Yoighaman:


That is how it's meant to be, helping and supporting one another but this world is no longer normal, abnormality everywhere.

It depends on the nature, perspective and belief of the person you are dealing with.

I lost a relationship many years ago because I asked her for assistance, business had not picked up as envisaged and I was in dire need of funds.

I usually wouldn't ask, maybe because of my ego but I let them down and asked, but she saw it as a 'red flag', she saw me as a potential pest and stylishly ended the relationship. She was abroad and perhaps might have thought all of us in Nigeria are baggages.

I felt very sad but then, life goes on. Am I a better person now? Hell YES!

Thank God I went through that temporary financial challenge, I would have married the wrong woman.

So, it all depends on the particular man or woman you are in a relationship with, there is no 'one size fits all' answer.
Your experience, though regrettable, doesn't show that she was/is a bad woman. She saw a pest in you (trust me most women dread having men that are pests). Thing is, she didn't trust you enough! I can't fault nor justify her actions because I am not abreast with the situation save your own side, but I think splitting was in the best interest of you both.

But did you tell her it was a repayable loan with specific date/period of repayment?

My woman is always ready to give me if I ask anytime any day but when returning it she's like 2500+2500= 41000 that's why I'm tired to borrow from her
This one is repayable loan... It's not bad.

Should a man ask for money from his girlfriend or wife

I actually ask for money from my girlfriend with my chest out and I don't feel ashamed... Even when I don't have money for meal, she pays for it without even abusing me ... When she needs money and I have, I don't hesitate to give her ... Actually we elevate by helping each other .....

I've been hearing from some women saying that "a man that asks for money from his girlfriend is a red flag".

Nairalanders, is that true



In this situation,it’s as delicate is riding bicycle without brake to Sabo junction.

Good woman,you no even need to ask.


Bad one ….. every time he is broke,am his only source of help …

Use the right word, "beg".

If they can beg you, you can beg them.


Begging is reciprocal.

Dependent men will come here crying for women to give them money. Yet they don't want dependent women. Shortly, they will talk about being men.

The hypocrisy of men is never surprising.

grin This thing is simple! I can give him if he is also a giver as single. As a married woman, you have all right giving your husband if he is broke, but if he is not a responsible man, he should be only entitled to her foods only not money.

No big deal in that, even a relationship where it is only one side that is giving is even a red flag to me. Both parties must learn to help each other, that the man does not ask does not mean he is not in need of something, that is where the understanding comes in.

If you ask with the view of paying back that's fine.

My girlfriend borrows me money when I'm broke. And I always ensure that I pay her back with small interest the moment I'm liquid.

On a general note, many a Nigeria ladies are very tight-fisted when it comes to freely given out their money to their supposed boyfriend or husband. And when they eventually give you their money they expect that you must pay back. They have been conditioned by our patriarchy system into believing that men are givers and not takers.

Relationship is a 2 way thing. The 2 people are meant to help each other.women asking men for money does not make them less a woman so why should it make a Man less a man?

in d olden days the woman belongs to the man and that includes all she owns/inherited. Hence he asks for demands/takes it.

Then, the man was the (literal) LORD of his wife.

Nowadays na 'partnership', hence d man *asking*/begging/borrowing from his wife.

Shior!
cool

Depends on the boyfriend and the circumstances but generally speaking I am of the opinion that in a loving relationship you help each other no matter what. I know many ladies who make way more money than their husbands and it's not a problem. It's only on NL that men pay all bills and can afford 3 wives and 5 concubines. grin

Depending on the type of man.



A man like my sponsor, who sends money on errands,never misappropriates

Then there is my neighbor who his wife gave money to buy 30 bags of cement so they can start building, he used it to gamble, bought drinks for friends.


There are some type of men that even when you try to be their support ,they end up dragging you down.

I agree 100% with you.... dragging you down and also insulting and threatening you on top of it...

The more reason what works for A will not work for B . Know the type of man you as a woman is married to , that lady A entrusted her husband with her project and he executed it doesn't mean your own case will be like that. I have seen men who used their wife's Money to womanize and flex instead of using it to plan for the family.

Yes, provided that it isn't resulting from self-centeredness, greed, complacency, and unambition - it's evil to project your need on her under any guise.
