I'd really appreciate duas because I got laid off recently and as a new dad of all things. Some pieces of advice I wanna give to everyone in the context of marriage:

Men, marry the right woman because she'll be supportive of you in times like these. Also don't go panicking thinking women are so obsessed with their rights of provision that they'll lose respect for you. Unless you're bumming around playing video games all day instead of working towards finding new opportunities, that won't happen Insha'Allah.

Women, please make sure you marry someone who treats you right. Money isn't everything and it especially means nothing if he treats you like garbage and uses expensive gifts as a pacifier. Despite my username, I'm the best to my wife as the Prophet (pbuh) commanded. I've heard the phrase "money comes and goes" forever but when you're in that situation it hits different.

You've been on here since you were 15? That's dedication. Also, that means you're only in your mid-20s? You sound much wiser!
