My boyfriend always tells me he made a decision on our first date that he is going love me and be with me before having like deep feelings for me because he wanted to love and I never used understand until I learned about conscious intentional love.
@mwandie_ngcobo I don't understand how going 50/50 with someone you are trying to build with is a problem? Some women expect too much from a man. How will he grow if he dates a liability? Life is expensive to be living with someone who does not contribute.

We can all say a lot about Londie’s story and why she didn’t think about saving & all but we are also not speaking about how calculative rich men are,how they can give enough to get by but not have your own because they still need you to be dependent on them..
This is exactly why we warn y'all about depending on men financially because once they are done with you, their cruelty knows no bounds. They will go out if their way to hurt and humiliate you, even at the expense of their kids
