to wait for considering these noticed qualities. I'd also like an intelligent man, a good degree does not neccesarily guarantee a job immideiately and like I said, sometimes, these things take time, something we'd need to work together towards.
Potential, huh? Good luck with that. I don't know why he wouldn't be able to get a job with a GOOD degree. The keyword being 'Good'. In Nigeria, of course that would make sense but not in America. Maybe the pay wouldn't be that good but a good degree would definitely get one a job.
