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 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...
