No relationship can ride on smoothly without money.

Although relationships are not meant to solely be about money or the level of one's success in life, but it is near impossible to love in this age without having to spend money.

Irrespective of one's gender, you still need to spend money in your relationship. Love, even in its purest, truest and most genuine form relies deeply on sharing, gifting and spending quality time on dates among other things. And there is no way you are going to do these without spending.

About three decades ago, when a couple is out on a date, a waiter would take the bill straight to the man. But lately, the bill is placed in the middle of them both. The discourse about money and relationships is shifting gradually. More attention is now being focussed on women and how they also need to chip in more regularly and spend money on men, too.

This conversation is largely triggered by the increasing commonness of transactional relationships and the need to checkemate or if possible phase such relationships out completely.

However, even with the increasing occurrence of these businesslike relationships, it should still not be an excuse stopping you as a man from spending on your woman. Neither should it excuse you as a woman from spending on your man. And you must do it gladly and happily without being pushed to.

WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER GO INTO A RELATIONSHIP YOU CANNOT AFFORD

why go into a relationship when you are broke when you can invest that energy and time into somthing productive. relationships nowadays have little or nothing to offer after a long run.self development is key. develop yourself and watch things fall in place so that at the end of the day you do not graduate from being broke to being poor.

Yes o, yes, I agree

Why not focus on hustling and leave love for now.

In DUNCAN MIGHTYS VOICE:
Only fakers be loving when you have
When e red then Tuwama, when e red

My brother, there's no free ride even in FREETOWN, hustle hard for the sake of your own comfort and sanity not because of one leech
