Why Doreen Nasasira avoids dating financially struggling men

Renowned media personality Doreen Nasasira has opened up about her approach to relationships, revealing that she cannot date a man who earns significantly less than her or is struggling financially.

Nasasira explained that she once dated a financially struggling partner and says the experience left her suffering so much that she has no intention of going through it again.

According to the outspoken media personality, financial stability is now a major factor when it comes to choosing a partner, insisting that she would rather have money first and allow love to follow later.

No, I can’t date a guy who earns less than me. Once I dated someone who was financially struggling and I really suffered. So don’t take me back to that situation. I will never do it.

Nasasira went even further, questioning why a man without financial stability should rush into dating, advising men to first work on their finances before pursuing relationships.

If you don’t have money, why are you dating someone’s daughter? First get money and then date. If you know you have less money, don’t date me.

She also made it clear that, at least for her, love is no longer the primary motivation for getting into a relationship.

Nasasira openly admitted that she currently dates for financial security, arguing that money comes first while love can develop later.

Me, I won’t date for love. These days I date for money. Money first, love will come later. That’s me and that’s how feelings are triggered. Money first and love follows.

Her remarks are likely to spark a hot debate among social media users, where will support her unapologetic stance while others will question whether financial considerations should take priority over love.
