Was Deji right to dump Dupe? Read the story that got Nigerian twitter talking

According to the twitter user who shared the true story, a man takes a new girlfriend out shopping for the first time to a highbrow store and she takes a bag worth N250 which he paid for. But then he gets mad and dumps her. His reasoning - 'a woman should not buy what she can't afford herself on another person's tab'. But then why take her to an expensive store and why didn't he react when she picked the 250k bag? Read the rest of the tweets after the cut and decide if he was right to dump her...

Dis d untold story ~ He invite her to Lagos, and after d much ado browsing compensate her wit d 250k bag, and broke up wit her. Dis is d end of d untold story.

Pls let b sincere wit oursef its only when a guy doesn't want u he makes one flimsy excuse to let go of u.

Really I av read most of the comments. My own thought is - I don't think he will be so angry if she picked a couple of things that add up to N250K. Picking a bag that's that expensive shows that she is a spendthrift and has no compassion because she knows it's not her money and maybe she wanted to go to ondo and tell all her friends about how her oil guy didn't even batt and eyelid over the price. It's so ridiculous that even women that work in oil company won't just stop and buy n250k bag.
The Whole idea of guys testing girls it's actually very wrong to me tho. Who are we to test pple. How many of us can really pass God's test.
I think she'll be counting her loss or rejoicing that she got a bag. (that might be stolen sef. Lol) anyways me am looking for oil company Bobo o. Anyone can pass him up to me... CiaO

He did very well by dumping her Girls eyes are too big she went too far first impression matters a lot, even if she can afford it picking a bag worth 250k is not worth it @ all and it shows dat she can spend money for nothing.

Lol....dats funny

I wonder how some girls think....

Unknown said...

Deji even tried to pay for the bag cos I won't spend a dime for such a girl. He was right to dump her.

Unknown said...

There is definitely more to the dumping story.....

The store was an expensive one!.....what did Deji expect?.....Plus how come he knew the girl couldn't afford it?.....

Being Rich definitely doesn't make you wealthy!......

Deji is so poor all he has is 'Money'....

The story doesn't fly......He does not like the girl....People have bought cars and houses for girls they like and wanna marry...

Unknown said...

Broke? Darling, reason.. he prolly wanted her to buy a farewell gift n used dat as an excuse to x the relationship. .nobody walks into a highbrow boutique n not know that things r expensive. .he obviously could afford it. Maybe she didn't meet his expectations wen she came to stay over n used dat as an excuse.. then again. . I think twas lame of him to breakup bcos of d price of a bag.. why didn't he just take her to balogun market? Mscheeew. .stale dude!

Unknown said...

D guy must have boasted about whr he works nd d money he makes for him to have taken her to a boutique in ikoyi nd d babe too no wan settle for less.....

Lesson; Girls make your own money and stop relying on men's money. To Deji, you did well, that lady was going to milk you dry. To the ladies supporting Dupe and back lashing Deji, I bet you're all in d same category of runs girls!

He was an idiot (throwing money around unnecessarily), she is greedy (can't say don't throw)...perfect couple!

Oma said...

well the bag was expensive,she could have declined the shopping and instead told the guy to keep his money,while they get to knpw each other.It is understandable that the guy will be touchy considering the fact that he is loaded and probably comes across a lot of gold digging girls.So i font blame the guy.Girl no calculate at all.

Anonymous said...

Wrong...if 250k is her price then shes cheap.

Unknown said...

Just bcos u take a girl to an expensive restaurant does not mean she should point to a $1000 dollar food ... she has an option to decline and say lemme cook for u at home... buh my naija girls can never say no...prob he was testing her u can never tell..he is matured for even buying it for her the girl throat long from lagos to ondo .

Juleslouis said...

I do not blame Deji for dumping Dupe. For chrssakes some girls no dey try! Anyway let me not start repeating cuz his reasons r clear enough. Ladies be wise! #gold digging ish#

Dreezy the quidnunc said...

Exactly... I would do the same cos getting married to an inconsiderate woman is a hell of a deal... Instead of her to carry 5 bagco sack wey no go enta 100box ... Ahahaha lmao

Dreezy the quidnunc said...

Are u saying the 250k bag is the cheapest thing in d boutique?

Anonymous said...

You are right.

Anonymous said...

First of all, if he did not have that type of money, why did he take her there? Second, what makes him think she cannot afford it or even more than that? if she can afford it, should she have pretended to take a less expensive item because she wants to make a good impression? lesson learnt, dont take a girl to an expensive shop if you will get angry when she choses an expensive item, you dont use that as a yardstick to choose a wife.

