The idea of marrying a woman who earns more can also evoke feelings of insecurity and emasculation. In a society where male dominance and power are highly valued, being financially inferior to one's wife may challenge traditional notions of masculinity. Moreover, the fear of being judged or ridiculed by peers and relatives for not fulfilling the provider role can create significant psychological barriers to accepting a relationship where the woman is the main breadwinner. Thus, despite changing societal dynamics and increasing female empowerment, many Nigerian men continue to struggle with the notion of marrying a woman who surpasses them financially.

why would i marry someone who earns more than me as a guy

I know some people would say any guy that shies away from this kinda relationship is not matured enough or prolly suffer from inferiority complex, but i must tell u, its not that easy. Just that you will be forced to upgrade yourself at all times but dem self no dey rest...we gather run tire

Being in such relationship three times in my life and even though the ladies didnt really see it as a big deal when i was with them, I still kinda feel insecure any single time we talk about investment, business and any financial decision as whole


The good news tho is that, I will keep gravitating toward such women(boss ladies dem) and since me sef no dey stagnant, I will finally learn to cope in such relationship

Money has never being an issue in any of my relationship as dem no dey beg and me sef dey do the right thing most of the times and yea, I ensure they invest as much as I do too...Why u go dey work for stanbic dey collect over half a mili salary and u no go fit buy random huge gift for your guy. We dont do that here

Na wetin some people miss their destiny helper be this... Overtaking is allowed if you are a business oriented person...

I don't see any issue here if there is outmost understanding between each other in the relationship

I can never marry a poor girl, liability, my wife must be atleast something

If you think you can marry Nigerian babe that earns more than you and you think the home will be peaceful and loving, you are in for a surprise.

When she is done getting whatever she needs from you, you will see her true colour.

Of course there are exceptions but how sure are you that you will meet one? Don’t gamble.

Choose your level and manage her.

na wa oo

I don't care whether or not a woman earns more than I do, the big question is, can she submit to a man she earns more than? ...

If the answer is no, regardless of financial prowess, she becomes unfit to be my wife ...

Watch as the gender equality folks come for your head. How dare you use the word submit for a woman to a man

I was rejected by a woman only because I am an employee and she has a private business. Specifically, she has her own bakery. I myself have completely pure intentions towards her. I really don't need her money. I'm not poor. I have everything I need. I'm not going to write specifics and details. I'll just say. Nothing. That's all.
