Dear LIB readers: My ex left me to marry another woman because of how much I earn

From a female LIB reader
My ex-boyfriend and I had a conversation yesterday about the reason he dumped me four years ago to marry another girl he'd started dating about two years after we started dating. My ex and I started dating in 2008, but by early 2010 he met another woman who he married nine months later. He broke up with me just four months before the wedding. I was so hurt and devastated that for three years I would not give another man a chance. I didn't have closure because I was tormented by why he chose another woman over me. Eventually we had the conversation yesterday after we met at a mutual friend's wedding on Saturday. What he told me was shocking. He said he loved me more but decided to marry the other lady because she earned more than I did. I was earning N85k at the time while the lady was earning N250k. He figured an extra N165k was enough reason to marry her. How is this even a reason to marry? Are some men this small minded? Is this a genuine reason or he just said it to throw me off? I wanted closure but this has made me more confused.

Hmm, some broke ass lazy guys would choose a richer woman, but for me I think it's jst a reason, he probably was tired alrdy. So is he happy? Try n move on wit u life, this is 2014 gf.

The guy is an ASSHOLE! U just see it as an act of God. What if u two were already married before he decided to marry another lady? Thank God for ur life.

My dear don't be confused but be grateful to God that the marriage didn't happen cos that guy neva loved you from day 1, he's just a jerk ass opportunist.

fikky babe said...

Sorry lady.
Don't be shocked. We humans marry for the weirdest of reasons. The issues starts when the reason we marry isn't solid and fails to make us happy anymore.

Anonymous said...

Sweetheart... closure is overrated. Some people stop living because they're too busy chasing closure.. Whatever reason someone has for cheating on and subsequently leaving you is a reflection of who they are not who you are. And for a reason as stupid as money?... you dodged a bullet, it's clear this one is a small minded liability!

And the male chauvinists and poor retarded guys will say ladies are the only ones that marry for money..

BONARIO NNAGS said...

He doesn't deserve you dear.
Was surprised when I opened the blog and saw this post. I just had my launch at a restaurant with and a friend and we joked how I left a very good girl during my NYSC days coz she doesn't know what siesta is.
And the man overheard our conversation and told me "if you eve meet any good girl that is as low as 30% tushed, don't let her go help her grow,good girls are very rare.
And that made me regret my action years ago.
Dear moveon you don't deserve a man like him,you deserve someone who loves you no matter how weighty the sentiment is.

Lol. The reason he gave you simply means he never loved you, so be happy he even left you, because a man that truly loves you will not tell you that, will not leave you because you are earning less than another woman, as if you will be the bread winner of the family

Why date a guy for more than a yr if he ain't ready to marry u. I am sure he married her coz she must be to no nonsense type that won't be there for him for more than a yr. he knows he culd keep u for 10 yrs and u won't ask questions or issue threats abt leaving the relationship, guys don't respect weak minded girls.

My dear, this has absolutely nothing to do with you. You were dating a bitch and an opportunist. Be glad you dodged the bullet because you would have been stuck with the low life. His wife is probably experiencing what you would have been going through. Thank God for rescuing you jare.

There are many great men out there. You dont have to understand his reasons for leaving the relationship in order to get the closure you need. Put God first & love yourself enough to move forward. Learn from this & dont block your blessings because of what that sick boy did to you. You have one life to live. Enjoy it to the fullest. All the best.

You should thank your God that he left you when he did and brace yourself up because he's not worth that stress you gave (or still giving) yourself. I can tell you that if that reason was truly why he left you, then he will still leave this new one he married when he finds another finer and richer babe with huger income. Be happy with yourself and your income, at least you are gainfully employed and receiving an amount which is better than stealing or some other source of income. Open up your mind for another better relationship with your head ( not your emotions)and divine direction.