Anonymous said...

He took her to a highbrow store! What if the 250k bag was the cheapest in the store? He shld have taken her to a store that befits his pocket! Smh

And she stays in Ondo??????????? Forget!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That babe na retired Lagos Island olosho.

Anonymous said...

I do not understand why people are querying him for taking her to an expensive boutique. Taking her to the expensive boutique was a test. He wanted to see the quality of her personality and too bad she failed.

If i were her, i will pick an iphone 6with 32gb

Can you afford a 250k bag?

Anonymous said...

I'm sure that wasn't the least item in the shop, she could have taken other things way less than 250k

Americannah said...

Money for house rent for a year! Money for a plot of land (somewhere anywhere) lol. Some wedding ceremonies ghan no cost reach 250k! Well, she should go ahead and marry the bag.lmao I just cant!!

You take a girl to an expensive store for a date and u call her names for picking just one item? she didn't ask for it oh, why didn't he just take her to a middle class store or just some eatry or movies to avoid drama? If ure forming baba olowo den u sud be ready to pay whateva bill...she no lose and God go give her her very own man eventually

Do u. Have. Brain at all d question is can she afford it herself, what if d guy don't have up to that amount isn't that embarrassment, ladies be warned o,

Manuel Kunmi said...

He wanted to be serious with her but with what she did, she probably proved to him that she's an opportunist who doesn't see the relationship materialising into something more

Yes I support Deji 100%. She is wicked and she is not a wife material

Anonymous said...

well, when a man is looking for a wife you do not expect his first date to be at a mama put! he did ok by taking her to an expensive boutique cos he has the cash-doesn't he work in an oil and gas sector- but when the lady picks 1 item for 250k, trust me that lady isn't ready to be a wife. to those girls who support dupe, i trust all of u are the same with her, as for deji,he should have atleast talked to her about how he felt rather than leaving her immediately.

the guy is stupid. who takes a lady to a boutique as a freaking date??? good! Lesson learned. Dupe you sef no dey try. you cant keep doing that when you meet a man. respect yourself and have some decorum

Deji is obviously ready to settle and not in the mood to time waste. Rightway he did his first test,girl fails and the end!Dupe 250k is too much,haba!If bag wasn't price tagged as soon as you realized price,drop the bag.

Some girls shaaaa ooo! Dey just fyn for face n body but com com head #empty brains!. Had some lyk this way back in uni, they do the highest wrongs but wil come back 2 borrow money from you. They will go as far as telling how u re wasting Ur beauty by dating just your boyfriend. Mtcheww

Please don't blame the girl, do u guys know what the Dupe told her. I am a guy and some guys form nonsense. Sweetie your even nice.

Jostus is here.. said...

How about rejecting every items in that highbrow boutique claiming they are too expensive hhuh?

Betty said...

Come on Dupe!!! That is somebody's house rent and you can also get a land at Ikorodu for that amount. Deji did right by dumping her. How could a sane woman pick a 250k bag? A bag you cannot afford yourself. Even if Deji has a money tree in his bedroom, does not mean she should take advantage of that.
If she does that on her first date what, would she do if they eventually get married? Suck the man dry!!!

Jblinks said...

This guy is very wicked... was it meant to be window shopping? I'm very sure that has been his pattern with chics. He under-rates them, takes dem to an expensive boutique, wen they see d high price, they would walk out da door wit notin. Dat way he ends up buying them notin. But this tym bush meat catch the hunter... if u hav plans marrying her why carry her to an expensive shop? were u planning to teach her how to wreck you in marriage? I don't like commenting on a one sided story though. Oshofree #hit&run.

Shut up please...stop making a fool of yourself trying to impress Linda in the name of civilization...we all want a right thinking Lady,a woman with values.vice versa....what I expect you to say here is the guy should go back for her if she's remorseful,I believe she did that out of ignorance,the lesson would be clear now if she really is a woman of virtue.stop compromising your opinions here...being real was your best quality,I noticed since Linda started hyping you,you make stupid posts

Best comment. Thank you

Shalis said...

But he didn't take her to buy land, he too her shopping,in a high profile store, was he expecting her to window shop? Abegiii, she was nice to have bought only a bag, if na me, I for collect to match shoes, clothes and accessories...next time he will take her to yaba..wisdom

AGBA ENJOYMENT said...

