Because women have many needs and turn to demand a lot from their partners. The young Ghanaian man said women should find something to do for themselves rather than waste their time on men who can't provide for them.

"Dating a man who can't help you financially is a total waste of time. Let's be real and you the ladies, find some work to do because no one owes you any favours," he said.

Speaking to YEN.com.gh, Apostle Eric Okai, Senior Pastor of Elim Church and a relationship expert said it is not right for people to make financial demands from their partners during courtship as it is just a period of getting to know each other.

"People are not supposed to make financial demands from their partner during courtship. Courtship is not marriage so you are not sure if this relationship will lead to marriage," he stated.
