A short YouTube monologue advising against allowing a new romantic partner to pay your bills early in dating. The speaker warns this can be manipulative, signals lack of due diligence, and argues that financial behavior in relationships reflects how someone manages money. Emphasizes wanting 'smart' partners over 'street smart' ones.
Ask why he might be trying to pay them. But you don't want someone to start paying your bills early.
Someone who does that. There's a manipulation there because they don't know you enough to actually pay your bills for you. And if they can do it for you and they only know 10% of you, they can do it for someone else that they don't know anything about as well.
It gives. I haven't done my due diligence in my investments. And if you can't trust a man and how he invests in relationships, you can't trust a man and how he invests his money.
Honey, we don't. We can't get with. With guys that are done with money, especially in this economy.
We need smart men.
And no, I don't care about men that are saying that they're street smart. If you want a guy that's street smart, you're going to be in the streets.
Do you hear me?
You're going to be homeless. Sorry. What are the girls saying? Unhoused now?
