Asking for money from a man nowadays is not easy. Doing so may make you seem like a cheap and desperate woman while at the worst, you will be branded a gold digger. Bet you don’t want that.So how do you get a man to spend on you given that men are afraid of gold diggers while others are super stingy? These tips will help you through:
1. Be independent
If you want a man to spend on him, you must first show him that you can also spend on yourself. That you can pay your bills, get yourself new stuff and afford to go out with your girlfriends without asking for help. This will make him respect you and he won’t feel like you are dependent on him.
2. Have standards
Don’t portray yourself as a cheap woman who every man can afford to maintain. Instead, be classy such that he feels challenged to meet your standards. And because he wants to impress you, he will spend all he can to keep your standards high.
3. Let him be the man
Don’t just treat him as an equal just because you both have good jobs. He is the man and you should let him be, by allowing him to treat you. I am not saying that you should let him do everything, but you should not be too fast to reach for your wallet.

4. Be kind
No man will spend on you if all you do is try drain his wallet and you have nothing to offer in return. Even if you don’t have much money, at least show some willingness to spend the little you have on him. Get him a gift, pay for dinner once in a while and offer to help him settle the bills.
5. Be grateful
When he spends on you, don’t just take it for granted. Letting him know how much you appreciate increases the chance of him spending on you again and more generously.
