Lady shares her approach to money in relationships
Speaking during the interview, she admitted that asking someone for money does not come naturally to her.
“I don’t know how to be somebody. Like, starting asking somebody money, I don’t know how to do it. But, once the two of us are in a relationship, maybe one year.
“It depends. You know, there are some people that within two or three months, they’ll start believing. So, to me, as long as I work for my money…”
She lists what she brings to a relationship
The interviewer also asked what qualities she offers that would make a man respect her in a relationship.
In response, the lady said she contributes more than material things, stressing that she values respect, love and loyalty.
“I bring whatever I bring to me. I’ll bring it for you.
“I bring respect. I bring love. I bring loyalty. I bring anything in me out. I’ll bring it for you.”
