Is It Wise To Marry A Female Lawyer?

Chuks is currently in a relationship with this female lawyer. Whom he has dated for some years now. However, he is very confused as to whether to move the relationship to a higher level but finds it difficult to move on because of her overbearing attitudes.

Below are people’s opinions in respect of his dilemma.

BELLO: you must stand your ground on certain issues without shifting, as they are very domineering, and love to be in control, most importantly you need to work hard my friend in terms of income, make sure u are independent of your own, by that you remain in charge, that doesn’t mean they’ll leave you when things are rough, they hate divorce, so you have a joker card in your bag , Besides all these, believe me they can be loving, most especially if she’s God-fearing.

Kay: Her professional has nothing to do with marriage, what matters is love, does she love you, do you love as well, if the answer is yes, please don’t be afraid, provided she respects you, which is main thing.
BaBaMike said: Some people may not like to marry a female Lawyer because Many of them are very money orientated.and Very dangerous when you marry one and you get divorced,they might levy law against you. forget any chance of a fair legal settlement. Businessman Men can’t accept strong women, They are scared of them.LOL

Daroz: I don’t understand what you guys are ranting about. My girlfriend is a very young & intelligent lawyer and we have been dating seriously for the past one year. In fact I recently just proposed to her, so we will be getting married later this year. However, despite we have had some few minor misunderstanding in the past, non is linked to her training or mindset as a lawyer. She still act and behave like every other normal girl. She acknowledges and respects me as her man, and only reacts whenever she ought to. Nothing different from the normal thing, especially when the man is not uneducated too. Poster no fear, everything depends on her home training. Don’t listen to people. If you love her, and you see she has good character as a girl, marry her. Its even a thing of pride for you.

Dipwater: The reason is because you have doubt in your mind. My brother woman na woman once she starts earning big , with time her character will change. If you trully love her you shuld go ahead but don’t be intimidated by her profession as a lawyer. You shuld be able to put her in Her place as a man . If you think she is wiser than you my brother don’t even give it a trial because she will turn you to her houseboy.

Godtomam:It is not ideal to base the decision to marry on profession. where is God? Where is love? We like the easy road. We do not want trouble.The truth is you cannot run away from trouble in this life, but with the help of God and prayer, we can always control troublesome situations. If it is the will of God for your life, and you have prayed and sought the face of God, and you are convinced she is your wife, then go ahead and marry her. Definitely, you will encounter problems but the three cords, you, your female lawyer, and God cannot be easily broken. I wish you the best in life. God bless you. God2man.

ROCKJ1: Female lawyers are usually bad wives… I observed this with 3 of my friends that married lawyers…. They are regretting and lamenting now. No peace and too much arguments.

Okey: Hmmmmm I was in the same shoes years back, though i regretted my action and move on with my life but i have to tell you the truth base on my own experienced. profession doesn’t count when you meet a good nice and responsible lady only our incompetent and inferiority complex always make us feel unsecured. Ladies are ladies even if you meet a devoted person, doesn’t means she will be perfect either, your ability to endure the ups and downs aspect of relationships, is what will determine how real is the love in your heart. So if you love her and the chemistry seems to be good with her go for her. May God help you.

John: There is no problem per se with a female lawyer, but a “practicing” female lawyer is where there is an issue. I would advice you ask male lawyers how safe it is. Their respose may shock you. Law is about fighting and if you are ready for a woman whose job is to fight, then be my guest. But let nobody be naive about this. It is not safe.

Shola: Most lawyers often see themselves as sort of special breeds, even if their shoes have worn out and their suit washed from black to sun tanned brown! They re loud mouthed, boastful, egocentric and see every other non lawyers are semi literates or completely “unlearned”. But this attributes seem nothing compared to the agony of living with a female Nigerian practicing lawyer as a wife, it seems in most cases compared to only the agony of living in hell for eternity. A family friend was sent to his early grave in his late 40s because his lawyer wife gave him hell and he succumbed to stroke and died. He was a perfect gentle man! My bossom childhood friend is passing through a trauma of a marriage with his lawyer wife currently. He is now the shadow of a friend I grew up with! I have heard of several other bitter tales from unlucky men who married from the high percentage of insurbordinate, obstinate, domineering, complex and irritable league of lawyers. Wonder why most of them remain unmarried!!! This has forced me to ask the above rhetoric, IS Marriage to a female lawyer always a first class ticket to a hell of a marriage! Guys what are your views!!!.

Gaji: I think their profession gets to their head.

This is just people’s opinion ……. Doesn’t reflect the real life of a female lawyer.

If you think female lawyers are too dangerous to marry, why don’t you try the professional full house wife and see which one sends you to your premature grave faster among the two. Female lawyers are not that bad, all you need to learn is how to beat them at their own game.
