If my wife is not making wave in her engagement for good 10yrs na me sef go divorce her. I can't move on the future with a stagnant and dependent woman So if I will want her to be richer than me is not a question. If she's richer than me, is not her fault but a challenge for me to buckle up I have nothing against a woman richer beside managing a lady go beyond the wealth in her hand or not. |

Biblical references- if u believe Genesis 2:18-24 And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him." Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name. So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. Genesis 1:26-28 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth." Ephesians 5:22-24 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. 1 Timothy 2:11-14 Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, fell into transgression. |

AntiBrutus:The truth is that men who can’t handle women use money to control them and sm women desire/respect only men who can control them with money. The relationship dynamics is all about money, love, attitude, intelligence are variables and money is a constant. That is the kind of relationship people are encouraging both guys and gals. |

Terrible generalization. Just as we have men who become Lord and master the moment they make it, so we also have some women who may not handle success well. From my observations of women who changed after becoming rich, their husbands maltreated them psychologically and emotionally when they were housewives. Some abused them verbally and often ill treated them when they needed some cash. So they tend to not care anymore when they make money, a situation the man may now term as non submissiveness and disrespect. |

luminouz:I said from my observation, meaning events around me. 90% of those women chop abuse tire as housewives. It's even the abuse wey dey make dem begin hustle or find jobs. I don also hear same story tire from acquaintances, church members, family members and women in my group. So I'm speaking from the standpoint of direct knowledge. |

as a.man. i cant say such coz we are now in a world where the women have more opportunities than the men .in most homes now women now perform mens duty by paying.up the bills fees feeding and more.not because the men doesnt want to but they cant due to the bad economic situation |

[s] AntiBrutus:[/s] Sorry I hardly respond to female post but on this I have just one or two question to ask you. 1. Which tribe are you from? 2. Where is your pride as a woman or lady? So for the guy to say women shouldn't be more wealthy than their husband now warranted you to come here and spew that *I can't date broke guy nonsense* bah? I'm not against it for woman to be wealthy than their husband that application or word only good and work well with older generation not present day a s s holes walking around calling their pooh slay babes ok. I can imagine how life would have be so miserable if Churchill Tontoh ex was a poor guy We just read another bitch illiterate called Olajumoke just dumped her hubby who was with her when she was going around with smelly sweat and booming armpit selling bread in dead hot sun.Pls you ladies of nowadays sorry don't deserve to be richer than your fiancee or hubby take it or burst it ok. And for that *I can't date broke guy* let ladies too go and work and stop waiting for made guys go and work so you can spend as you want ok. |

megareal:So am I! I have also seen wives who just let their success ruin their homes. I could narrate very personal and traumatic experiences I've seen ma'am. Sometimes, when women are in a position of power,its very hard to be humble for them. Few women conquer their inner selves in this regard!! |

dukeprince50:you can challenged by your wife be successful but not for the purpose of controlling her with money. It's time men start earning their respective not buying it. You can't see buy respect from a successful women but you can earn one. Respect bought is not respect. The sooner men realise that the better for them.he who has ears should hear. |
| Re: "Never Allow Your Wife To Be More Successful Than You" - Man "Nigerians React" by Tanyabee(f): 2:42pm On Apr 21, 2019 |
dukeprince50:Haven't you heard of women that are less rich than their husbands and do exploits than what their husbands could ever think of.But come to think of it,why do men don't want their wives to get richer? I guess their ego comes into play but at the same time women that have worked hard to get to where they are,kudos should be given to them. To the women, build your life first before you become someone else's wife or you might not get the chance to. I can just feel the society is being biased |
| Re: "Never Allow Your Wife To Be More Successful Than You" - Man "Nigerians React" by megareal: 2:44pm On Apr 21, 2019 |
luminouz:I'm not arguing that it doesn't happen, I'm just saying a factor to that happening may be what I had stated. However, I like the "sometimes", you used because I also know a lot of homes where the wife is the breadwinner, paying school fees and running parallel business just to keep the family afloat yet you will never know except you are around them. Dem plenty too. So it's neither here nor there. |

AntiBrutus:Seriously a lot of Nigerians(both male and female) have a terribly poor mindset towards basically everything, from social interactions, to business transactions to relationships. An average Nigerian man will consider money as his only card to play in a relationship and reason thus: Make money, Impress one kain girl, Have sex with her or wife her. An average Nigerian female will reason thus I Have sex with him, that's all I have to do, I am automatically entitled to everything about the man. That's why they go to stupid extremes to get no dey only to waste it impressing women rather than doing something concete with it in their lives Some even carry this mindset into marriage, the only thing they are bringing into the marriage is their bodies, that is why you will hear don't give a man sex so he will not get tired of you and be forced to wife you, like you are dangling sex like a carrot, any man in my own opinion who marries for the sole purpose of being legally able to have sex with a woman is not worth his salt. Yeye people But thanks to the ones that have sense |

Johnnycife:That is just one that you cannot use to judge everyone. I also know of a family. It was after the husband died and the inlaws were coming to claim property that they realized that the woman was the breadwinner. Even the children didn't know because she would give the husband the school fees to give them.The respect they had for the woman was huge. There are many homes where the woman is the breadwinner and there is peace. We always like to cite the negative stories especially when dealing with gender issues, marriage, etc. |

Jman06:Sir, if a man spends 60% of your life trying to buy affection and respect from a woman, then he has wasted his life. If you perceive a woman will not respect you if she becomes richer than you, then be smart not to waste your precious time and resources in the name of being married to her, Just LET HER GO, invest your time and resources in your self and make something worthwhile out of your life. The way men bury their potentials I'm nonsense relationships amaze me. |

prince3009:you better do. I know someone who has never as much as seen her husband atm card not to talk of how much he earns even though he earns much higher. He wants a joint account and wants to be the sole signatory, now the catch is he claims he already has salary account so his pay won't be going into he joint account only the wife's. Real life story. To hell fire with submission. You only reap what you so. |
