In a viral clip, he explained that men should always put down their credit cards during the first 'three to four months of dating'
He captioned the video: “Men must pay.”
Niko started by explaining that in 'modern dating' many men think they have to split the bill.
'No, you pay for the dates. You pay, you pay, and if you can't pay then you shouldn't even be dating,” he said.
“You have to focus on your work, on your purpose, and making money to the point where you can afford to take a woman out and show her a good time.”
He noted that if men asked women to share the costs, they should walk away, because those who refused to pay for dates “had no idea at all.”
The dating guru added, “That just shows me that you have no dating experience, you have no idea of what's masculine and what's feminine, and you're just completely dropping the ball.”
The 34-year-old further noted that men have to pay during dates the first 'three to four months' of a relationship.
'You as a man pay for everything. Shut the fuck up and drop that credit card on the table, you're paying b****,” he said at the end of the clip.
Niko said men who refuse to pay for dates 'don't have a clue'
