    I’ve been on dates where i offer to pay and the women are really surprised or offer a couple times to split and I’m like nah. I do it to look good, not cuz i feel like i have to. However if we’ve been on a few dates then ya we can split no prob. Or like i get dinner, they get drinks/dessert later on in the evening

    I’m also glad it’s tru that most women don’t wanna be paid for/‘taken care of’ irl

    You think all she does for you is worth paying all her bills and expenses? At a certain point hiring a maid might be cheaper

    Lmao I mean it's not like she costs me too much more than I'd be having to pay anyway. But absolutely I agree that's what I'm saying I'd almost rather not having all that catering and just get help, nigga drowning in finances

    nothing wrong with provider mentality

  • Apr 14, 2021

    This such a heterosexual conversation

    Both people in a relationship need to provide, s*** is reciprocal
    This is coming from an 18 year old with little life experience but yea

    Damn you need to come clean to her about your situation if you haven't already. Your partner is to supposed to help and support you especially when you struggling so if she doesn't want to do anything to help then she's not the one bro.

    "The truth is the hardest part about dating in today’s world imo is actually learning what side of the spectrum the other person is in of this conversation"

    great thought @op

    I don’t see how this would be hard to find out a couple of dates in max

    & that’s part of the point of dating so idk if it’s really that hard

    Just ask if they got career aspirations lol.

    For example, one of the last women I talked to said she wasn’t interested in being a ‘career woman’ when I asked about her work and I took that as an easy early sign to dip

    Yeah I’m not taking life advice from mr finger her in public at a park

    the provider mentality means half of all people should have no money at all that would make sense

    I dont even want my parents to pay for s*** lol

    No idea how so many women still have this mindset but oh well

    Cause they some lazy bums

    The Game not even wrong bruh but all I want is a girl I can come home to and love while she makes me some fire food, call me traditional but I like that type life and I’ll give that woman all my love and money

  • Apr 14, 2021

    She can get her own money but it’s not required of her, Imma still take care of her regardless

    Don't think I want a girl who isn't ambitious and a self-starter, tbh.

    Man that self starter mentality so dumb I swear everyone gets some help from somewhere whether that be their family or friends or investors. Especially if it's a business. Yeah you could be a self starter employee and move up to higher positions though

    You're taking what I'm saying out of context. I'm talking about being a self-starter as in having intrinsic motivation to follow through on your goals w/o needing to be pushed or dragged along. I'm not saying go at everything alone or w/o help.

    Ohhh ok I thought you were saying it in that "pull up your bootstraps" kind of way

    I don't mind being the provider but she has to be down to do the same incase some financial issues occur.

    Imagine being tight on money and then asking your girl if she could get a part time job or cut down on spending to help but then she tells you that's not her responsibility and says you need to get a second job if it's that bad

    That b**** don't love you if she thinks like that. Both people need to be able to fulfill either role imo.

    This actually happened to my uncle and his wife.

    They’ve been together for like 30 years, have 7 kids. He used to be a d*** dealer for a while but went straight and has legitimate businesses. They basically live in a mansión. She has never had to get a job.

    Some s*** that wasn’t his fault happened nearly tanked his business and all while he struggled she refused to work.

    He straight up told me and my mom she ain’t the right one and if they divorce he knows all the kids gon side with him

  • Apr 15, 2021

    If I HAD it like that I wouldn’t care. But we ain’t getting married and we ain’t having babies.

    Nothing that’s gonna permanently f*** up my bag

    I appreciate you saying "I do it to look good" and not trying to be the masculinity police. niggas acting like they do that s*** just for fun

    he should've thought about that before he got her pregnant the first time, let alone 7th

    the problem with making money and being successful is that it attracts the wrong kind of people. most ppl will treat you nicely and stick around bc they see an opportunity to live off you

    Looking under the comments of this and many other threads on twitter is some of the scariest things i have truly read with how people perceive relationships and marriage. The truth is the hardest part about dating in today’s world imo is actually learning what side of the spectrum the other person is in of this conversation

    There’s women who want to be provided for 100% and expect to be maintained completely cause they will serve men with other things like they want to be seen as less

    Then there’s men who believe they need to provide and control every aspect to be a “real man” and those usually being the ones with weird ego issues

    I feel like it affects the black community in such a bad way when we are already fighting an uphill battle of inequality and classism yet, many are okay with making relationships unequal and sticking with a way of life that fulfills patriarchal roles and that existed when women couldn’t vote, hold jobs and looked at as house objects

    write a book about it

    also i like your jodeci pfp

    Facts. You ever see a white guy brag about paying his girl’s bills. The thought is almost comedic.
