Contest| "Love and Money!"

It feels good to be participating in this week's contest in this noble community that I belong to. I found the topic interesting, I mean it's something we youth and gen z generation can relate with and of course I have one or two things to share in line with the topic...so guys let's get into it right away.
🔻Have you ever been served a breakfast, I mean (heartbreak) or do you know anyone who has had a heartbreak. Share with us.
You know the first time I noticed the word breakfast trending among youth, I thought they were having a good time waking up early in the morning to have a good breakfast. Little did I know that what it meant was was heartbreak. It took me time before I realized though.
Back to the question, I've never been served breakfast and maybe it dues to the fact that I don't do relationship the way many of us youth do it today, like jumping from one fellow to another not minding if they share the same value and ideologies and the end result always turns out to be breakfast, they only want to enjoy the moment and move on.
So most of it can be seen as a relationship on chance without any form of commitment to see it work....and yes, I've heard of folks who were served hot breakfast, I don't have them in my circle though but some of them are just just distance folks I can't really call friends.
🔻Does genuine love without money exist? Explain
Well I think genuine love without money still exist. Sometimes I wonder where we got the concept that it's money that powers love. Don't get me wrong, money is very important in a relationship because with it you could fulfil certain dreams and fantasies you have even for your relationship but then, it's not all there's.

I've heard and seen folks who "fell in love" with each other not minding their financial state. They just love themselves regardless. It's along the line that the reality of money can then set in. But you know, it gets all sour when none of the parties involved refuse to take financial responsibility to make the relationship work.
Even after a relationship works and metamorphose into marriage, you will need money to get the home up and running. So there is a need to be financially capable, especially on the path of the man, who is the breadwinner of the home. So yes, there can be genuine love without money as the first priority.
🔻If you were given the opportunity to choose between money and love, which would you prefer? State your reasons
Omoh! I will choose Love, love is stronger than money, well I really do not know how to explain this. But come to think of it, when the money is no more, how do we reconcile the matter if one of the party went for money in the first place. Of course your guess is as good as mine, the home would suffer shipwreck...just because the foundation was built on money.
The reverse would be the case if love was the foundation. I see money as the icing on the cake, there should be a cake first before the icing on it. In my opinion, love should be the cake while money should be the icing. I believe it the reason while the sound of money seems pleasant and sweet to ears.

Where there is genuine love,temporal absence money would not be enough to tear them apart. Take note of the word "temporal" because the absence of money should be a temporal thing. It will actually be a total irresponsibility on both party if the absence of money persist. Everything gets so sour and boring and we can now say that the relationship didn't break as a result of the absence of money, but financial irresponsibility on the path of the parties involved.
🔻It is true that money answers to all things, in your own understanding, can money answer to love?
Hmmmm...love built on the premise of money and gift is only a disaster waiting to happen. If you bought love with money be very ready to sustain such deceitful love with money because the very day the money seems not to show forth like it has always been, there will be a whole lot of problem.

This is the reason why we have many broken relationships and home, many breakfast amongst so many young people because they placed the Cart before the horse. No one is saying money is bad and not needed in a relationship, what am saying is that it shouldn't be the very first thing to be used as yardstick of a lifetime journey such as marriage.
There is actually a relationship between love and money in a relationship but then such relationship must co-exist without one obstructing the other, the relationship between both terms should properly balanced such that non is overstressed at the detriment of the other.
Thanks you so much for your time, I hope you got value from this post. So just before I drop my pen, I would love to invite @josepha @radleking @rakiya to this contest. I hope they find it interesting enough to drop their thoughts as well.

It is good you don't do relationships the way many guys are doing instead of building themselves first. Bro, my advice to you is to focus on the bag 💰 (money) first, put God first, then when you have hit big, it is relationships that will find you. Thou it is good to be in a relationship, a relationship without money, is of no value to me, because I cannot bear to see someone in a relationship going through financial difficulties or asking me for help and I can't give to her. It is said that love is sweeter when Mony enters, which is true because nowadays girls want money, and not how far you care for them, well some ooh, and not all.
When the money is available, your girlfriend, or wife will be loyal to you, but if the money isn't there, then know that she can cheat on you, and by then you will understand what truly heartbreak is when you don't have the money.
Smiles....i.really understand your take on the subject. Money is indeed needed. I just hope we do not overstress the need for money above other things that makes relationships work. Thanks for dropping by again my friend. Your comment is as motivating as ever. Gracias.
Choose the one that you Love, but always seek God's direction first.
