You are a selfcentred person. You can only get blessed when you help without expecting anything. Infact I visited my ex in her school ...as I was driving out I saw a lady crying and I requested to know why she was crying ...I was able to find out from some students that she will not be allowed to sit for exam the next day...I took her to the nearest atm and withdrew the whole cash plus additional cash for her personal need....she was so happy ...seeing that happiness in her face made me happy...atleast I have done something nice. There is a difference btw you not having and having and not helping. Help without any strings attached and you will reap the reward in a great way. That lady might be your saviour tomorrow. I practice what I preach.
Some people are stingy. Some are ingrates. Some will call you names. Yes, but that should not deter one from giving out. Nice one

u and I kw very well that op needs a relationship from that girl, from his write up you can smell it, dats y most advise u see here are just warning him to reconsider the help he is given out and forget it b'cos, he might b expecting the lady to jump on his shoulder after doing it, , and he should nt b surprise if he sees the girl in another guys hux d next day,
actually the girl don define d relationship already for op, so it's left for op

That is why people should learn to give without expecting. In fact, it makes you a bigger person. The only exception is when the person decides to make you a regular sponsor.

When Dino was giving out money to the public, he was seen giving N2k each with all the ferrari parked in his compound. I know your manhood wants to give her the N30k but trust me once you cum on top her TOTO, say byebye to your N30k, and she will blackmake you emotionally when the toto begin sweet you.

When a girl says she's in a platonic friendship with you, what does she really mean?

Is it just Casual friends with no relationship attached or Closed and deep friends to confide in with no emotions or affections or love relationship that you both are dating but absence of sex?

well I got a friend I asked her to define our friendship and she said we are just in a platonic friendship that's all. Though I like it that way cos I don't want any distractions as I don dey near to finish school so I'm battling how I'll shoot from this boundary 2:1 to first class which seems to be a Herculean task so dating and engaging on all those stuff may dampen my goal now.


Okay straight to the point, so this girl that told me we are nothing but platonic friends has some financial issues as she hasn't paid her fees as her parents are financially drained (dad got sacked, mom's business isn't flowing) so she risked suspending her studies cos she couldn't register her courses and the school fees is 50k (Course registration inclusive) and she had to struggle and hustle during the holidays and earned 20k and now needs 30k to complete an pay her fees and register her courses.

I long paid mine and there's this work that entered for me an I had 50k gain and tho I don't have any pressing needs except to boost my wardrobe and save the cash or by my mumsy a present.... But my mind and conscience is irking me that I should send her the 30k and help her out but that money is too much to give out to a platonic friend that I'm not sure I'll marry, so I should just start taking care of someone's future wife Due to the issues she's passing thru she may not be able to pay back.
so guys what's your advice in this? what's the extent of help u can give a platonic friend?
Had it been u were in my shoes would you lease out such amount of money to a platonic friend without refund

Buy your mother a present.

Somehow, her fees will get paid. And she'll respect you more.
Re: What Is The Extent Of Financial Help You Can Offer A Platonic Friend? by AreaFada2: 2:29am On Aug 24, 2019
Dude, help out of "church mind" to allow her do her courses.
But consider if she'd rescue you in a similar situation. Even if she won't you can still assist if you can afford it.

My approach would be to give her part of the money and say please find to complete it.

Remember that most people you assist will not even remember in a few years. Never mind in any way reciprocating.

Also ensure that emotional attachment or sexual attraction is NOT driving you to help.

from what the op said the girl didn't ask him for the money na
he just observed she had a need

well first of all OP are you attracted to her sexually
because if you are you might see that as a leverage to get her after giving her the cash and if she turns you down .........we know the rest (another new thread)


if you have no special attraction for her
I go advise give her half
see how she appreciates it

if she is very thankful and deep down she knows you don't need anything in return she will feel indebted to you

I will advise you not to hold on till she asks you
if you want to give her give her before she asks you

she will appreciate it better

law of reciprocation

If you cannot help her without wanting something in return, please don't. The truth is, you'll feel you can control her after giving her this money, and you'll expect she shows more care towards you, then from there you'll develop one "konji feelings" , las las you'll smash and forget the 30k.
She's in a vulnerable state now, can you see her as your sister? If you can't, then watch how God will raise an helper for that young lady.

I wanted to give some advice,but it seems you said all my minds

the only thing I don't like in that your post is your insincerity. you don't want anything to affect ya 2:1 hence why you don't want relationship or fall in love. if you haven't fall in love with the said lady why asked her your kind of friendship with her? why bothered with her blunt response of being in a platonic relations with you


in nutshell, if the lady had hide her intention and pretend to you, when you asked the baby question and she said you're in a friendship that might lead to marriage, I'm sure you wouldn't have open this thread before giving her the money


information you didn't pay for, 99.1% are the percentage of my female friends while male friends struggle to be 0.09% then in school. I smashed 80% of these ladies without toasting them.

I have nothing to say in regards to money, if you should give her money, it's ya choice. my male friend in school once gave a lady 50k to do shopping when food hard for me his guy to eat then

You think you have all the solutions to life? So you believe that once you date or marry a rich woman with money that your financial problems are over. Prepare to be disappointed.

I don't know why some people are telling the Op not to help the girl, every relationship must not be associated with sex, do you know there are some situations you can find yourself in that even your so called girlfriend cannot help you out but that your platonic friend. Some friends are like family. Op my advise is, you know the girl more than everyone, if your friendship with her is cool with you, if she is sincere and always there for you in her own little way please help her without anything attached, forget about how the girl will appreciate it, the God that sees in secret will never forsake you but if you will expect something in return from the girl or if you see her with another guy you will start saying where was the guy when she needed help or date me bcoz I help you please hold your money, thank you.
