Nigeria itself needs money, let everyone look for money
Marriage is not meant for everyone
Am 37, am enjoying my life, I attempted suicide February due to family and friends pressure of getting married by fire by force

Any man who can not comfortably send 200k to his mum/dad/sibling(s)/relative(s) is not in my league. I don't need a man's money to date him, but I won't give a man my money to solve his family problems. For his personal needs when necessary, I can give him money. But for his family...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

For no.6 which happens to be more of the summary of your points,men should start seeing women for who they are at face value and nothing deeper than that, relationship for most of them is transactional,as long as you are paying the bill,I ll respect you.
Hello brothers,women are meant to be dined with with a very long spoon.
If you must dine with one, make it mutual.
Don't be caught catching feelings cos you ll be played.
Have as many as you want as long as you can afford them.
Many of the 25 and above of age littering the street these days who want to get married are not cos of same shallow entitlement mentality.
They are hoping a rich man will come sweep them off their feet some day till they get to the desperado age of no return.

The most annoying of all is the recent negative woke-ness of them believing they are at war against men.
Anything a man says or does ll be countered in a mannerism of I don't take bullshit from men.

Hello miss universe,the day men start realising women are not the soft hearted,angelic image they portray them to be and come to reality it's a war zone,trust me.you won't stand the heat.

It's funny how we think women still needs empowering in this all man for himself society.
More annoying that it's mostly sponsored by men of honour who has used their life earning themselves a fortune,as innocent as a boy child is,a woman ll hardly use her fortune to empower any of such movement.
The few half-baked philanthropist among them ll visit an orphanage and get things for only the girl's child all in the name of empowering women.

This nonsense must stop,men wake up.

Zigzagman:
this is arrogance. Your decision on who's in your league is grounded on his ability to dash out money.

Some people are so poor that all they have is money.

DiamondPant:
I'd say I've understood life beyond your understanding.
Don't worry, I'll tell my story some day.
I just hope you'll get to read it.
Cheers!!

DiamondPant:
If my decision to roll with a man who is financially responsible is the definition of arrogance, then thanks for the compliment.

Dimaya:
A financially responsible man will not be dashing people 200K up and down. The type of man you described in your earlier post is not a financially responsible man

If you are not ten steps ahead of your woman in all aspect, she will definitely try to control and take charge ✊

Had to leave this lady alone when I realize the hypergamy in her head was too much

Claims she’s ahead of me in life just because she’s a corper 😂😂

Hassanmaye:
Hahahaha

Marriage: Women decry a lack of financially eligible suitors


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hWypHOGur8

In Nigeria and across Africa today, women today are struggling to find men who earn as much as they do.

There is a shortage of economically attractive men and this has contributed to battles for control in relationships in which the women outearn their men. According to the young women in the trending video below, a good man is hard to find, especially in this economy.

Although we like to think marriage is based on love, they say, it “also is fundamentally an economic transaction,” and women want partners whom they can call their equals.

Two of the women on the panel confessed they'd fought with their partners, exchanging blows over money and control.

So, here are the questions for discussion within this thread:

1. Does a “lack of good jobs” for men contribute to loss of male control in a relationship?

2. Have you been in a romantic relationship in which a partner who had economic power over you, was tempted to control you or abuse you physically or verbally?

3. How do you go about handling it?

Please watch the video and share your opinion.
