“My mum has told me never to settle with a woman who is not working” – Chike

Chike recently shared insights into the relationship advice he received from his mother during a recent interview.

He revealed that his mother has consistently warned him against settling down with a woman who is not working or making meaningful contributions to her environment.

According to him, she emphasized the importance of choosing a partner who already has something going on in her life, noting that otherwise, the man may end up taking on excessive responsibilities.

In his words: …

“I think everyone should look for a partner that adds value. I personally, my mom has said this thing to me several times that no matter how the love is doing you, no settle with woman wey no get wetin she dey do. She has told me that before that don’t you ever do it. Like I know you as my kid, number one and number two I know women. It’s not someone that is pretending to be doing something. Not that they’d open shop in Lekki but you’re the one paying rent every year.

No matter how you care about that person, if they are not productively adding to the production, environment, don do it. Worse off is if they also have the baggage of  family, don’t do it. Cause you know it’s not all of us that are coming from comfortable places.

Family

Maybe you meet an Ada, and she’s the one taking care of her whole family and she’s not productive, you have inherited the family…
