Nigerian Ladies Stop Marrying Men That Are Not Already Rich / Lessons From Marrying From A Rich Family / "Marrying Lady That Is Above 30 Is Like Buying Newspaper In Evening"- Man Claims (2) (3) (4)
Ladies, Stop Marrying Dream Killers by theInfinity: 9:00pm On Oct 08, 2023 |
Some years ago, I met a young female friend of mine who was a talented writer. She came from a well-to-do family and had the ambition of building a successful career as a renowned international writer. However, after she graduated and got married, things took a different turn, and she became a full-time house wife even before giving birth. Her husband seemed to have married her solely for the purpose of having children, without showing any interest in nurturing her talent or supporting her growth. I can't comprehend how men who engage in such behaviour can sleep at night, essentially extinguishing someone else's dreams and ambitions for their own selfish interests of having children and a full-time house wife. I believe in having a partner who is goal-driven and working together to ensure each other's success. Ladies, it's crucial to understand yourself and the motives of your partner before accepting a marriage proposal. 1 Like |

But it's partly her fault too, she could've told him her plans before they got married and moved on if he didn't agree. I'm sure the husband didn't put a gun to her head and forced her to get married to him. |

Klass99: Even if he is supportive, the demands of children are so that ordinary mortals like me find it very hard to climb up the career ladder once we have them. I know some people will come up with examples of high achieving women who had kids and impressive careers but we don`t know their support systems, how hard they found it to leave their little ones back to go the extra mile for success, how demanding their babies/toddlers were (they are all so different), the working times, the competition factor in their respective career etc. etc. Whichever path we choose, it all comes with a price tag. Have a wondeful day. |

Premium Be Unto You Different strokes for different folks, it is better to understand your partner before signing a lifetime agreement, as for me you can be a stay home wife but you be doing something, period. |

Klass99: It`s true but there are plenty of women who thought they can have it all, career and kids, only to learn that it`s not as easy or feasible as they thought it would be once they had kids. |

Having children is never a reason to abandon your career goal. Both can co-exist. Na excuse you dey find. If you stand your ground, no man has the capacity to make you abandon your goal. More so, from your narration, there is no basis whatsoever to conclude that marriage ruined her dreams. She wanted to become a prolific writer... in school? Seriously? We all wanted more in school. How many people have been able to achieve the things they imagined in school, with or without marriage? Na excuse you dey find. 1 Like |
