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 😘

The First Date Drama

So i heard this discussion on radio today and it reminded me of how much i have always wanted to talk about it. Every little aspect..and there is no better time to do it than now when Valentine's Day is just around the corner and y'all are gonna be going on those blind dates , hookups , setups or it might just be that time when you've met that awesome dude or chic! So on those first dates this is what you need to consider to guarantee you that second date; Dressing ladies You need to look good of course but be careful not to overdress or underdress. By overdressing i mean; you don't really have to go shopping just for the date unless you totally have nothing to wear which is highly unlikely. You also don't need to don all your jewelry and make-up coz you'll just end up looking like a clown which is totally not the impression you'd be going for. This isn't the time to experiment!! If you've never tried heels before just...

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...

THE UNSPOKEN; Childlessness

Most people enter into marriages without knowing each other's fertility status , no one even thinks about this in the courtship stage. They are either busy being in love with each other or focusing on getting married that they are not able to think about what happens next. This therefore leads to divorces, infidelity, abusive or spiteful relationships where regret follows when they are confronted with the problem. How do you avoid the situation altogether?.. In the courtship stage when things seem to be getting more serious, it's best to talk to your partner about the issue.  Find out how they feel about kids and if they could handle being childless. Talk about what each of you would do in such a scenario and it's best to be as honest as possible with each other. Explore your options in the case this ever happens to you in the course of your marriage. You should also both get examined by a doctor to determine your fertility status. You are able to make decisions ...
