Question....in reality..how many wife-to-be would agree to sign prenup before marriage?

In the instance above,the young woman is insecure and unsure of "her benefits" thus the insistence and emotional blackmail of breaking up with him.
If the Bobo would reason with his head and not his heart,he doesnt need a vision or prophetess to tell him what'd in store for him,should he proceed with the wedding
Exactly.

It is obvious the argument about the choice of marriage type is not about "being together", it is about financial benefits.

She is trying to ensure she can claim some of his things from the "union" if it collapses, he is trying to ensure he does not lose anything if the "union" collapses.

craziebone:
what do you mean by "bargaining power" especially in this case?
In psychology of humans, when there is an interaction between 2 people and they want something from each other. If this 2 things they want are of the same type but yet are different, then one person either has to change their commitment or comply with the other person's wishes.

Commitment will most likely require persuasion.

Compliance will most likely require force and fear. She is already attempting this.

Otherwise the only other outcomes are either:

1) Full resistance from both parties

2) A compromise position for both parties

The second is not always possible on binary issues. This is a binary issue.

That is where power comes into play.

Who has the power (and is willing to use the power for his/her aims) is the person that is likely to come out on top.

The power each party will have in this situation will come from the following:

1) Who likes the other person more

2) Who wants to get married more

3) Who has more options in the short and long term

Someone with less power can still stick to their resistance position instead of changing it to compliance or commitment to fit with the other's approach, but they are likely to lose out the most. But some people are comfortable with kamikaze decision-making.

The other approach someone with less power can take is to get people with influencial powers on the more powerful party to influence the other party to comply/commit to the desire of the less powerful. E.g. speak to their relatives or mentors to change their position or force them to comply.

i am sorry if love doesn't exist to you.

Secondly, we still see men and women who just get up and abscond from marriages just like that. We have seen men run off with other women, leaving their wives and kids. We have also seen cases where women eloped with their lovers abroad, leaving behind, the man and children. So what's the difference?

And no, i wouldn't like a case where if i just want to get out of a marriage or she wants to get out of a marriage with me, i or she have to prove a point! Just tell me you are tired of staying and that's it! I will just let you go! We can talk about the welfare of the children, if any and if they are not of ge yet. The point is, the flimzier the reason, the more readily i would let you go. I also expect the same thing from her. The flizier the reason i give the more readily i would expect her to let me go. Why on earth do you want to stay with someone who just doesn't want you anymore? She doesn't need to come up with a beautiful case before i let her go.

Just for the records, i do not see marriage as different from a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Marriage is actually the continuation of a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship after some traditional thing (be it church, mosque, court or traditional marriage) has been done. There is no physical, emotional, psychological difference afterwards.

@Sagamite, what do you think?
What I see in it is two people protecting their best interest.

It is in his best interest to have only a traditional marriage. It is in her best interest to have a court marriage.

She is threatening, but at the end of the day, it is the person with the more bargaining power and will that can win/get their way.

As per love, I am yet to see anyone on Earth that can explain what it is to me:

Arami92:
So question,

I'm a 23 year old woman... I very much desire to be married one day. Even now at this age my heart yearns to meet that special someone. BUT...my parents and many others keep advising me that now is not the time for love..that I should focus on my career, make sure I'm successful and independent so that I never end up depending on any man...I've heard many say that men want women who are assets not liabilities! So with that advice the options I have is to put chasing love on hold and chase a career, most good careers take much time and dedication. So the average woman who wants to be a ceo,medical doctor, phd holder, lawyer, etc..won't have arrived to her destination until about 30...so now these same women are being punished?! What am I to do..how do you ensure success in your career and still have a successful marriage.

It's like woman are in. Double bind, we are encouraged to be strong independent successful and self reliant while we are young, only to be punished for it later..while men who are encouraged to do the same reap benefits from waiting and establishing themselves before settling down...

