There is no romance with no finance. A couple of years ago it was stated on Twitter by the cool chicks that a broke man does not deserve an erection.

In these times it seems a guy who isn't swimming in a pool of bank notes doesn't have a fair shot at love either.

On Sunday, December 4, 2016, Twitter user @Spino_OnipSgh shared a screenshot of a text he received from a woman we presume he had been asking out for a while.

In her text, she bluntly told the guy that he wasn't rich enough to date her. If that wasn't enough she friend zoned him.

"I think we should just remain as friends" read her text, "I know you expressed interest in me before, but I don't think that your financial situation is stable enough to seek a relationship with me." That was very honest. Thumbs up to the chick for coming out with the truth and not playing him.

As for @Spino_OnipSgh he merely tweeted "My evening, anyway, how's yours?" A lot of people on his timeline encouraged him and said this message should push him to chase his dreams.

In today's world love and money go together. As a Nigerian guy, it is believed that you should have enough money to take care of bae and her needs but with the fast rising feminist movement in Nigeria, and gender equality where does the 'no romance without finance' fit in a few years?