It's not really about the money.
Presently, I have two women in my life, one I will call. The first has a good job, well paid and all, earns more than me at the time,( though she doesn't know my financial status has appreciated past hers, all because I don't flaunt it), the second doesn't even have a job as I write. They love me no doubt in their own ways but I have decided to go with the second.
At some point I wanted to go with the 1st but I asked myself few questions, and I realized it's not about the money but marital happiness.
I have decided to break up with the first and get married to the 2nd.
If she asks me in the future my reason for walking away, I will simply tell her that she always wanted to control me as she did show it and even said it once " No man can tell me what to do with my money "

Wow. This is surprising to hear. The man is superficial and looks like he is depending on a woman to make him comfortable when it should be the other way around. It's a good thing you didn't marry him. Sometimes God allows things to happens for certain reasons. So that means that if your ex ever met another woman that made significantly more than his current wife he may cheat on her for the money. Or does is mean when his current wife has to stop working to raise their kids he may leave her if they have financial difficulty? Who knows? This is a blessing in disguise dear poster.

This same issue happened to my sister. while she was working in the bank as a graduate trainee she was earning 100k and her BF of 4 years, along the line met another lady who was working at shell. Hmmmmmn to cut the long story short, this guy dumped my sister after 4 years and went ahead to marry the Oil & Gas lady. My sister was so hurt and very heartbroken that she even placed a curse on the guy. after some years she met this guy again and they exchanged contact, then she asked him that why did he leave then and he said it was because he met his present wife who works in an oil company and earns so well so he had to SECURE his future with her CHAI!!!!!!..................



Just last month, this same guy that dumped my sister to secure his future with his oil and gas wife called my sister and was begging her to loan him 50k. My sister was shocked and was so surprised that he even had to gut to ask her for money. that is what we call KARMA.

The oil &Gas wife treats him like trash and he dosent even have a say in his own home. He's presently begging my sister for forgiveness....But that is old story now, My sister is married to an awesome guy who treats her like GOLD

All you guys who go around doing GOLD DIGGER and claiming you love the girl but deep inside your mind u know ure in the relationship becos of monetary gains or becos the girl has rich parents........hmmmmmmmmmn WE HAVE WHAT WE CALL KARMA...

You cant hurt an innocent girl, dump her after stringing her along for several years and you think God wont JUDGE your ASS.

Gold Digger Men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I laughed so hard when i heard the girl has thrown him out and seized his passport.

Fortune said...

Talking of small mindedness, it is the fault of women. Nigeria women believe that a man must do all things for them even when they have the means to help themselves. The higher earner woman will definitely demand less from this guy man.
Nigerian women need to change their marital orientation.
A friend of mine before marrying made it clear to his wife that he must control all monies in the family. Infact he collects the wife,s salary and give her the one she needs for personal effects in the month.

The Traveller said...

There are sides to this:
1. He said it to throw you off. Meaning he is either ashamed or not bold enough to admit the truth. Not sure you want to be with that kind of person. Only good reason for this approach is where the true reason could really hurt you and he is trying to be considerate and protect your emotion. Yet, for me, this still isn't acceptable as its best to tell you so you can fix the issue with your next relationship.

2. He told you the truth. If he did tell you the truth then he is indeed shallow. If it was a woman that leaves a man for such a reason, we'd be quick to call her names.
I wonder if his wife knows him as a shallow gold digger. Either way, time to move on. You sound d like a great chick. Please, give your heart another opportunity to love and a good man an opportunity to experience you.

What difference does it make whether men are shallow or not? Women have been marrying for money for centuries. People's needs are different.

I believe him. Most lazy men that ascribe to Independent women, would marry a womn with good salary to help out in the home. Not saying there is anything wrong in earning a good salary as a woman....but if a man wants to marry me cos of that, don't dream you'll be spending my money. You should be glad you are rid of the lazy oaf.

