My Man Insists On 50/50 Provisions In Marriage! - Living In Diaspora Marriage Crisis 🇬🇧

[@menvicstudio]

It's amazing what people come up with. From my observation, couples who bicker about house chores and who does what at home are usually couples engaged in this transactional percentage marriage.

[@ChySpace]

Couples that married for benefits lol

[@manifydesigns]

It's better for a woman to support her household however she wants to without being told about the percentage.

[@ChySpace]

That's just it for me

[@amakajosephat5875]

Your points are so valid and i am glad you referenced what the bible said on that.Thank you.

[@ChySpace]

Thanks Amaka

[@treasurekitchen]

Hahaha they ask for 50/50 but won't take other responsibilities that come with it. God help them🙏😊

[@ChySpace]

Exactly

[@CourseRepsCorner100]

Thanks for sharing 👍

[@Chiinternational-t1g]

Is not easy! If it is 50/50, you cook today I cook tomorrow 😂

[@ChySpace]

Lol 😆

[@debbytom1947]

If a man wants 50/50 then it should be all round even home keeping and house chores

[@ChySpace]

Gbam!

[@mandyfrizz]

Imagine doing 50/50 and when it’s time to take care of the kids, it’s no 50/50. The double standards for me

[@ChySpace]

I tell you

[@obiflex]

50/50 should be the point of departure in modern marriages but ultimately, each party in a marriage should give to the their best of their abilities, that's how we came about the husband being the primary provider in all cultures. So if a woman is a stay at home mom who earns 5 times more than her husband as a KZbinr, while her husband is works 10 hours, 6 days a week, she ought to take care of the kids and still be the primary provider in that scenerio. Give everything you can, no holding back

[@OmaaOnyia]

The truth is that 50/50 can never work with a couple that intends to have kids and I don't know how else to say it for people especially some men to understand. Making kids alone is a heavy work that affects a woman in multiple ways and have the ability to even kpai the woman. I pray that most couples start heading towards complimenting each other in marriage and stop comparing their lives with other people

[@ChySpace]

I'm sure most of these problems arise from comparisons

[@chiomaonuoha7723]

Where did all these percentages come from? A good marriage is 100/100. Both parties should bring their A game into it. In all your marrying, marry a kind person…

[@ChySpace]

You're right, Chioma. Modern people bringing in some unnecessary concepts

[@chidimmamarvel7450]

Hmmm. 50/50 is better than requesting for one's payslip. 😂😂😂

[@ChySpace]

Lol 😆

[@philsbeauty]

Any man that demands 50/50 from a woman simply don't care about that her.

[@ChySpace]

Loud it

[@Nellysville1]

I'll simply tell am say, oga biko God has made you head please remain were Almighty don keep you 😅😅😅😅

[@ChySpace]

Hahahaha you're the neck lol

[@NurseJuliaEzeji]

Sharing bills is not an issues but some men present it in a terrible way which is not in our culture. Terrible situation. God will help we singles, because this marriage issues I see online is making me scared. 😢

[@ChySpace]

You're very correct my sister. The manner of approach matters a lot

[@chidimmamarvel7450]

Good evening, sis. I will like to speak with you.

[@ChySpace]

Ok. @Chinyere Ojike is my Instagram handle sis. You can leave me a voicenote please

[@Theksquadfamily5]

Which one is 50/50 again, taking care of the kids should also be 50/50 ooooo

[@ChySpace]

Lol 😆 🤣

[@amakajosephat5875]

hmmm 50/50? now that dosen't ,make sense Exactly it feels more like now a contract.. What would have made sense will be him giving her some things to take care of bill wise not doing 50/50

[@ChySpace]

Oh yes. A man should be the head they claimed to be

[@CourseRepsCorner100]

But what if the lady earns more than the man which is more obtainable and the man still shoulder it all or ask for that 50/50

[@ChySpace]

A woman can choose to support his home financially. The Bible said she's a help maid

[@menvicstudio]

I have a different take on the whole married couple finance. I believe all the money that comes into the home belongs to both party. But for this to work, the marriage needs to have the right foundation. Especially for the women, open your eyes very well and ensure you do not marry a lazy man who is comfortable to eat off you. I love Ramit Sethi's take on couple finance. If you want to progress far as a couple, there can't be my money and his money. Both party need to decide how much each keeps for their personal upkeep/investment (in the case of UK ISA) from their salary but beyond that, the rest of the money goes towards bills and joint investment for the family.

@menvicstudio Very helpful tips Mevic

[@ajibolaoluwatayo9632]

@@menvicstudio of all the comments I have read so far, yours is the most sensible and mature with a high level of realism. 👍👍

[@CourseRepsCorner100]

Though I don't support that but something prompted that

[@ChySpace]

Ok oh
