Lol @ happy home. Generation that hates truth.
@ least I have a home. Marriage is very practical and realistic. The pressures of Marriage can break tested and trusted bonds where financial stability is not even in question not to talk of you 2 dreamers that are so swept up in romance and maybe infatuation that you are planning a marriage without steady income or accommodation. You cannot put the cart before the horse. If you know you love each other, give yourselves a breather from marriage talks, set a target of like 1year in which you both develop yourselves and attain a measure of stability, then you can plan a wedding.
Thank you for the honest advice.

Its good to get married but judging by what you posted, i'll say it sounds like an "impulsive" move ...

The time might not be good for u to settle down ... especially without an apartment of your own ... except maybe, your parents gave u an apartment to live in, all by yourself ..

Djing, i don't have any issue with that but do u have enough savings or have a constant pay from, maybe a club u do dj inhuh

If not, you're in for a rather stressful journey cos when the bills starts popping up from all angles, that love wey dey una eyes, go clear sharply ... i'm not wishing u bad but just telling u the reality....

I hope both of you are not AS sha??

If not, k.ill (pai) that love!
We are both AA. I actually do not have an issue with sorting bills cos i get a steady funds from my lounge and i work at different events almost every weekend. I think i will just ensure i have other source of income just to be on the safer side. Also, I will get an apartment.

The late Onyeka Onwenu once said something profound which still resonates with me till date. She said success in life is your personal responsibility, do not put it on anyone.

I like to rephrase her words in my mind as success at anything in this life is my personal responsibility, I will not put that responsibility on anyone but myself. It can be anything from finding a new job to losing weight, quitting bad habits, etc.

You have decided to put that responsibility on your girlfriend while sounding helpless and acting powerless, like you don't have the werewithal to get your act together and fix yourself. No offence meant but you are like a child/boy in a grown man's body. I don't baby sit grown ups and if I knew your girlfriend I would ask her to walk away until you get your act together.

Can you please take responsibility for your life and your choices, and decide to do better, without hingeing your success on your girl? We are not mindless creatures incapable of self discipline, you are just comfortable with your bad habits and excuses, unwilling to do the work of self improvement, while looking to a woman to rescue you.
Thank you so much for the honest response. God bless you richly. I am not putting any responsibility on her. I have made decision to change and i have been seeing improvements too. Maybe i may be wrong by saying i am always consciuos of all i do when she is around but that is just the truth..... I am always extra careful when she is with me and i am always trying not to hurt her.

You better save towards getting an apartment of your own.

Don't get married and start inconveniencing your sister by bringing your wife to love in her apartment.

Forget about marriage until you get your own apartment.

Incomplete information. Who are you staying with? If it's your parents house with many flats. You're already in your own apartment. That's why I said there's need for more information

Does your fiancee also work? What work does she do. You lack self-control in which aspect?

For you to sit down and evaluate your life like this shows you're thinking properly and you're tending towards self development. Do you know there are men of 35 who don't even take time to think about their life following the right channel?
Thank you for the honest response sir. I am working towards self development. I stay with my sister, she is a single Mother of 2. The husband is late but she is doing very well for herself. I have my own room to myself it's a 2 bed. but deep down, i don't wanna get married nd raise a family here too.

My fiancee makes liquid soap, she sell food items and she will open her shop soon. for now, she sells to pple on her whatsapp nd Instagram.

Self control when it comes to spending money, buying smoke, i still cheat on her which is always as a result of the highness.. so mostly i lodge nd i just live my life like i'm single.

I have tried to stop several times but it only works when she is with me. once she leaves, i usually go back to the Old Ways.... but lately,i have really reduced so many things tho but i'm just scared i might go back again. I just want to marry so she can be around me always.

You're a walking red flag.
Maybe you are right cos i guess i didnt place it well..... It is a actually not that bad. I work in a Lounge on d Island, i get 60k weekly, i work 3 times daily, thats 240k Monthly... I also work with several other event planners where i get Multiple gigs too. I dey see money but the problem is Lack of self control is really ruining me. I spend heavily on irrelevant Things nd it has always been like that for years. But anytime this lady is around or when she is with me, I am always super conscious of all i do. more reason why i don't want to lose her. Once she is around, i am always very careful but as soon as she leaves , these bad Things start again.
