I’m 22 years old and recently broke up with my boyfriend after three weeks of dating. I can’t even say it was three weeks of a real relationship because we dated before in 2021, but only for four months, and all we did was have sex. I remember pranking him, saying I was pregnant, and he didn’t talk to me after that. Fast forward to this year—he came back, begging, saying he was sorry because back then, he was still learning a trade and dependent on his family.
I forgave him. We started dating again this September, and we’ve had sex four times. The only money he’s given me is N6,000, and that was because I kept asking him. We’ve never gone out together because he says he’s not the “outing type.” I can’t say I didn’t enjoy the sex, but a relationship that’s all about sex is a big “No” for me; I have a future to think about. I was tired of the relationship, so I broke up with him.
It’s not like I can’t be with a guy who doesn’t have money, but at least he should give me something. I want a relationship where sex isn’t the main topic. I want a mature relationship where the guy is willing to spend on his girlfriend. I’d also spend on him if he was doing the same for me. I want a relationship where we can plan our future together. If you’re dating me and we can’t set goals and achieve them, then I don’t want the relationship. Or is it because I don’t go out much, since I’m usually indoors?