Gbam... bestestest answer so far. Nigerian women, dating people for 4 yrs, 7 yrs, ogini? Why? Na after 4 yrs, this one dumped you, gave you some shitty reason bc he's looking like, we r at a wedding and you came to corner me at a wedding to ask me something I don't even recall why I did. You got what you wanted to hear. I would have said bc you were stupid for holding on this long to something that happened a while ago, thats why I broke up with you. Silly post.

For every guy that does this, there are 100 women that do the same. Try finding a girl of your dream on $85k and see how far you get.

I wouldn't marry the poster either unless I make less. She would be nothing but a liability.

Linda u r trying to cover up fake news u fed us yesterday. Channel TV never said so

I dated a guy like that. Always putting me down because I was still working on my MSc. He was always flaunting girls he had met at work earning good money. It didn't take me long to realise that even if I got a good job after sch that will not change his attitude towards me and money. I played his ass and dumped him.

Dat guy is a broke ass dude........... dats why he cud tink d way he did

Anonymous said...

My dear its the same story as myself. One particular guy was looking to settle down and was pestering me that he wanted to marry me, bought me stuff and was really trying to reel me in. We lost touch and I eventually met up with him when he was already married. The guy told me that well at the time, he had two choices that I was tall and his on-off girlfriend was tall and he decided that if either of us declined his proposal he will just marry the other person.
I met him about two years ago again and this time he had a string of girlfriends while married to his wife. When I spoke to him about cheating on his wife he told me that. Man must not leave by bread alone and his wife was far away from him at that time and he needed to keep body and soul together. Praise the Lord!!! I didn't marry dat Mofo!! so my dear count yourself blessed!!

Must there be a reason to dump someone? I don't want again no go suffice? What if the rich person is also a better fit? Or the girl with papers what he always wanted. No body ever told you all is fair in love and war?

For me o, if you rather be elsewhere, then get to stepping.

We have dogs, opportunists, people with no sense of value, or warped sense of value in both sexes. Thank God that He removed this mad man from your life.

Many see marriage as an escape, somewhere to eat from. A few see it as a life time journey of two partners to work and create a family that God will be pleased with.

Thank God for your life, hope you have found that great person

Anonymous said...

I really dnt understand what all u guys are going on about. If I understand the story well, the guy had a choice to make between two girls he was dating and decided to use various yardsticks to make his decision.

Imagine the tables were turned, and it was the girl trying to choose. Your guess is as good as mine. As much as trivial things lile standard of living, family affluence shldnt be a standard for love, you wld only be a fool if u dnt factor them all in, especially wgen torn between 2 ladies u equally love, or hopd on the same level.

The guy is correct guy. He had to trade up. Because it is a woman everyone is calling the guy a bad name. He is my hero. He saw a better option and moved on. Women do it all the time. Cry me a river! The guy is the ultimate dude. This news just made my day.

U ar a great fool

Lagos Lawyer said...

People marry (or un-marry) for different reasons; love usually being a distant consideration. The guy made a choice he felt best suited to his circumstances. It may work. It may not. Good luck to him. You should make a CHOICE to put the episode where it belongs: in the past, and live life. "All is fair in love and war".

maxiust said...

I like the guy..Sorry to say. Thats how you women treat us guys. You go for highest bidder. Thats how it feels when you ladies sample guys based on materials. Guys should emulate this. If the whole world can adopt this standard, may be our ladies will sit up and choose based on their heart and not guys pockets

My sister, thank God for His mercy towards you and how he delivered you from this small man. From what you have said the woman he married may not be his last bus stop. If he finds another lady that ends higher, the guy go port o! My sister please move on and meet the true man that God has kept just for you. That small man was NOT your husband.

to the guys...do well to make your money . do not marry because of money that's not a reason enough. i can tell you that, the girl will only insult you if she finds out she earns or has money more than you do....it will only takes a God fearing girl to be submissive and respectful even when she has all.A friend of mine told me how he has been providing for his family all the years he was married to his wife until things went bad. The wife turned around to ask him what he did with his money? u can imagine. this was a dude that has been all and about taking care of everything and everybody.

