I mean, before you can take a typical Naija babe shopping, you must sit down and give it a serious thought.
Because by the time you're through, your account must be shaken to the roots!
She wants brazillian hair, she wants to change her wardrobe, she wants the latest gadgets, she wants to eat out; everything on you @ the same time. She will want everything at the same time!
And you can't even ask her to bring part of the money; you'll seem like an alien from mars. In some other parts of the world, ladies take care of part of the bills, why is it impossible here in Nigeria?

its not a must to spend.

Nothing stops you from saying No though

Absolutely nothing wrong in owning up to the fact that you simply can't afford it.

You should never do things that you aren't comfortable with

Yes some Nigerian girls have the spirit of entitlement embedded in them but that doesn't stop you from losing control of your basic common sense

If u knw u aint equal to d task,y asking her out in d first place?

NAija babes turning us to ATM since the days of
KING DAVID

I don't want any...

i just want true love and happiness

Don't you think she had get use to that threat if i gave in the first time it was made?
Fact is, someone staying with you just because of what they can get is obviously not with you for the right reasons. You are better off without them

How can you take someone shopping and ask her to bring part of the money?

Merlissa:

ehen u contribute ur money i contribute my own then together we go go one bend down boutique and i go buy high heel shoe with fine pant and bra for u

You mean you can take a lady shopping and tell her to bring some of the money?? Seriously?? Where you see that one?
If you ain't up to the task, then leave shopping out. You can buy things for her on your own
Abi dem force you?

Its possible
Most times, d girl will even volunteer to take part of the bill.

Why'd I take her shopping in the first place if I don't have the money?.


B4 I shop with a lady, I must have studied her enough.

Yes its quite possible and it happens
In d western world girls split shopping expenses with their guys. But its a taboo here, just like you sound surprised to hear it.

Merlissa:



Awwww.. oya nah

wait ooo.. Its not just "oya nah" . does your papa/uncle have any political affiliation. Are you financially buoyant? And do you live in a nice house?

The situation is a very complicated one. They guy is not used to suffering.

Did u even read d post bro?
Its not as if u don't have d money
Does d fact dat u have d money mean dat u must empty ur account to take a girl shopping? Why shud d shopping be like an opportunity for her to get everything she has ever needed in her life?

Baby girl, a guy taking u shopping is not a license to rip him off
. U must not get all you've ever wanted to get from dat single shopping. That's why it seems dat Nigerian guys aren't romantic. Our ladies don't know how to consider their guys, knowing that money is not easy to get. U know a guy can go out of his way atimes to impress a lady even spending his last kobo, but u as a lady shud show dat you're not materialistic by controlling what you pick. The guy will be very happy and will love u for it.

Chammypresh1:

don't talk about that, its u ladies that's got the issue, u always wan drain guys up or spend like u aint got a heart.

@LaurelP When the shopping is getting out of hand can't you call her aside and tell her your budget? Besides if its a relationship your babe should know what you can afford many babes will ask you the budget if they are not out to rip you off unless the man has presented himself as a big time millionaire if not why can't you just tell your babe what you can afford? after all its your pocket and your money and if she can't respect what you can afford then you already know the kind of woman in front of you.

Bros, I can't displease myself to please anybody.

I would say "No" and mean it if she pick what I cannot pay for.


And Like I said earlier, I must study her well enough b4 taking her shopping.
