A Nigerian lady, with Twitter handle @theonlykemi, has taken to the microblogging platform to reveal why she vowed to stop buying gifts for men.
Kemi made this disclosure on Monday, December 12, following her unpleasant experiences with two men.
She said she bought a T-shirt for a man and he turned into a mere rag, while a man she gifted a cake gave it out to his neighbor in her presence.
She tweeted;
“I stopped buying gift for men since my two worst experiences. I got a tshirt for the first one and the next time I visited, it was his rag, I got a birthday cake for the second one and he gave it out to his neighbours in my presence. Ever since then I vowed never to get men gifts.”
Her tweet sparked mixed reactions online as some netizens, especially men, asserted that the gifts were probably valueless to the men.
Reacting in a follow-up tweet, she wrote,
“Everyone trying to defend what’s not and I can’t reply to all so I will just put this here.
Regardless of what ever.. those things costs me money. A little gratitude would go a long way even if it’s pretending.”
