I also feel sorry for the lady but life goes on. If she called off the wedding, life goes on.
But I want to ask a question. The lady only called off the wedding and continue with the man or she also broke up with the man? The finance may not be a gambler but just want to try his luck, but that is stupidity.
I have seen something like this before but I did not know who contributed the money. Men like some risky. Some of them were lucky but some were not lucky.
I believe the relationship may continue and what they mean by calling off the wedding may be to postpone the wedding till further notice until they can save up another money, but to me, the ladies were not wise to have held such cash, in a country that the currency is so weak and inflation is rising steadily, if anyone in her condition is wise is to always use any money that comes into the hand to buy the wedding materials pay for event centres ahead and do a whole lot that will make the money not to be physically available before any temptation like this will even happen.
The guy really messed up, he lack value for money and had a wrong mentality about gambling, but then he did the wrong and at that, we have to move on regardless, but I feel for that lady she should be very disappointed right now.
Very thoughtful, and i also did think about this as well, but in all honestly, we can't really blame the lady, we all as human beings think differently, there are people who just love starting something all at once after having spent years saving for it, it's just like a friend of mine over here who said he would not start building his own house until he has managed to save up to 10 million naira in his account, and i have on several occasions advised him to start with whatever amount of money he has at hand, but he is still adamant about it.
So, there are people like that, not the lady's fault if you ask me, the man as well should have allowed the lady to keep the money if he knew that he would do such a thing, it's really heart recking and i can't just imagine the kind of trauma this act will through the lady into, for these days, it's kind of hard to find such ladies who trust their boyfriend good enough to save money with him, it's very rare, but all the same, i just hope she gets over it regardless of whether she continue with the man or not.