I essentially have two groups of friends. My single and driven girls! Who are working very hard to make something of themselves..and my not so driven girls who are dating..many of them living with their boyfriends and mainly supporting His dream hoping he will finally pop the question..

Where is the middle ground??
Hi,

To be frank, from the way you posed your question, I can read that you have positioned it to being an impossible case.

The impossibility is hedged on the argument "my parents and others told me this is not a time for love".

As much as we love and respect our parents, the fact they say something does not mean it is right.

In this case they are wrong and they might inadvertently create long term problems for you.

I used "might" because maybe you might end up having drank water from the fountain of youth and be effing stunning in your 30s. Who knows. grin grin grin grin grin grin

You putting love/dating/chasing on hold when you are at your peak is a risky approach.

Take this from Sagamite, ..................Sagababa, Sagamilo, Professor of Womantology aka Fokasibe professional (etc etc etc, abeg e too long), that most women reach their mating-attraction peak in their late teens to the 20s, while most men reach their peak from late 20s to late 30s. Trust me on that.

That said, note some Men do have artificial peaks in their teens and early 20s.

If you are not utilising your peak to maximise your returns that is like being Usain Bolt and saying you will not get into 100m racing until your 30s.

At best he would probably run 9.95s if he is lucky. Still fast, but not what he could potentially achieve.

That said, I emphasis "most", some men and women are still flipping hot outside this brackets, but they are few and far between. Some even achieve their peak outside this bracket.

Here is an example of someone that breaks the rules by exception.

Here is Lorraine Pascale when she was in her late teens and early 20s.
https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/08/31/article-2196430-0D1A7974000005DC-643_306x492.jpg https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/08/31/article-2196430-000016C500000CB2-611_306x492.jpg

Here is Lorraine Pascale now in her late 30s and early 40s.

If I was to choose, I would choose her now. She is at her peak.

God knows I would tear it up like a raging bull on Crystal Meth if she comes to my place and we get it on. ......I swear to Allah!

The middle ground is to be looking out now.

Three important things:

1) Starting looking for a fit.

2) Start building a good reputation.

3) Work on your body in the long run (Slim or Orobo, just get curves in the right places that qualify for ogling)

As for (2), let many men that meet you now know you as that lovely/perfect girl, so even if they don't date you now, if they see you in future, you have some [what I called in my PhD dissertation] "desire capital" stored up. Ensure majority of men you come across have a good impression of you in terms of, not only looks, but social skills and personality.

So even if you don't get any 'Mr Right' now, when you are in your 30s if you ever meet any man you have come across in your past, because of your personality, he would still be keen (if you still look good, even though not at your peak).

Imagine you have been arrogant, rude, mean and insulting when you were at your peak, would you expect those men now at their peak to elect to be with you?
HealthRe: Is It Possible For A Hiv Positive Man Not To Pass It To His Wife? by Sagamite(m): 6:05pm On Jul 10, 2015
BKings:
My cousin's husband has been diagnosed with hiv. When I heard the news I put a call to her, asking her if she has it too but she said no. The man was first diagnosed +ve last november, after he became too weak and according to her, they took it as false because she was tested negative. March again this year, the man also tested positive but she negative. I then advised her to go for another test which she did few days ago and said it is negative. My question, is it possible for the man to have it and not pass it to her, or is she just lying in fear of stigmatization? She said she has stopped unprotected sex with him since last two months though, but how about other previous months they've been doing it raw. Doctors, experienced ones, please kindly say something. I'm really feeling bad
Reading this, it is paining my body seriously that your cousin is testing negative.

How come she has not caught it yet?

Life is so unfair.

So her husband was testing positive for a deadly disease and she was still moronic enough to be having unprotected sex with him until 2 months ago?

Kai!

Why has she not caught this for God sake?

God give her HIV please na!

I beg you, Baba Jesu!

I will go to church this sunday purposely to pray to God that she catches it.

Stuuuuupid people need to die.

