In abroad, I hear ladies say "I am saving for our wedding, my husband and I are saving for our new house. We are saving money to buy our first house, we are saving for next vacation. Etc'
But here, na man carry everything for his head. That is what happens when the source of income for any relationship or marriage is solely on the man. This is common in this part of the world.

Yankiss:
But bros you no try. You should have completed your marriage before the burial Na? Or is it Islamic burial?

Which kind questions you dey ask

Good

Everything happen for a reason, i think she isn't the one for you.

was her money part of the money used? But why will someone use years to save money and now use everything to bury the dead..... And you now use another whole year to save for wedding... na wa o

Meanwhile, maybe the man has been wasting the lady's time by diverting wedding money to something else over the years and she is just tired of waiting for nothing. This kind of man can use the money saved for children's school fees to fund birthday party for his father o.

we don't even know the real reason why the woman left. Just what the man is saying..

He has been wasting her time for years.

Be very happy God saved you.

Men should learn how to dismiss desperate ladies because in this century I don’t understand why a lady should be very very desperate for marriage .

boy man pocohantas do you 10/10.

You were d 2nd fiancee or 1st.

Bitch was double dating!

Lesson: Learn financial planning.

If u had emergency funds set aside, you won't have to use money meant for your wedding for the burial. Those 2 should be saved separately.

Ndo.

sinaj:
Read lots of stories under this O jewa ka eng stuffs and just ended up thanking God for my own situation

Which situation are you in? did someone also left you for another?

Your momma most likely saved u from a lifetime of misery. Be ever grateful to her and hold her memory dear.

u are a woman I pray u born a boy DAT choose wife over u or Neva sent u money but use to do wife birthday. say amen

one of the consequence of not applying wisdom in a relationship. how can a guy be in a relationship and not sense his woman is double dating


I can tell you logically that, the Lady was double dating hence why is easier for her to follow another person


unfortunately my guy, you were being plain and straightforward with her but ladies of nowadays can't be relied on. the least of ladies you can relied on her age 33 above. average ladies from age 32 below can't be giving marital assurance to or else they'll give you straight emotional sickness.

a grown up guy that's due for marriage that's dating 32yrs below are expected to have two hearts, first heart to plan with and second if the first heart disappoint

He is just a young man that is about to start life. Someone has not seen money to chase dreams at his age but you want him to start saving for emergency.
He should have minimize the cost of the burial and then spend the little remaining money in doing a simple wedding

girls? Hmmm

See why I have been advocating for DNA test as a necessity when a child is born as part of medical reports and tests.

These women are dead wicked

wawu. clap for yourself o. Who asked him to leave his mother in the mortuary? And who asked him to marry? What i am saying is that NO BURIAL IS WORTH SAVING FOR FOR YEAR/YEARS. When the mother was alive, did he ever give her all her savings for a whole year? So why do such when she is no more?Nonsense children that will not take care of their living parents but spend even their future money to bury them.

Xisnin:


Because you are not a lady living in Nigeria.

To those insulting the lady. The op didn't tell us her age and how long they have been dating.
If he was serious, he would have opted for court marriage as a sign of commitment but he
asked for one more year.

To me, the lady made the right decision.

Must the man be the one to spend money? If she’s so desperate to the extent of cancelling a planned marriage because the marriage was postponed why didn’t she come up with the funds for court wedding ?

Is Nigeria hidden from the rest of the world? No
There’s no reason why a woman should be very very desperate for marriage in this era and age .

The man dodged a big calamity.
