A Nigerian man has taken to social media to accuse a lady of attempting to use him for financial support, after she requested money for various items ahead of their first meeting.
The man shared his experience in a post on X (formerly Twitter), which quickly gained attention.
In the post, the man attached a screenshot of the text conversation he had with the woman.
In the chat, she listed several items she wanted in order to look her best for their date, including hair, nails, a bag, and a gown, which added up to a total of ₦51,000.
The man expressed his disbelief in the post, saying, “Just a meet-up for a date for the first time. She wants to use me to alleviate poverty.”
The screenshot sparked a flurry of reactions in the comment section, with many users sharing their opinions.
Some users found humor in the situation, with one commenter wondering how “guys package girls to this extent,” while others noted that this might reflect broader expectations fueled by social media trends or peer pressure.
One user humorously admitted to only having “house dates,” while another pointed out that the woman’s expectations might have been influenced by seeing similar behaviors online.
Another commenter suggested that the man might have fallen into a common trap, warning him not to let the situation affect his confidence in future encounters.
The post has ignited a conversation about modern dating dynamics and expectations, with people debating the appropriateness of such requests and the pressures that come with meeting new people in today’s social media-driven world.
