It’s not a sin to a date broke man — Actress Didi Ekanem

Nollywood filmstar Didi Ekanem has gotten ladies on social media talking after she shared some relationship advice that should be considered ahead of the new year which is just a few days away.

The actress started off by noting that there should be no judgement when it comes to the male partners that ladies decide to allow into their lives and enter into a relationship with.

Ekanem made a reference to how mothers in the past had ignored all odds and gone ahead to marry even if their partners were not exactly rich.

She went on to note that ladies who are lucky to meet men who spend so much on them should not make other ladies feel unlucky.

“If our mothers did not marry our broke fathers then, we will not be here. If you are lucky to find a man that takes care of you, lucky you then but don’t feel the need to make other women feel like they are unlucky because their destiny is different.”

The actress submitted that even though money is good, it should never be used as a yardstick for a good relationship.

Ekanem sighted examples of how ladies have driven some men to the extreme all in the name of seeking wealth.

“Money is good but don’t make it a yardstick for a good relationship. Stop calling men broke. If they become armed robbers now, you will complain. If they become yahoo boys, you will say God forbid, I can’t marry a yahoo boy, yet you call them broke.” 

Ekanem rounded up her post by noting that it is not a crime to date men who are not yet financially buoyant.
