Well well well... Seems Nigerian men are gonna have a field day on this one too, right?

The lady is not marriage material. I honestly would have concluded she isn't to blame but if the guy did all that, come onnnnn

J111333:
The dude is very very silly and doesn't deserve an understanding and mature lady like that so to hell with him.

The lady replying in that manner upon all the insults the idiot is dishing out shows a mature mind dating a grown fool with hairy balls in between his legs.

If she is not a professional hair stylist, this will be a different issue but the poor girl simply got paid for professional service rendered.

The entitlement mentality of Nigerians is so disgusting.

This is clearly a case of different perspectives (the debate that will come up on this thread will further reflect this) and I see it as something they could have easily discussed and agreed on how they'd rather have things be. As a dating couple, they learn more of each other everyday and they reform to better suit their expectations. This kind of issues are bound to come up and should be taken as an opportunity to further know what the expectations are. If I were the lady, I probably wouldn't collect money from my fiance's mother. That's me though (I wouldn't expect that from others cause friends and family could ruin business). Again, if were the mother, I'd insist she should collect her money especially if I plan to be coming there often cause I wouldn't want to appear as a burden. And finally, if I were the guy, I wouldn't send my mum to the shop with so much certainty that my girlfriend wouldn't take her money. If I wanted to ensure that, I'd tell her upfront. From the chat, I don't think that would have been a problem.

But the issue here is not the money but the poor communication between them. The girl might have collected the money not because she was bent on getting her pay but just that the thought of asking the woman to keep her money didn't cross her mind at that time. Again, if the guy's mum is rich, she might have even felt it was respectful taking the money from her and saying "thank ma" while slightly kneeling just to show she acknowledges and appreciates her support for her business. On the other hand, the guy's discontent is very valid as well. Not only because he's done so much for the girl but because he would have even felt embarrassed when his mum told him that she paid. It's sad that the girl didn't think it through or even saw it that way but we all must agree that they need to learn some communication skills. The guy typed with so much emotions and the name calling came faster than Tonto Dike's ex husband. If this is how he would react each time they have an issue as a couple, then there's a big problem. The lady seemed more put together in my opinion but she should have known when to de-escalate the issue seeing how emotionally charged the discussion was but she kept stretching it.

Communication is indeed everything.

To the contrary, the lady did nothing wrong. She accepted payment for her services irrespective of who's involved. I see nothing wrong in it.

Businesses thrives when family and friends pay for the goods/services they receive.

Dont be a dingbat. Think first and clearly too.

There is an extent of compromising especially when two persons are in a relationship.

The man has stood by her to a point where she claims she pays her bills. He even sold his product at cost price to her brother, why didnt he say "business thrives when friends and relative pays for service rendered"?

Be a fair judge.
