Marriage Or Money: Mature Insight Only by freepop: 5:16pm On Oct 09, 2017
My lady of about 2 years is at a crossroad; to go or not to.

Here's the detail...She needs to go for a professional training but her parents aren't financially capable. So, she's been acting funny and after much wahala and talk, she asked me if I will sponsor her through the programme(Almost 2 years, registration is about 200k). Well, I told her I will be willing to support but not taking the full responsibility as she's not my responsibility at the moment until after marriage.

Interestingly, she told me that she has an offer from a man who wants to give her the money but on the condition that she will have to marry him now or later. When she told me this, I didn't overract. I simply asked her if she thought about it and what she wants to do now. Jeez! She got angered again that I shouldn't have reacted that way, rather I should have said no and I told her I will support her with xx amount...I laughed in my mind, thinking, na me this girl dey test.

Anyway, the matter now is she's offering me the option of paying the fees and marrying her (that's if the future will be what we envisage) or letting her go with the man who's ready to pay and marry her.

What do you guys think?

I'll encourage you to help her. But don't look at this as an investment because hundred of guys have been sponsoring their ‘girlfriends’ through school, with the promise of marriage but only in the end to be ‘backstab’.

If you have nothing to lose - help her.

Dude... It's your choice.

If you like her and you're serious about it, I'll advice you.

Tell her she has to do two things.
Firstly, sign a document( you can get a lawyer) about this weird agreement. Because it won't be a surprise that after helping her, she'll leave you with flimsy excuses.

Secondly, go to a juju man make she swear. grin
I wan see how she go run with your investment.

I lost interest here. This is stylish coercion, maybe you didn't notice. Why is she telling you? Why do girls do this? Are their parents not options when it comes to getting financial assistance.

Anyway, the matter now is she's offering me the option of paying the fees and marrying her (that's if the future will be what we envisage) or letting her go with the man who's ready to pay and marry her.

More nonsense. This is where she finished work.

It's up to you to give or not. If you give, give out of altruism. It would make it less hurting, just in case you guys don't work out. We don't want you to come crying for us here later.

That girl is the biggest fool on planet earth!

Marry her and curse the day you were born! angry

Just look at the condition she gave you. 2 years and she's as cheap as 200k? shocked WTF! angry

Do you need a soothsayer to tell you that you are with the wrong person? undecided undecided That's a red flag you are looking at there my guy.

A girl who is open to being a trophy wife is a disaster waiting to happen! angry

If she or her family can't afford it, she should leave it until she can afford it. Her life doesn't depend on it because she can save towards it. If she take up a 50k job and saves 20k per month, she will have 240k at the end of the year for her study. If she takes up a 100k job and saves 30k per month, she will have 360k at the end of the year for her study! If she decides to save 40k, she will have 480k at the end of the year for her study! There are savings schemes like that in banks in Nigeria na. That's how seemingly low income earners can afford to live big! Savings do the magic!

When I say that marriage is the biggest scam on earth right now, it's no joke at all. angry angry It's absolutely parasitic, especially when the other party is fighting for their pocket! angry
