It’s about showing your partner that you value her and care about her. You don’t have to break a bank for that.

Even if it is a little token gift, he should go out of his way to put a smile on his woman’s face. I am a self-supported woman and I earn as much as my guy. I don’t expect anyone to give me anything, but still, those small things count. Damilola Sowemimo I have heard of many stingy boyfriend scenarios and it is sad that these guys do exist in the 21st Century.

Anuoluwapo Adesegun Sometimes, it could be that he does not have and we assume that he does and thereby label him as stingy. The only way you should believe he has money but doesn’t want to share is when you see him spending it on new clothes, shoes, cars, gadgets for himself and gives you excuses when you demand something from him. If you don’t see any of these things, then, the problem isn’t that he’s stingy. Sarah Obidipe My ex-boyfriend was very stingy. He doesn’t buy me my necessities.

Men don’t like women who are constantly demanding for money. We don’t see them as a wife material but as side kicks. They should get jobs and earn their own money!