I HAVE QUESTIONS BEFORE I DISH OUT MY SINCERE OPINION. HOW MUCH DOES THE GUY EARN?

I AM 100% SURE THAT MAY BE THE REASON FOR THE BREAK UP.
I ONCE INTRODUCED A GUY TO MY FRIEND AND HE ASKED ME HOW MUCH SHE EARNS AND I WAS LIKE I DON'T KNOW. AND HE SAID HE CANT DATE A GIRL NOT EARNING OVER 200K NOT TO TALK OF MARRYING HER. SO MEN OF THESE DAYS CONSIDER ALL ANGLES BUT FORGET THE FACT THAT THE EARNER TODAY MAY BE THE LOSER OR TOMORROW AND VICE VERSA. LOVE THESE DAYS IS OUT OF THE WINDOW IS MORE OF CONVINCE SHA lOVE EXIST FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WITHOUT SHALLOW MIND.....TO BE HONEST HOW MANY WOMEN TODAY WHO WOULD MARRY A GUY EARNING 85K IF THE TABLE WERE TURNED AROUND? ANOTHER FRIEND OF MINE IS SO PICKY OF MEN BECAUSE SHE WANTS A RICH MAN ,..... YOU THINK SAY RICH MAN GO WAN MARRY U WITH YA 85K? WE ALL NEED TO BE REALISTIC AND CALL A RAT A RAT AND NOT A BUUUSUUU. I AM A FEMINIST AND BELIEVE IN MAKING MY OWN MONEY. LIKE U EXPECT LINDA TO SETTLE FOR SOME 200K EARNER WHEN SHE IS ROLLING IN MILLIONS .... ABEGI BABE MOVE ON. MY EXPERIENCE LOOK FOR A HARD WORKER AND MARRY...U NEVER KNOW TOMORROW HE MAY BE ROLLING IN MILLIONS OF POUNDS LIKE MY BOOOOOO. FAITH IS THE KEY BABE. CATCH ME IF U CAN RUNNING AWAY.

well i Had a bobo who wanted me to do the spending when he had no job...i was glad to assist him ...with some change on loan bases ooo... now he goes behind me n cheats and refused to pay me i grabbed his gold chain necklace worth 5 times what he owes me ... and i kicked him good bye i dont respect me who like to take advantage. u know what he married a babe who forced herself on him and she has ended up being the bread winner of the family. she pays the rent , feeds the child and fuels his ride... what a joker. All he uses his cash to do is form one kin nonsense big boy in Abuja and treats his wife like dirt. well she asked for it. am happily married to a man that cares not about my earnings but i insist on contributing as necessary. So you see life helps you off a ditch but most times we want to fall into it desperately. SO BABES DUST AND MOVE ON.

My dear sister thank God that you did not end up with such a poverty minded man, women always make mistakes when it comes to marriage, you never sit back and actually ask your self some hard questions why a man really wants to marry you. Let me describe that man you were dating, very lazy and covetous, he is the type of man that covets other people's success and comfort, he is a man that will shy away from hard work and above all he is the type that wants the good life, there is a word called hedonism,it means pleasurable life style, that man wants the big cars, big houses, holidays abroad but is not ready to work hard for it.The woman he married I bet you he does not love at all, he only see her as a ticket to the revelry and parties, not the better life, My cousin went through similar nonsense, in that she married a man that was yet to finalize his divorce from his first wife. The first wife he left after she lost her job, my cousin he blackmailed and abandoned when she refused to change the name on her car to his name,he woke her up on the wedding night and was asking her how much she had in her bank account and if she had lands and businesses, in short he was just after her money, my dear thank God you did not end up with such a man, you will be surprised that he will be stealing from his wife and threatening her if he does not have his way with her money.

The guy is a low life.

But you wasted 3 years of your life mourning over such a freeloader.

Please go and do a thanks giving in a church, God saved you but you did not know.
