Hi guys and ladies, here comes a very sad and heart-breaking story (true life confession) of a young lady who was contributing money (saving money) together with her husband-to-be (fiancée) in preparation for their wedding. The story in quote ..
My fiancee and I have been making arrangements for wedding, we are both contributing (saving) money because i know about his financial condition, in fact, i will say that i have contributed to about 60% of the total money in our savings, just for him to use nearly all the 5 million naira (approximately $5000) we saved to play betting and when i asked him about it, he said he was trying not to put all the wedding burden on me, that he thought he would be able to double the money.
I am really speechless and confused, and i think it's best for me to call the wedding off, what will i even tell people that already know about our wedding plans? this is the most disgraceful thing that has ever happened to me.
Even though i don't know this young lady in question personally, i felt true pity for her after coming across and reading her confession, i know how important weddings are to women and for the fact that she herself joined the man in saving, and even contributed about 60% of the entire funds they managed to save, shows or showed how committed she was to see that their wedding takes place, but unfortunately, the man gambled the money away, what could be more heart breaking than this?
This is unfortunate situation that can befall anyone, this is the height of what excesive gambling can do to anyone, just imagine how the was carried away by greed and deceit, how will a right thinking person use fund set aside for such important and remarkable event to gambling, this kind of risk is too much, i Believe that this story will make some people be it man or woman not to save with their fiance for wedding purposes again, even if anyone has plan of contributing for marriage purposes, it will now be an individual thing, gambling addiction is a disaster that we should always avoid at all time because once is involved it takes the grace of God to curtaile such situation, just imagine how committed this lady was to make sure their wedding becomes a successful one but the husband to be, ruined everything because of uncontrollable desire for unrealistic things.
This is the worst irresponsible gambling I have ever heard of, in as much I have said it that the man was irresponsible im his act, I think they would have planed a liitle event earlier may be such would have saved them from this menace but that's in the past now, people should learn to plan with the available, know one is in competition with you, unless you choose to be with one, you must not do what others do because you dont know their source of income, dont ruine your reputation because competition, although we dont know what triggered this man to behave like this, be it as it may, whatever triggered him to do this, is a sign of irresponsibility