The young man was right. It's not like he can't afford to buy her the bag but he needed to test her to be sure she can manage finances when the money is not there. Personally I have done same on so many occasion. A girl I was supposed to marry is meeting me for the first time even when she is aware that our relationship is heading for marriage, after reading out her laws for me on the first date about the things s he wants in a man and things she doesn't like. On leaving the place, as I made to say good bye she bluntly asked me if I wasn't going to find her something or transport. I felt embarrassed. I gave her money but that was the end of me and her.

Naturally, I didn't expect her to do that. It's not like I didn't have the money. But been reserved as a woman matters alot. So my guy is right.

I like the guy, he knows what he wants. D girl went too far. Haba 250k bag

Unknown said...

I can see clearly you and dupe are birds of a feather

Unknown said...

Smh... See how you are thinking. Like 250k is small money. You are one of the problems we have in this generation. You will just be spending money anyhow trying to form trend and celebrity status. Oponu ni e sha

Unknown said...

SEE! This is what I was thinking too. You are the most sensible girl on here. Girls like you are so hard to find!

Unknown said...

Cheap skate? He paid 250k. That's someone's salary. You are obviously a spend thrift with no savings. Oniranu

ASAMPOKOTO said...

I agree with Deji, might have been a test. She should have humbled herself. I would have said im good lets leave. My opinion sha.

Anonymous said...

Exactly! With someone who's not your hubby and you just started dating. He was so right

Anonymous said...

AM very sure, the reason deji took her shopping was for she to get new cloths and shoes, so that she will look for presentable to his family and friends,but instead she went for a BAG, like those girls u pick on the street and clubs, which shows, she is still not ready for the kind of relationship he was after

Unknown said...

I might do the same... but in my own case I will hardly let you know why I'm dumping you.
They are both responsible for their actions and they didn't cut their cot according to their sizes.
All the same... people, use you brains and be reasonable.

Unknown said...

Dupe no suppose collect 250k bag for a single item on a first date even if the guy na oil man, chai,,,and for the facts,i repeat there is no boutique in lagos state that does not have goods worth below 100k.

Oh shutuuuup!!! Oh ye bitches with poverty mentality, it's people like you that encourage men to think from their anus.
Let me give you one, so you'll understand why it's lovely to buy, carry or borrow a bag of 250k!

All the people saying he is wrong are MAD (the M and A and D are loud) !!!! why did he too take her there?? he obviously wanted to TEST her and she failed woefully!!! it was a TEST im sure. correct guy. marry that woman and she will ruin you. can she afford it?? so why pick it. I am a man and rest assured if she did not pick any item, he would have called his mother that "I HAVE FOUND WIFE O". she is not wife material.

Please some of those stores 250 K might be one of the cheapest prices. The guy took her there she didn't ask. She herself might have been shocked at the prices. But probably thought the guy likes to spend on his women

WHEN I FIRST READ THIS STORY, I TOTALLY AGREED WITH DEJI BUT NOW AFTER THINKING ABOUT IT...........THAT DEJI GUY IS A FAKE ASS STINGY MAN.

LET ME EXPLAIN MYSELF BEFORE YOU ALL ATTACK ME.



1) WHY WOULD DEJI TAKE DUPE TO A HIGHBROW BOUTIQUES IN IKOYI IN THE FRIST PLACE? I BELIEVE THEY SAY YOU SHOULD CUT YOUR QUOTE ACCORDING TO YOUR SIZE. DEJI SHOULD HAVE TAKEN DUPE TO A STORE THAT HE FEELS IS RELEVANT TO WHAT HE CAN AFFORD.

2) DEJI WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK DUPE TO THE BOUTIQUE, IT WAS NOT AS IF DUPE PULLED DEJI TO THE STORE, SO WHY WOULD HE FROWN FACE WHEN SHE PICKED OUT A 250K ITEM.

3) TO ME, IT SEEMS THAT DEJI IS A FAKE ASS, BIG BOY WANNA BE. HE WORKS FOR AN OIL COMPANY SO I CAN ONLY ASSUM THAT HE IS ACCUSTOMED TO A CERTAIN KINDA LIFESTYLE, HENCE, WHY HE TOOK DUPE TO A HIGHBROW BOUTIQUE, WHY THEN IS HE COMPLAINING? HE TOOK DUPE TO THE STORE....NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND.

4) LETS EVEN IMAING THAT HE WAS TRYING TO TEST HER BY TAKING HER TO THE HIGHBROW BOUTIQUE. 250K CANNOT BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING IN THAT SHOP, NOR WOULD IT BE THE CHEAPEST. ITS NOT AS IF DUPE SEARCHED THE WHOLE BOUTIQUE LOOKING FOR THE MOST EXPENSIVE THING. ....SHE TOOK WHAT SHE LIKED ....WHICH HAPPED TO HAVE BEEN PRICED 250K.

