“If a man’s salary is N100k, how much is he supposed to give his girlfriend?” This question sparked varied responses on X, with one user replying, “Wetin person wey dey earn 100k dey use relationship do abeg?”

This comment suggests that those earning lower incomes, like N100k, shouldn’t consider relationships a priority. This mindset can be damaging, as it implies that only financial status determines one’s worth in relationships. While financial stability is crucial, relationships should be built on mutual respect, understanding, and shared values—not just income level.

Healthy relationships are about more than financial contribution; they involve emotional support and mutual growth. Instead of judging people by their salaries, it’s essential to focus on qualities that foster genuine connections. Financial constraints don’t define a person’s ability to love or be loved.
