"There’s this guy I once dated for two years. I saw his payslip and realised I could pay him his monthly salary four times a month. I tried to stay in the relationship, but I failed. Men, hide your payslips."

@Mshengu took a jab at the situation with:

"Were you looking for employment or love?"

@ASHRAF 1 found humour in the situation:

"🀣🀣🀣🀣🀣 He is better, he has a payslip."

@Duks succinctly summarised the sentiment:

"When you’re dating for a living 😏"

Toni Winston also noted that:

"πŸ˜­πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚I hide mine like my pancreas"

Domingos asked:

"Do you get married to a payslip that's just a separate paper?"

@Ion also chimed in with:

"One good thing about transactional relationships is they are easy to end when you're no longer interested, nothing to explain, just say something bad about your finances, and she will leave you alone."

The girlies were also torn by the statement. @kgothi shared her contrasting perspective:

"We're different, guys 🀣 I would have stayed. My ex once gave me R200 – only R200 – and I was over the moon; I was really happy."

@Tumza Nakza added his two cents, saying:

"I dated someone earning more than me, but I had better cash flow than her."

Meanwhile, @flawedfitness8 recalled a similar experience:

"He once told me his salary. I had to reduce mine by R10K. Man, hate us 😭😭"

@Siziwe Sidzumo offered a more calmer approach:

"If he treats me well, takes care of what he needs to take care of, and I never have to babysit his ego, I would have stayed, shame."
