Pitting the 'two types of girls' against each other is where she went wrong with her message though, people may overlook the message and focus on her trying to make it a competition
"Pitting", wrong? Really? If a woman came and said "there are two types of men, the ones that hit and the ones that don't", would you consider that wrong?

The bottom line is one set are desirable, the other set aren't. Whether feelings are hurt in the process is quite moot. Would you want your sons marrying inconsiderate wives?

I think the message is clear. "There are considerate and inconsiderate women. Find yourself a considerate woman".

Some of you just want to argue in favour of the girl 'cause she did something most of you would term as that cliché "Wife material" 'cause the average Nigerian guy is broke and wouldn't want to incure expenses on himself which is understandable. grin You and I know the nature of cakes that constitutes a birthday cake so let's quit debating on something most of you will never see lights in 'cause I could as well buy a 1k cake from an eatery and use as a birthday cake. It's not by force to celebrate birthdays if you don't have what it takes.

Let me assume she takes 5K for a cake but the question would be, what kind of cake could she buy?. You've kept hammering on some cakes sold in eateries for such amount without taking into consideration the occasion she needs the cake for. No one now would bake a good cake for 5k. How much is a rubber of flour, sugar, butter, create of eggs, gas, etc, and one's gain for baking that someone would take such an amount to give you something befitting?. In case you missed, I equally said prices depends on location 'cause where I am, you can't get a caterer bake a 5K cake. Where she was more stupid was telling the guy to save the 5k for her bride price though it was sarcastically stated but returning such amounts to him won't make him marry her.
It's okay to not know everything. It's also okay to know that an eatery like Sweet Sensation can bake a better cake than you for less the price than you would. It's called cost efficiency. I have bought and eaten SS cake on quite a number of occasions, I haven't eaten yours. SS cake seemed okay to buy and eat, all we have about your cake is claims. Claims do not equal experience.

Maybe you should enter the cake baking business and stay afloat for a few years then you can become an authority on the cost and quality of cake. Till then, you're just an internet nobody arguing out of point.

A cake of 3k can be shared among ten persons . Isn't that enough for a low key birthday celebration?
No, they must buy cake as wide as a dining table. They must belleful with cake. grin. Dessert o. grin grin. Nigeria is just a big entertainment source. You can't just have a piece of cake. Each person must eat a bowl of cake. grin grin grin

They are vampires who are out to eat as much as they can at any time that they can. A woman who is conscientious in spending her man's money is a traitor to this avaricious group of vultures.

A quick word, though; the lady in this story may well be pretending, but anybody who faults her line of action on the face of it is someone any sane man would be wise to be wary of. grin grin

Benita27:
If 10k translates to spending so much on something as trivial as a birthday then she could have as well rejected taking money from him. Abi, she can't buy a cake for herself?. If such an amount is termed "Mindless" to you then I really wonder what you'd consider "Mindful". grin Point made, let's quit going back and forth.
Who are you to tell her how much is too much for a cake? Can you not perceive the irony of your conceit? You sound pissed that she considers 10k too much for cake. Why are you pissed? Is it your birthday? Is it your boyfriend? Is it your money? If she doesn't want to reject her boyfriend's money but is considerate enough to be thrifty, who are we to judge her?

Mindlessness is relative. If she feels 10k is mindless, then it is. She knows her boyfriend's financial standing. You don't. She can get a good cake for half the price and she chose to do that. Case closed. End of story. She has done nothing wrong. In fact, she has done right.

Now, we can stop going back and forth. kiss

It's a birthday cake so you can't just presume she's going to have it with herself and boyfriend if indeed she intended celebrating it like people do. I didn't say the dude ought to have given her 50k or more for the cake, but the fact that the girl thinks 10k is too much for a cake and had to return 5k. The funniest part of the story is that someone thinks she's indirectly saving bride price.
I can just presume because I have had birthdays with cakes which I shared with no more than three to four people. I see people do it around me so much. It is a very legitimate, common happening.

If the girl who is celebrating thinks 10k is too much to spend on a cake, I beg, who are you to state otherwise, Minister of Birthday Cake Affairs?

Don't be so literal. She obviously meant that her boyfriend shouldn't spend so much on something not so important. There are minimalists in this world, maybe this girl is one of them. Not everybody spends money mindlessly because it appears to be available. Some people feel they should spend responsibly.

5K, 3k cakes are cakes one would have to eat with two or three persons. I could even get a cake of N100 from any store.
As far as we know, just the subjects in this story would eat the cake. They didn't need to buy more cake than was necessary.

Price goes with quality.
She should have asked for an extra 10k then, just to be on the right side of quality?
RomanceRe: Be A Valuable Lady by Belafonte(m):
Benita27:
Let's be realistic here before sounding like people living in a world of fantasy.

Prices of cakes depends largely on location and shop. A 10k birthday cake is very small with probably a simple butter icing or just her name written on it with less design. With 5k, she can't get a cake so let me assume she may end up adding her money to it or not baking a cake at all which boils down to the girl's preference.

She's not saving bride price 'cause she returned 5k back 'cause all I care is; he may end up paying for another woman's bride price while you were busy pretending to be a wife material.
Why do you have to lie? Off the top of my head, I can boldly say Sweet Sensation sells cake worth 5k. Even Shop rite dey sell cake of 3k. Sweet, fluffy cakes o, not those ones wey hard like buns.


MissWrite:
Lol! Actually what she did is use 5k to send him a message (just in case he hasn't been thinking along those lines). And if he doesn't get it, he'll still use the 5k and open account with another girl. Two for the price of one. undecided
Yeah, because he only has 10k to his name. He has no other money to open account with another girl. Thank God his babe refunded 5k, after spending it he'll go begging or die of starvation.

Y'all just think most girls are used up before they get to age 24 or they've had shitty lifestyles...It's a bunch of crap

Every man knows the quality he's looking for in a woman regardless of her age

Times have changed and relationship trends are changing as well

If a woman says she wants to go for a financially stable man now...You will tag her a gold digger and a lazy woman but you are saying it's good to marry a woman at that age because she will be financially dependent on her man...It's only domineering men that think this way

And some women even look better as they age...Don't even think they lose value with age...It all depends on the individual

It is people like you that make females rush into marriage because y'all make so much emphasis on a woman's biological clock simply because you see her as a sex object or simply because you want to spite her
Stop mingling with small-minded men who "aren't looking for a liability". The best kind of man is the one who is willing to work as hard as he can to support a SAHM. kiss

Ladies within that age range are not bad just that you shouldn't expect much from them. It's very risky to invest so much in them (emotionally, materially and financially) because they can mess you up at anytime

if a man becomes the "financial saviour" of a lady, marrying such a guy will seem like returning the favour...
Reality check, you are already a "financial saviour" when you want to marry a woman. How many women do you know that will marry a man they earn more than? Even if they do, the resentment isn't far off. Marrying a woman with a better financial standing than you isn't very wise or very safe. Women marry up. Let every kobo you have count towards your respect and authority.
