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 UNSPOKEN: The Abusive Relationship

This time I focus on much deeper issues in relationships that we are often trying to cover up and people rarely talk about them. Domestic violence is something that is often kept on the down low … no one talks about it. It is meant to be a silent suffering and speaking of it is abominable and is like ‘airing dirty laundry’.  In most cases, the victims are often the females In the victim’s perspective this is how it is……. The first time he hits you, he was not in a good mood, The second, it was a mistake; he did not mean it The third time, it was your fault The next time you’re sure he’ll change It never ends!! Action has to be taken before it gets too late and when so much damage has been done. So what can you do as the victim;…… Accept First you have to accept that what is happening is indeed domestic violence and that it is not right. The first stage of solving any problem is accepting that the problem is actually there. Stop making...

In a group c...

THE UNSPOKEN; The Abusive Relationship 2

In most relationships the abusers are men. They usually feel like they own women and therefore have a right to treat them as they wish. This is what they keep telling themselves... They provoked me It was their fault I was angry It's not a habit, happened just this once These are just excuses you tell yourself to justify your actions but this just makes things move from bad to worse. Here's what you should do; Accept You have to accept that what you are doing is not right and start looking at them as mistakes. Confront Face your mistakes and handle them. Lay the blame on yourself instead of the victim and reflect on why it happens and how to prevent it. Be remorseful  You have to apologize for your mistakes and show remorse by following up with an initiative or resolution to change. Seek help  You are eventually going to have to accept that you have a problem if it keeps on repeating itself and do something about it. You could go for ...
