Love Or Money


Back then, none of this mattered. It was mostly hookups by uncles and aunts or parents looking for suitable partners for their children who in most cases they had no say in the issue. They just had to accept whoever was deemed suitable for them. But now the 21st century has come with its own dilemma; it's either love or money that determines the lifelong partner. It's a touchy issue and people have their own views on the issue. I thought i should also drop mine on this awesome discussion.


Why go with; 

                       LOVE 

  • it's hard for love to die if it's true, so one can be assured of a loyal lifelong commitment
  • love is a matter of the heart, you are able to understand each other soul to soul 
  • love can withstand the test of time
  • it's hard for the value of love to change..come to think of it, does love even have value?..
  • love makes one a better person
  • love is magical..people in love do the craziest things
  • love is dependable-you can always rely on each other because you are each other's priority
  • love means you can share goals...you have someone to help you grow
  • you have someone you can call your own and also considers you the same
  • you have someone who's always by your side 


                      MONEY 


  • you future is secure
  • you have status in the society
  • you'd get the most expensive gifts 
  • you make friends with people in the high social class
  • you can go for exotic holidays all over the world
  • you can ask for and get anything you want- you don't have to fear or be sympathetic 
  • you have a presentable partner- you can show off with no fear or shame
  • you'll  get an outrageous wedding
  • you can meet up for dinners, lunches at any place and anytime
  • your kids won't have to know what the word 'suffering' means

  

  MY TAKE;


I personally feel people should all work hard to make it in life so that they can start dating when they are stable enough to do so.



Make it work 😘

Motherhood is a never ending journey.. once you get on board you can't just decide to alight.. doesn't matter how you got on it in the first place. I know I am personally scared of this journey; from conception to labour to sleepless nights and dealing with rebellion.. Mostly just scared of the pain but motherhood isn't just about pain, it  sure has its equal share of pain and happiness.The pain however is not as a result of doing anything wrong but rather part of the journey. With that said.. I am not a mother, have never been one and probably won't be one anytime soon but I am still allowed to send a message to mothers.. without them none of us would even exist. The ASPIRING  Mother Children look so cute,  just one look at them and you can't stop thinking of holding your own in your hands. You're so eager to be a mother, the idea of having a mini you, feeding, clothing, loving and caring for it, excites you. It's easy to forget the aspect of fami...

LOVE...An Investment?πŸ€”

Come to think of it, what is love?...Isn't it all about the time, gifts, attention you give to your partner. Every single thing you do for your partner either to win them over or keep them counts. Isn't there an end goal or an expectation in doing all these?  Don't we all expect that the more we give the more we will receive from our partners? And what is an investment , isn't it the action of putting money, effort, time, etc. into something to make profit or get an advantage, or the money, effort, time, etc. used to do this.  We however tend to convince ourselves that our actions are not essentially an investment but rather an expression of love. We've all heard of  partners who've helped the other partner when they were not doing so well in life but get dumped when cette partner makes it big. What happens? Can we say it's a case of falling out of love?.. It's just a case of poor communication between the partners. Both parties should b...

Long Distance Relationship

It’s the trickiest form of dating. Some people are too scared of it but others are willing to give it a try pegging a very low success rate on it. It could be the strongest relationship or the weakest…it all depends on the partners in the relationship. It has its merits and its fair share of challenges. PROS Absence makes the heart grow fonder! The love just keeps growing and it’s like falling in love a fresh each time you meet. Deep connection. Any chance to talk or meet is highly valued and appreciated. The commitment is serious and more effort is put into it. Successful. Most end up in marriage.

The partners trust each other and they are able to hold on to that trust to stay faithful focusing on their goals as a couple. They keep each other strong. Free. The relationsh...
