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 😘

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 couple is not distracted by ‘small issues’, they are working towards a common goal and clearly know where the relationship is headed… they do everything possible to make it work. Trust . 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

The most important ingredient in Love

Some people tend to think that as long as there's love, nothing else matters. It's all they need. But how many people have been so in love but still ended up not working out... many!! It gets people wondering what could possibly be greater than love ?!?! Some people even stop believing in love thinking it's overrated. Well here's the thing about love, both partners want to feel appreciated, acknowledged, respected, understood... all that..it is what forms the bond in a relationship. But there's also that other side of every human being that doesn't want to fail, everyone wants to win or at least die trying; we all want to be right, have the superior opinions, win the arguments. It boosts our ego, makes us feel valuable, indispensable. So what happens in a relationship; what breaks them.. It's easier to receive/ take than give as it is less risky, less demanding, I mean all you have to do is sit back, relax and receive . Humans are however reciproca

Valentine Love

I totally made that word up but give me a chance to explain it to you… Valentine’s is considered THE day of love; a day when people express and celebrate their love for each other.   Some people don’t buy into the idea feeling like there’s no need to have a day to do something that should actually be done every single day. I actually am for the idea of valentine’s; a day to do something just a little extra. Valentine’s however present an idea of a ceremonial love, expressing love on specific occasions then going back to a lull, being comfortable and not putting in extra effort. This could be birthdays, holidays… special occasions. So what really is a valentine love? A love that is inconsistent, absent most of the time, only presented as a gift when it’s convenient… just enough to keep the fire from dying out but not really adding any wood to fuel it. This kind of love slowly gets toxic and becomes an obsession, an addiction. It’s harder to leave when the droplets
