@🃏everybody hates motion🃏:”The babes are not the problem na those dodoyo wey go dey help them live that lifestyle date a broke babe but don’t expect yourself to be feeding her simple.”
@Efe:”The mentality of our Nigerian ladies is actually rooted from the family, a situation when a mother is already asking an 18yrs old girl to bill her boyfriend. A lady will asked her parent from something the next thing you hear is “don’t you have a boyfriend”. It is rooted.”
@LOBITALKS:”I actually support the motion 😂. The economy is too crazy right now to dream of a lifestyle you can’t afford and expect someone else to constantly fund it. To me, having a high standard is simple: I like it, I can afford it, I get it. If you want a particular reality, you should also be willing to build the capacity to afford that reality.”
@Principal⭐️:”High standards without a matching plan can turn dating into a full-time financial project. Compatibility matters more than appearances.”
@Mr.Jein:”Choosing to date someone with high Taste and no hustle is just voluntary torture.”
