Ladies, how to make the stingy Nairobi man spend on you this Easter


Every woman, even the one who has smashed the glass ceiling, likes to be pampered. Unfortunately there are men who will just not spend on a woman.

The good news is that a woman can work around it. Here are tricks that will get him spending on you;

1. First things first – Before you start plotting on how to get him to spend, you need to first make sure that a man has money to spend. This is easy; a good look at his demeanor, his shoes or his car will tell you volumes about his bank balance. Once you have established that he actually has money to spend, proceed with your plan.

2. Look the part – No, do not go on a date with a man when you are having a bad hair day and think that he will feel pity on you and get you a make-over. If you want a man to spend on you, you need to look your best. He will want to keep you looking like this so he will spend on you.

3. Be nice – To be able to worm your way into a man’s wallet, you will need to first worm your way into his heart. Men crave respect and recognition. Give them to him. Treat him really well and then watch the magic happen.

4. Don’t be quick to pull out your wallet – I know, this is the era of equality. Nairobi women are consistently treating their male counterparts as equals. If you go on a date and you quickly pull out your wallet to pay the bill, this man will never be inspired to spend money on you.

5. Ask – The simplest way to get a man to spend money on you is to simply ask him. Ask him to buy you a drink and see how closely he holds onto his wallet. If he takes you shopping and you fall in love with a dress, ask him to buy it for you.

6. Be independent – the reason some men will not spend on a woman is that they are afraid that she will become dependent on him. Show him that you can adequately care for yourself. Make him think that he needs to spend on you not because you can’t take care of yourself but because you deserve it.

7. Be ready to give – They say that nothing on earth is for free. This is true even when it comes to matters of the heart. Seeing as he already has money, this man will want things from you. You must be ready to give him emotional intimacy and support as well as mental support.

8. Reciprocate – No you do not need to spend huge amounts of money on him. Buy him ice cream or take him to the movies once in a while. This will make him see that you believe in giving as much as receiving.
