A Nigerian woman has stirred social media discussion with candid remarks about relationships, wealth, and intentions in dating.
She argued that financial considerations often shape women’s romantic choices, comparing the search for a wealthy partner to a man seeking employment.
“That girl that has accepted you, you feel she loves you. She accepted you because you are the richest among her options. The way a man looks for a job, that’s the same way a woman hunts for a rich boyfriend. They’ll use you, wait for the right person, someone that is richer than you,” she said.
Her comments have sparked mixed reactions, with some agreeing and others criticising the generalisation of women’s motives.
Relationship experts caution that while finances may influence dating, reducing love to monetary calculations overlooks the complexities of modern relationships.
“This isn’t just about love—it’s about survival, opportunity, and social strategy,” she added.
