Our tradition has made it almost an abomination for a woman to give her man money, a situation the invasion of western civilization seems to be overturning.
Unlike in the past where men were considered the money-handlers, we are now seeing situations where women are fully sponsoring projects or contributing to the same in a relationship.
Women are also coming in to save their partners during financial crises, but here are the considerations you have to put in place before bailing him out financially.
1.The seriousness of the relationship
Is he capable of taking off with your money or is he too committed to you that you are sure that your money is safe?
You must consider this, especially is it is a big sum of money to avoid losing your lifetime savings in a single move.
2. Character and habits
He might be a good man, but do not sponsor his drinking and gambling for the day.
You have to be sure that the money will be put into good use and not end up being spent on beers and sports betting.
3. If he deserves it
There are situations where you are sure that he would have paid for the bill if he had the money because he has always done it.
If it happens that his cheque is held up somewhere and he asks for your help then there is no need to be selfish.
4. The use of the money
Most men would find it rather embarrassing asking for money from their female partners based on our African culture where masculinity comes with every ability.
But is he is undertaking a massive project, for instance, a construction project, then you have a reason to hop in.
You will also live in the house and so will your children or future children anyway.
