HelipsTech: Very common more than you could imagine. One man I knew literally said that as his life story. He said that he worked hard and waited long enough to make it before starting a family. He started a family very late and still, no enough money at the end of the day. He said he wouldn't have wasted time starting a family if he knew that he would still turn out like that for him. |

Afolue: I know it is not easy out there for many ladies not to talk of guys. Things are hard, like very hard for many people most especially unemployed and underemployed graduates who are still running against time. This is why I can't stop investing because economy is getting harder everyday with this man's economic policies 1 Like |

Afolue:Men dey! Not all men are insecure, there are men who won’t tell a woman to "sit down there or don't leave there" for no reason. Stop deluding yourself; some men treat women with kindness and respect and are not controlling in any way. I even have a brother who is very responsible. He has dated difficult women, but that did not compromise his values. He often questions why men cheat and why they mistreat women. Men who are wicked or irresponsible only make excuses for their behaviour. Women need to strive to connect with the right men. As I grew older, I realized that one can work on attracting the right type of people, so I focused on building connections with those who align with my values. Currently, I surround myself with responsible people; my temperament doesn’t even allow me to engage with problematic people. I can’t having a heated or violent argument with anyone. When someone starts to cause me issues, I simply detach myself from them. Peace of mind is essential for mental health. |

Merry100:one shouldn’t see that as control. It make no sense for a man to control are woman in a senseless way. Now, what’s wrong when your wife wants to attend a party or an outing, then, you as the Husband is not in , can’t he tell her not to go anywhere and she obeys?. Avoid analyzing point in a weak sense. A man is the head, after a woman leaving her father, her husband is the next. Even if she wants to go see her father, the husband has the right to tell her not to go and she must obey. With all cited examples, Is it not same as sit down !Am not saying any man must do that. But all husband’s power is up to that level over their wives. You shouldn’t boss your wife because you want her to know you are the boss. If she doesn’t know these, then she isn’t fit. Not responsible for a marital home. Weak men cheat themselves out of ignorance. A man must be responsible, yes. By all standards. So as to maintain his reputation for who he is! |

Afolue:🤣And she must obey. I am the head, you are the tail. You dare not go to your father's house because I have commanded you not to go there. I just don't understand some men. The traditional mindset is deeply ingrained in them, and they expect every man to follow this perception. A guy doesn't need to marry a woman he can control like a toddler. If a man is responsible and marries a woman who is also responsible, respect will flow naturally. Responsible people know how to handle situations maturely; they don't play power games. |

luminouz:Bride price does not give a man the right to control, degrade or disrespect a woman Not all men even pay high amounts as bride price, and some families rejects bride price. My father paid my mother's bride price during their engagement, but my grandpa returned it back to him and said, "my daughter is not for sale." |

You lots are the ones looking for rich, handsome, six packs and all that jazz but he can't demand submission from you?

Man's hustle is so much. Atleast by 49, a hard-working man suppose to have a good bank for settling down and starting a family. Why the rush? Atleast by 75, most of your kids must have reach 20. If you die, your wife will take over from where you stop!

It doesn't matter. The main thing is, your children are already adult before old age will kill you finally. And having money to train and supply to their needs is another important thing too.

Don’t let anybody put pressure on your neck, forever is not a day journey. Once you’re doing well and have a job, people automatically assume the next thing is marriage which’s not suppose to be like that I have my whole life to plan for before marriage 🤷♀️ calm down to find the right person to love and worth the love. Forever is too long not to be happy. If they call you to talk about marriage when you’re not ready drop the call. |

Love800: As long as you achieve that aim, no problem. Because it would be a sad thing if one decides to work and make enough money first, to wait very late before having kids but at the of the end day, he fails to make that money as we have seen before. That would be a double loss |
Love800(m): 10:06am On Feb 02 |
You wrote well. Actually, it is also advised that you should not wait till the last day when you have achieved alot, before you dive into marriage life, because it going to take a long time to gather massive wealth, which leaves you with old age! Along the line or during the process of working, if you sense that the little you have is enough to start a family with managing and disciplined lifestyle before you reach your zenith(good amount of money), you can go ahead with marriage! maasoap: |
