According to him, anytime he gives money to his lover, she rejects it, saying: “’Let's use it for something very important.’”

He added that the only time his lover accepted a gift from him was when he bought her a phone worth GHC1500, but he had to lie to her about the price because she would deem it a waste of money.

In a letter that was shared on Anonymous Confessions of Ghanaian Women, the man said that his lover’s extraordinary attitude is making him suspect that she might be cheating on him.

“Keep me anonymous please I have been dating this for 3-4years now and I seem worried. she doesn't ask me for money and whenever you try then she is like ‘let use it for something very important.

“If I can recall; the only thing she has accepted from me is a phone which coated 1500gh of which that one sef I had to lie to her concerning the price of the phone. I'm very worried and thinking she is seeing someone else aside me that's why she is doing that thou she has introduced me to her parents,” he lamented.

He is asking for advice as to whether or not it is normal for a lady to not ask her boyfriend for money or accept it when offered to her.

His concern has sparked mixed reactions on Facebook, with most people saying he should count himself lucky because women of his girlfriend’s kind are rare, while others say the lady’s consistent rejection of money and gifts could be a red flag.

So in this case, please learn to love her right and always be there for her with the little little things that excites her. Ultimately try to be trustworthy and open to her regarding everything. Such women thinks about you and your success. Don’t let her slip. Be a good boyfriend who is sensitive to her needs.”