5) IF DEJI WAS A RESPONSIBLE 100% GENUINE GUY WHO HAD SERIOUS PLANS FOR DUPE, HE SHOULD HAVE VOICED HIS OPINION RATHER THAN FORMING FAKE BIGZZZ BOYZZZZ AND PAYING FOR THE 250K BAG. HE SHOULD HAVE TOLD HER THAT......BABE, YOU WANNA EMPTY MY BANK ACCOUNT NI........(IN A JOKING WAY) AND SHE WOULD HAVE UNDERSTOOD WHAT HE WAS TRYING TO SAY. MAYBE SHE WOULD HAVE PICKED SOMETHING THAT CHEAPER, OR EVEN PRETENDED THAT SHE DID NOT LIKE ANYTHING IN THE BOUTIQUE.

6) TO ME, DUPE IS NOT NECESSARILY GREEDY LIKE MOST PEOPLE ARE SAYING, ITS NOT AS IF SHE ENTERED THE STORE AND PICKED OUT 100 ITEMS, SHE ONLY PICKED 1 SINGLE ITEM....WHICH WAS PRICED "REASONABLY" AT 250K IN THE "CONTEXT" OF THE PRICE RANGE OF OTHER ITEMS IN THE BOUTIQUE.


.....LET ME SIGHT ANOTHER EXAMPLE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ACCUSING DUPE IN THIS MATTER........

IMAGIN DEJI HAD TAKEN DUPE TO A VERY POSH RESTAURANT FOR THE ELITE. OBVIOUSLY, EVERYTHING IN THE MENU WOULD BE EXPENSIVE....EVEN THE WATER WOULD BE OVER PRICED. NOW LETS IMAGIN THAT DUPE ORDERED HER MEAL AND DEJI PAID FOR IT WITHOUT COMPLAINING. ON GETTING HOME, DEJI BREAKS UP WITH DUPE BECAUSE HE FEELS THAT THE FOOD SHE ORDERED WAS TOO EXPENSIVE.

.....NOW, WOULD YOU STILL AGREE WITH DEJI?

IF YOU ARE NOT A REAL BIG BOY, NO NEED TO FAKE IT.

DUPE SHOULD BE HAPPY BECAUSE HE IS NOT A HUSBAND MATERIAL. IF DEJI FELT THAT 250K WAS TOO STEEP FOR HIM, HE SHOULD HAVE VOICED HIS OPINION RATHER THAN PAY FOR THE BAG. AND THEN DUMPING HER ON THAT ACCOUNT.

DEJI IS OBVIOUSLY A SILENT KILLER, HE WATCHED DUPE WHILST SHE PICKED OUT THE BAG, HE EVEN PAIED FOR IT AND THEN BREAK UP WITH HER AFTER THE DEED WAS DONE. RATHER, HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN HONST ABOUT HIS OWN POCKET.

.....ROLLING MY BIG EYES............WHAT MAKES DEJI FEEL THAT DUPE COULD NOT AFFORD THE BAG ON HER OWN TAB ANYWAYS? ITS NOT AS IF DUPE IS NOT WORKING FOR HER OWN MONEY, MAYBE SHE IS NOT EARNING AS MUCH AS HIM BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN SHE CANNOT SAVE AND BUY THE BAG HERSELF.

IN CONCLUSION, I CANNOT BLAIM DUPE, DEJI IS THE ONE FAKING BIG BOY, AND HE ONLY BROKE UP WITH DUPE BECAUSE HIS FAKE BIG BOY TRICKS COST HIM SOME MONEY HE WAS NOT PLANING ON SPENDING ON A BAG.

LESSON FOR DEJI........BE YOURSELF....KEEP IT 100, 24/7. FAKE DOES NOT PAY.....NOW YOUVE LOST A WIFE MATERIAL DUE TO YOUR FAKE ASS BIG BOY WANNA BE WAYS....TRYING TO BLAIM IT ON DUPE..............GET OUT JARE....STINGY ASS MAMA-4-KA

The dude is a fake poser. Why take her to an expensive shop to impress her if you can't afford it. Didn't he see cheaper stores in Lagos? It's just like someone taking a girl to Harrods and dumping her for picking an expensive item. Why not take her to primark which is what you can comfortably afford without qualms, that way she knows that's your level.

Most men tend to do this and have issues when they marry the girl and she realizes the dude isn't as rich as he made them believe during courtship.
