WOMEN'S MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT COMMITMENT IN RELATIONSHIPS - MONEY

Another misconception women have about men's commitment to them is in the aspect of finances and spending.

There are two common statements about relationships that I grew up hearing people make. They are "if he loves you, he should spend his money for you" and "if you ask him for money, he will run away".

Because of these twisted statements, a lot of ladies begin to think that men who do not give them money, take them on overseas trips, buy them the best cars, take them shopping every once in a month, are probably not the serious ones. Or that if they request for money from their men, the man will leave them. Ladies, please, this is a big lie!

There is no doubt about the fact that when you love or care about someone, you want to support them in all ways including financially. But this gesture does not say that the man doing this for you is totally yours.

Then again, trying to be so modest and turning down every offer of financial assistance your boyfriend gives you cannot make him commit to you.

##There was this girl was who was so careful and not wanting to ask her boyfriend for anything except for his time. The man liked her for it. Who would not like such a girl? But do you know that he did not marry her? He went for the second girlfriend who was so extravagant, barely had his time and was always asking for money.

This story can also happen the other way round.

Do not take a man's generosity for seriousness in a relationship. Some men can give you half of their estate and still not commit to you. And there are some who would not give their girl money but are truly going for the real thing. In either case, watch out for where his heart is. For the first guy, if your hearts are not saying the same thing, be grateful for his generosity and look else where. However, if your heart beats for the second, then hold onto him.

What I am trying to say here is, don't base your judgment of a man's seriousness in a relation on his ability to spend money on you. And don't conclude a man is not serious because he is not giving you money. You might miss it. Not everyone knows how to throw money on people's faces.

Remember people are different! Different men use different tactics to woo their women..#winks# They also look out for different things...

Remember, you are not a commodity! Money should not buy you.

So just be yourself, balance things up and ensure you are happy!

Cheers
