I was shocked when a guy told me the lady he asked out asked him how much he would be giving her monthly. I asked him if they were having some sort of business arrangement or she is selling something or maybe he took a loan and he scheduled how much he would be paying monthly because I don't understand. Guys, I am not ashamed to say this just as I have advised ladies in a previous article too, run.

If she proves all she is about is money or what she can get without showing any interest in loving you, knowing you or even giving her time to you then it's not worth it because it shows her loyalty would change with someone who offers more and this is a needless competition you don't have to get yourself involved with.

I admire ladies who hold their own...who won't even need to ask because any right-thinking guy should know how to give and when to give without being asked but when she makes it a prerequisite for dating her, please run and don't look back. She is simply telling you she can be bought and you don't need someone who can be bought because it shows her loyalty would be questioned and she cannot be relied upon.

She is a sucker, someone that thinks only about herself because if she wants to build with you, she would tell you how to properly channel the resources to put it into good use. I am not saying she is going to be wrong to receive from you when you give, no, she has every right to receive from you when you offer and vice versa but it's not something she must place a demand on, thinking because she is dating you, it is your responsibility to fend for her.

I have heard some ladies say shocking things and I questioned their upbringing, even their exposure. I was worried as to the things they have been exposed to that messed them up this bad. Some ladies would expect you to be the one to buy everything they need even to their private wear as though you are their daddy. I always advise men never to play the role of husbands when they are still boyfriends and the same goes for ladies, stop playing the role of a wife when you are still a girlfriend. This is why most people feel so broken when things didn't work out because they have made things difficult for themselves.

We need to do better as humans and stop reducing our value to just money. A lot of people have failed to reach their heights because they have given out a failed perception of themselves. The take home for today is, offer value. Don't depend on what others can give but what you can get for yourself by offering something of worth. When you meet those who don't appreciate you and want to rip you off, run.
