Should I leave my broke boyfriend?

I am a 24-year-old Forth Year student at a local university and I have been dating my boyfriend for the last two years. We are very much in love with each other and the two years have been the best in my life. However, I met a charming man in his late 20s during an event that involved campus students and some organisation. We were instantly attracted to each other and we have gone for two dates. Something tells me this is the man of my dreams. Unlike my campus boyfriend who is always broke, this guy takes me to nice places, is very kind and adores me. Is it possible to be in love with two people? What should I do?

Your Say 

Hey Beatrice, not all that glitters is gold. What you see and feel for this man is fantasy and passion but not love. Two dates with fantasy can make you lose a life full of satisfaction and love. Get to know true love my sister and you will love the one who has been with you through the good and bad times.

Real love doesn’t revolve around money. Before you start feeling like you are in your comfort zone, you must know that money is the start of evil things. You don’t love this man; you are only attracted to his money. Stop comparing these two people — remember being involved with two men at the same time amounts to cheating. Better the devil you know than the angel you don’t know.

Hey Beatrice, style up! You may find him kind, adore him and have even concluded he is the man of your dreams. Be careful or else you will soon regret. Real love is not all about money. How can you be in love with two people yet you confess you have found your Mr Right? Do what you think is right that you will never regret.

 You either stick with the broke chap and build your love, family and wealth afterwards or take the moneyed guy and be ready for a dead end sooner or later. It seems your dilemma revolves around money not  true love.

The older man is just a crush and you probably don’t know much about him. As for your boyfriend, you know him better even though he may not have much currently. It is better to choose the person who understands than an older stranger who may easily take advantage of you. Do not look at the financial position of the other man because your boyfriend has the potential to be successful.

True love is not about what you see in the other person — it’s all about what you feel in your heart. The fact that you have mentioned your campus boyfriend as ‘always broke’ is a clear indication that you went for the looks and not what he has. All the same, whatever decisions you make, always follow your heart girl!

Beatrice, let it not be that you are just materialistic. The man might exploit you sexually because he is using money to buy you. You better be faithful because I believe you will one day rise with your broke campus boyfriend.

Be honest with yourself and realise that what you feel about the new man is not love. What you love is the fact that he has money. You cannot love two men. I think the person you truly love is the campus guy. Stop cheating on him.
