Popular Nigerian media personality, Chude Jideonwo, has revealed that financial expectations have never defined his romantic relationships, stating that he has never dated a woman who demanded money from him.
The 40-year-old media entrepreneur explained that his relationships with women have always been built on values beyond material gain. He disclosed that financial support was never a condition in his past relationships.
Speaking during a recent interview with TVC News, Jideonwo shared a personal experience from his early dating life, noting that his first girlfriend, who was a single mother, was financially more stable than he was at the time and even supported him.
“I have never ever dated a woman who ever asked me for money. I have never! In fact, at some point, my first girlfriend who was a single mother and was already making more money than me, was the one assisting me financially instead of demanding from me,” he said.
