if u split up or divorce, its likely ur gonna take a financial hit. I have friends out in these streets who are scared to leave they lady cuz they don't wanna take the monetary hit.

I been thru it, I took the financial hit, and kept it moving. my piece of mind is worth more than money because I can always make more money. but staying with a bytch that makes u unhappy is no way to live.
Damn, didn't know you divorced. Sorry to read that, but you're right that peace of mind is worth it. I think I'm naive, but I feel with marriage you should be able to triple whatever worth you came in with, so even with half gone, it's more than what you came in with. I don't get how couples are married and broke, especially when both are working!! I shared a house with my mom and I paid 70% of the bills and she paid 30% and we both were able to save a significant amount.

That's what happens in relationships where there's a parasitic element :francis:

man that was almost 2 years ago, so no big deal. that said, it depends on the situation. if u both come in with nothing and have kids, ur gonnna struggle to build up that bread. once u get older or middle age, that's when u really hit your stride for earning.

as for me, I got the house, and to cut a HUGE check at the time, and I keep doing my thing. its very easy to bag new hoes given I have a good job, own my own spot, and essentially have no debt outside of a mortgage. so essentially, I'm able to move around as I please. they be thinking I'm their golden ticket.....:camby:

dude took it pretty bad internally from what i could tell but externally for the most part seemed ok after like 6 months. The first 6 months were rough dude proceeded to lose 60 lbs , for two reasons, the stress of what happened and two :mjlol: she took there car so he had to walk to work everyday, he also grew a big ass beard.


:picard: about a year later she contacted him to be "friends" again. Women are ruthless.

They always try to come back after they see the grass wasn't greener on the other side.

That's big part of it. A lot of young Black boys aren't growing up under the guidance of fathers.

Fam I had my dad and he gave me some jewels but I I'm blessed my mom's put me on game when I was old enough because all of her teaching and stories were stuff that I experienced.Both parents really are important in building that foundation

Man, this should be engraved in every man’s skull. A lot of you know deep down you’re the not even the 3rd choice in the relationship.

You’re way down the pecking order but you’re staying because you believe you can’t do any better. She’s staying because she knows your dumbass will tolerate her bullshyt and pay her way for everything.

If a woman knows she can do better, she’ll wait and wait until the time is perfect to jump ship. They’re on a five year escape plan and y’all oblivious to it. You’re paying for her degrees, shopping sprees, nails just for her to be thirst trapping. Whilst you’re grateful just to get a blowjob on your birthday because you ‘earned it.’ :mjlol:

nikkas will learn the hard way. My girl thinks I’m tight. Nah, I’m frugal. If I’m treating her I better be equally treated. You ain’t no princess, you’re working your way to becoming the queen. The queen doesn’t carry herself like a harlot expecting to be spoilt.

Nah bytch. How am I benefitting from building YOU up? If you’re out there you better be bringing home the bacon as well. Equal rights, right?

Breh, you are preaching. A lot of brehs out here building up women so she can showcase her refined form to the next man. It's a dirty game.

I shared this story on here before I believe but i had a coworker that :
The same almost exact thing happened to, he married a foreign chick, she got here got her degrees (paid by him). They were then set to move out of state so she could start an internship to finish up her doctorate. The day of the move after he had packed up there moving car, she locked the doors rolled down the window a bit and told him it was over she was moving on alone. They were married for almost 8 years. - GMB
:damn:

Nah that’s OD

as time goes on its better to be the final leg the usain bolt with these chicks.

Many brehs are the first, second and third leg. Building up a chick but not having what she desires to take it home.
If u do meet a female like this who revealed she got where she is by usurping the resources of previous partners, don’t pat urself in the back just yet. If given the chance, she’ll do the same to you.

if you’re looking for a partner your best bet is to get with someone far better than you.

That’s why I say fukk love as being the sole or first reason you get married. You have to be on the same page about the money. If you’re dating someone for a couple years, you should be able to tell how they treat their finances.
It really doesn't even take that long. You get an idea shortly after meeting her.
