Can I have s3x with a man that has paid my bride price but i've not married?: Debate ensues as lady queries

A heated debate has ensued following a young woman’s question of whether it was right for her to have sex with her man who has paid her bride price.

In a Facebook group, the young woman identified as Gladys Nwankwo shared that her man had already done the traditional rites of paying her bride price.

However, she was wondering if it was right for her to now engage in sexual intercourse with him after he had paid her bride price.

“Please is it right to have sex with a guy that has paid my bride price but have not wed,” she asked this question in the group chat.

In response to her query, a heated debate ensued between social media users as some argued that she need not deny the man his right because he had already done what was expected of him traditionally.

Others, however, stood on the opposite side as they stated that she has to wait because she was a Christian.

Reactions: He paid your bride price, it is not a sin

The lady’s question had many social media users instructing her on what to do regarding the issue. See some comments below;

@Mhiz Gift Chukwu: So far u have a plan for the white wedding u are adviced to wait,that is why it is holy matrimony,marriage is honourable but in all bed undefiled

@Aghogho Orakah: My dear let me just make it clear, the scriptural requirement is an agreement between ur family n his family, sealed by the payment of whatever ur father has asked ur husband to pay. In the fulfillment of this, Yahweh is pleased, whatever else u do in d name of solemnization na ur business. If this man has met the above stated requirement and hence owes nothing to ur father, pls delay no further, give him his due. Thank you.

@Elegantcrest David: Since both of you planned to do church wedding I will advice you to wait so that you don’t defile your bed. Both of you can hasten d date of the wedding to avoid fornication.

@Betolo Eshimitan: Yes u are married is not a sin, wedding is a borrowed culture and is a choice not by force or a law

@Thomas Okem: Give him front, back , left , right and center , even with extra on the chair , bathroom, even in the kitchen you people should scatter every where as e de hot 🥴

@Jake Shedrack: In the Bible once ur bride price is paid,to the woman’s family,it call marriage that thing you see in church is never in the Bible,it just to bless it in the front of people,ur pastor can’t never join ur marriage if ur parents has not collect ur bride or price…if I m ur husband by this time u will even taken,or u will go and meet ur pastor to do the wedding with you.. confused generation..
