at least you are enjoying free sex
free sex is an understatement my brother. Free sex is at the expenses of something. It’s not really a free sex afterall.

1. The most probable reason your family can't afford this and that has mostly to do with decisions you made in marriage. So, it isn't marriage that is the issue but you and your wife. Stop blaming marriage for your choices abeg! undecided
You and I know it’s rare to see a woman who’s going to stand by you in times of tribulation. I have been doing very well before I met her. All I’m just saying is that there is nothing special about marriage, if you are not financially stable don’t get married. When life start to happen you’d know why money is important!

Yes my brother. That is all that matters right now. To make money and be more successful. Even if you decides to divorce your wife, it won’t hurt that much. I just want my peace of mind.

1. Now you want to put the blame your wife for your own mistakes? undecided

2. You were financially stable as a single person responsible only for yourself does not mean you are capable of taking responsibility for more people. Why una no dey like reason these things properly for Pete's sake. If your wife does not equally bring in income that compares to yours in the marriage, you are both going to be in difficult straits. This is commonsense! undecided

Stop blaming marriage for your ridiculous decisions as individuals in marriage. undecided

God bless you . This shows that you’re a responsible man
Not all men are lucky to have women that ‘support’ financially, even if she does, you should not rely on that 100% .
Hmm. . But ehn 100k in two months as a married man is very fair o.


It’s far more easier to save as a single man.

How? When you’re single, you only spend what you want , you can ignore billings you’re not comfortable with , no one can compel u except you’re generous or a simp. infact you can decide to be extremely thrifty , and it’s more easier to adjust and adapt to any situation. You can decide to suspend morning and afternoon food, you can decide not to sub to cable, you can decide to even sleep if you have little change in your account. It’s easier to take risk and you’re open to different opportunities.

But when you’re married, it’s impossible to do all that. No matter how wicked you are , you can’t watch your own wife and kids go hungry , 90% of time , you’ll have to consider your family before taking any decisions.
Except you’re financial buoyant , you can’t just buy any cloths, shoes, for yourself. You can’t go to expensive restaurant without thinking about what to give your family the next day .


If you have money in your acct, you’ll still be scared , 70% of time you’ll be experiencing heart palpitations, you’ll not want them to lack.

Technically as a man, when you marry, you’ve given up your freedom and comfort for others.









That’s why , a man needs to be smart and ‘prayerful’ while choosing life partner , not all women worth these sacrifices.

Seanwilliam spitting facts.

Men's commitment is quite expensive and they should be careful whom they give it to.

There are reasons I'm not so keen on it yet.

You just highlighted it all.

Even it goes beyond wife and kids especially in the Nigerian context: the inlaws are there too.

I've always opined that men who decide to get married are brave.

1. Outside of hypogamy, marriage is not what you describe. It is instead a partnership that both individuals--- husband and wife --- are equally able to benefit from hence the saying "two heads are better than one". undecided

Yes, definitely. I'm definitely not comparing him or his spending pattern with anyone... But really, 100k in 2 months is 50k in one month.

50k will never be too much for a married anywhere in the current day Nigeria. Okada men spend more. The key word there is "current day Nigeria." By the time you buy cooking gas, pay bills (electricity, waste, security, and data), you're already going over 30k in one month so I'm wondering how he feeds his family.

He should be thankful that his wife is not that demanding. Me I'm not married but I spend close to 100k on my parents in same two months excluding rent, only food and other bills. What is 100k in two months?
I don't have heaven and Earth. I work extremely hard to earn a living, and I'm 29 years. For me if my future wife would manage 100k in two month then I wouldn't see it as a huge burden, except adding it to my parents need.

Because of my parents I'm not married. I'm looking for ways to settle my mother who is still fit. I'm looking for business she can do.

Not everyone is in the same sort of marriage that I have chosen because they have plenty of money and that’s what I’m saying. Responsibilities to them is nothing because the money is available. And that’s exactly my point, financial stability is the bedrock of a healthy marriage. Take money out and see the marriage crumbles!

1. Who are the "they" that have plenty of money?. undecided

2. You are still lying to yourself! You don't want to accept that the reason your marriage is the way it seems to you has primarily to do with the fact that you chose to strangle yourself with the rope called hypogamy, simple. undecided

Lol.

I've spent more than 8 million in 19 months of marriage.

When I was a bachelor, i didn't spend up to 1million in a year.

1. If properly implemented, "Two heads are better than one." That is what is special about marriage. It is an agreement, a business partnership of sorts that if well worked on, goes on to benefit both partners in the agreement.undecided

2. You are mistaken here assuming I am in some way attempting to justify marriage. Instead, what I am doing is pointing out the fact that marriage has nothing to do with your problem and current situation. undecided
