The big question.A girl who stood by you while you had nothing could be more humble, respectful and enduring than the one who helped you to become somebody when you were nobody.The one who started and built from the scratch with you is safer to go with than the one who built a business empire for you because some women are in the habit of bragging about assistance rendered to men when chips are down.

Very Simple

As Micheal, I'll choose the one with the biggest booty

If both have big booties, then I go for the one with the biggest boobs

If none of them have these natural qualities, I send them packing, and continue my search

Don't blame me

My peace of mind comes first

Flow with the one who brought the wealth, not the one who was there busy doing nothing to improve the situationship. Some guys don't even know that some girls have jealous spirit husbands who would make sure that you don't even have money to maintain yourself, talk less of getting married to his (SH) precious pearl. Now, the girl might have good intentions towards you, but she's not even aware that a force is fighting your finances/jobs/businesses because of her..

*Long Story Short*
I know of a distant friend when I was in Benin who we never thought could amount to anything reasonable. Morning till night, him and his so called girlfriend. When he finally realized that something is amiss somewhere, he finally gave in to his mother's advice (the only woman you should never abandon is your mom, because whether right or wrong, up or down, she will always be there), they visited several places (but fear Benin people o, them nor dey make noise but they know what's up spiritually) for confirmations. He broke up with the said girl after he was finally convinced that she's not just a mermaid but a princess with her husband in the river. Few months later, na baba day reject job calls, settled for the most reasonable in terms of pay and working conditions. With better salary and all, he went into real estate (then, real estate was a rare business, unlike now). Some sufficient money and left the country around 2009 to Brazil, came back few years later with a sharp white woman for marriage. Went back and they have been living happily ever after (from my last update about him)..

Moral Lesson
Dear men, always learn from the experience of other people, so that you can have a pre-informed mindset towards anything risky and escape on time. Mistakes are costly as it comes with a lot of setbacks/delays and missed opportunities (opportunities you may never see again until you leave this earth)..

2ndly (we educated youths do this a lot), you might be more educated than your parents but sometimes listen to them (na education wisdom you get, not God given wisdom). Your mom prolly has good reasons to stand in your way in marrying that girl (some still go ahead and marry only to regret later or live miserably. Woman go dey enjoy and dey fat dey go while depression go wan finish the husband)...

When Zara was opening doors where was AMA. Essentially you are a user. May God provide both with their loyal partner.



Toks2008:
There was a time when Michael had nothing but dreams. No money, no status but just raw ambition and a heart full of fire. In that season of his life, there was Ama.

Ama wasn’t flashy. She didn’t have wealth or powerful networks. But she had something far rarer...faith.
Faith in Michael, even when he doubted himself. She stayed through the silent nights when failure felt loudest. She lent him her last when he couldn’t pay his rent, and even more often, she lent him her strength. She was home when life felt like war.

Years passed, and things changed, not overnight, but steadily. Michael got a chance meeting with Zara.

Zara was light years ahead. A woman of influence, class, and undeniable charm. She saw potential in Michael and had the keys to open doors he hadn’t even knocked on yet. With her connections and resources, his career soared. In just two years, Michael became the man he once only dreamed of becoming.

But with success came a dilemma: he could only choose one to walk with him through the rest of his life.

Ama still loves him but no pressure, no demands. She had only ever wanted his happiness and Zara also loves him.

One woman built him slowly, brick by brick. The other elevated him swiftly, like a jet taking flight.

So the question is...If you are in Michael's situation, who will you go for? Ama who stood by you when you had nothing or Zara who made you wealthy?

Making u wealthy is not a prerequisite for a good person or wife if they use it to hold u hostage.

Also standing by u has many definitions and contexts. Stand by u how?

This is my story...my only way of helping the first is to ensure she relocates to Canada..do masters and get her a house..

I'll pick Option C and marry both of them.
Even you as the man you won't be happy if you marry one and leave one. You'll always feel like you left something out there and one day you may end up cheating on the one you're married to with the other. So na to pack them altogether

Both of them added value to me it doesn't matter the amount of the value so I will look at who has more wifey qualities and less baggage. I won't marry anyone just for making me rich or standing by me in poverty alone. I will go deeper to who they are and what they stand for as individuals... How they also fit into my future perhaps. undecided

I can honestly choose any of them. It depends on the deeper qualities of these ladies. I don't owe any of the marriage by force.

However the one who made me wealth if she has all the right attributes stands a better chance.

Assuming both girls have sane good character and no red flags.

Best answer here ….

You might not be the first person that Zara helped
and you will definitely not be the last

Ama will still be loyal to you even if you didn’t amount to anything …..

But trust me both ladies aren’t Nigerians
Because they can’t do any of the above

Ama had reasons not to stay with Michael.
She probably had admirers, but she chose to stay.


Years passed, and things changed, not overnight, but steadily.
From what's been said, it looks like Michael's situation was already steadily improving before he met Zara.

Here are my thoughts:
1. Ama consistently gave everything she had, even her last when he needed it most.
2. Zara only seemed to recognize his potential after his life started to find direction (while he was still with Ama), and she offered support from her extra resources. It was then that she fell in love with him.

Life isn't always smooth sailing; there will always be good times and bad. So, when things get tough, who do you think is more likely to stick around through the difficult times?

Ama was his peace from the very beginning, even during his initial setbacks. She had no obligation to stay with him, but she did.

Zara noticed his progress after it had already begun; Ama was his source of comfort when there was no sign of success.


Michael understands Ama's character and values deeply, which doesn't seem to be the case with Zara.

If he were to pursue a romantic relationship with Zara, he would essentially be starting from scratch.


Lastly, putting money aside, who would he genuinely prefer to be with?
