Today, I continue to examine the responses on how people make decisions about choosing a partner.
Based on the figures from those who responded, it is clear that the financial status of the possible spouse will play a significant role in helping one to choose a spouse. Notice that no one gave 1 for that criterion. The points given range from 2 to 5. Nearly half of those who responded gave 4 and 5 points. This gives the indication that the financial status of your spouse is important.
The results show that the financial status of the spouse's parents does not factor in for most Bark Di Trute responders when deciding on a spouse.
The question I would love you to respond to is, if you started out with a spouse who was doing well financially, would you leave that spouse when things become tight financially?
While this is not a scientific poll, it does give an indication as to what our Bark Di Trute supporters are looking for. What are you looking for? Add your comments below the blog.
Thanks to those who answered the questionnaire and continue to support Bark Di Trute.

Males will stick with the spouse come thick or thin but females will not 95% of them.
ReplyDeleteWhen the man doing good they all over you things go south they are out.
The men are the providers and protectors, there is nothing wrong with a woman looking for financial security. The question is: are the men also looking for a rich spouse? A gender breakdown of the data would be useful.
ReplyDeleteI remember when we had the FINSAC Commission of Enquiry, many of the businessmen who testified said that their spouses left them when they lost their businesses. As a woman, I find this disturbing, if not sad. When the man is down on his face, that's when she chooses to leave. I think it's selfish.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I have read that typically, when a wife is ill, she dies alone, especially if she is elderly. However, when the table is turn, the wife is more likely to stay and nurse her husband till the very end.
The reason why relationships are the way they are today is because we are too selfish and self-centered. There is a shallowness about what informs the quality and outcomes of our relationships. Women prioritise money and men prioritise looks. Few prioritise character. Many end up with sour relationships.
People who are entering into a long term relationship should consider your wise words.
