“The moment people stopped giving flowers, replace with money, poblems begin” — Man says

A man has gone viral after sharing his thoughts on modern dating, explaining how traditional gestures like giving flowers signal love, while replacing them with money can indicate deeper problems in relationships.

Man says flowers have been replaced with money

In a heartfelt post, he said:

“The moment people stop giving flowers and replace them with money, that’s when I know problems have started in the relationship space. Flowers are a symbol of love, and even the white people who started the tradition are still using flowers.”

He explained that in Nigeria, gestures like flowers are often replaced with cash, showing that money has become the priority over genuine expressions of affection. According to him, the shift from symbolic gestures to materialistic ones reveals character and values.

@dannybnxk added: “My hubby will know that she met an intentional wealthy man who upholds traditional meaning to kind gestures. When wealth is no longer the chase, poor character exposes itself.”

@Efedrift asked: “So na flower una take show love before colonialism? Answer that question first.”

@Nate0x0x commented: “I never saw the meaning of that thing. It’s crude and just belittles the action. We make cash.”
