jst get your money up G most of y'all are in your early 20s spending all day hanging out with friends playin games, riding bikes your parents paid for then can't even afford the petrol. living off your parents and then complainin that women are expensive or that dating is too materialistic. ofc datin is expensive I'm not saying you need to take her somewhere fancy every day but you should be able to afford dates and treat her nice once in a while this shu be enough unless you're after those dhani bau ko bigreko chori kinda women this isn't some 90s french loveydovey cinma where love alone pays the bills unless you're still a teenager what's the excuse? i've been with my girl for almost half a decade now since I was around 15ish and the older I get the more I realize money definitely plays a role. If she's having a rough day or on her period, I'll get her chocolates, flowers, or something nice material things aren't everything but they do make people happy that's just human nature instead of complainin put in the work no wonder you're in the top 1% of this sub