And some cretins would come with the tired platitude of "how does what 2 consenting adults do in the privacy of their bedroom got to do with you" when you say homosexuality should not be legalised. undecided

I can fully understand why he has lost his licence. You have to respect the rules of the place you live in.

That is why it is important to me that I ensure the rules is in alignment to what I want to live with.

If it is legal, then it would never stay in the privacy of the bedrooms. If it is illegal, it would mostly stay there.

This is serious! UK based Yetunde Bustline Oduwole, 44, and Babatunde Bernard, 35, used to be an item until things went sour between them. Baba Tee is now dating Dupe Odulate, 32. But Yetunde is finding it difficult to deal with the emotions of breaking up with the chubby comedian.

In a YouTube video released yesterday, Yetunde did not only cry, she cursed Tunde over claims that he embarrassed her before the world. Watch the heartbreaking video above while what she said is this:

“Tunde, this afternoon again, you embarrassed me before the whole world. You’ve been embarrassing me right from the 18th of January. I got about 20 messages today from your Facebook friends, and they were asking me if we are quarreling that you have removed all my pictures from your wall.

Even to the extent that you went to the albums I created for you, and removed all my
photos there, and you left my friends, Tolu and the rest of them. Why should you embarrass me this much? What did I do to you? Is it a crime to date you?

Why is it that every time we fight, you do drastic things? Hmm, I pity you… I really pity you. Don’t you know that they don’t offend me? I’m always sincere with all the men I date, and if they are dishonest with me, they find it terrible and difficult to climb up in life again.
I told my God that he should greatly punish any man that upsets me, and He always does it for me. Just yesterday, Babs ( my former husband ) and his wife were calling me, begging me to please have mercy on them.

His wife begged me to forgive him, but I said there was nothing he did to me that I have forgiven him. Look at all the years…10 good years he has been struggling, and he has been unable to achieve success. And I doubt if he can make it because he has wronged me.
I have forgiven him, and I have asked God to restore all his possessions. I’m just warning you Tunde Bernard…hmm, I’m not the kind of person you offend. If you still want to bear the name Baba Tee, you better stop being on my matter.
You had better beg my creator because I did not offend you; I have never held grudges against you for a whole day. You are wicked, and you don’t think.
..breaks down in tears

nerodenero:
I blame NFF for making some issues public. The fact that they made this matter public is the reason it has generated a lot of controversies. The reason Eagles' matches are rotated from one state to another ever since they stopped playing at National Stadium, Abuja and in particular Lagos is political and this isn't good as it has cost us in the past.

Enyeama should be aware of all these political moves by government and besides, other junior teams have played in the same stadium and yet we have had no issue. NFF would have tolerated this if the fear was expressed by our opponent and not the Eagles' captain.

Enyeama should also remember that Decree 101 has not been abolished which empowers government to dictate how football is organised in the country and whoever pays the piper, dictate the tune. Enyeama's outburst, though normal, put him in a wrong position with the government.

Above all, for our football to grow, government must hands off and all challenges would be solved easily.
What pure stupidity!

So because it is a government "policy" if he objects to it with logical reasons, he must be punished?

2. DRESSING: The way you dress they say determine how you are addressed.If you dress like a LovePeddler you attract a LovePeddler Like you...you dress moderately you attract sensible and serious minded people.You wear a 60cm width trouser you might remain single forever.

3. LOOK: No need to say much about this cause it is a matter of common knowledge before a Lady say "Hi" to you on her own...she must have like your appearance and vice versa.Look entails and contain your figure,stature and of course beauty.

4. PERSONALITY: In terms of elements that define the quantity and quality of your entity personality is what seal the deal.It entails what makes you you.

5. ACHIEVEMENTS: On campus,companies and associations successful people tend to have more people of opposite flocking to them.

Now she is emotionally down and dont know what to do, even though her husband is caring but this doctor is GOD's plan for her.
