Bernice Burgos just dropped some truth bombs on dating, and they’re sparking a massive debate. Apparently, for her, a man showing he cares is all about the “little details,” which include sending some cash!
In a now-viral clip from The Joe Budden Podcast, the model and entrepreneur broke down exactly what she finds romantic, and it’s giving high-standard softness with a luxury twist.
“I think being romantic is how you speak to a lady,” Burgos said before diving into a very specific example that made jaws drop and group chats light up. “If you know the little small things and you say, ‘Hey babe, here’s $500, go get yourself some more panties.’ ‘How’d you know I need some?’ ‘Oh, I checked your drawer.'”
Bernice Burgos isn’t talking about a simple “wyd” text. She’s talking about action, attention to detail, and a little financial love language on the side.
And it didn’t stop there. Burgos added that if she’s in a supermarket and texts her man, only for him to respond with a casual $500 to “make it easier,” that’s the kind of romantic effort she notices. “It’s cute. It’s so cute,” she emphasized.
Of course, not everyone in the room, or online, agreed that money equals romance. So when asked if she could name romantic gestures that didn’t involve cash, Bernice didn’t fold. She said shutting down a restaurant for a private dinner for two is just as swoon-worthy.
Romantic? Yes. Still pricey? Kinda.
But love and money aren’t new themes in Bernice’s world. Over the years, the Bronx-born beauty has made headlines for more than her stunning looks and thriving fashion business. Her love life has kept fans tuned in, too, whether it was her rumored fling with rapper Young M.A. or links to NBA star Jaylen Brown, Meek Mill, and even music heavyweights like Drake, T.I., Quavo, and Trey Songz.
The internet split faster than a dinner bill at a first date. Some called her “high maintenance”; others nodded along like, “Finally, someone said it!”
But honestly, Bernice Burgos’ dating résumé reads like a VIP roster. And when you’ve dated men whose Venmo receipts could fund a small island, of course, your love standards include financial foreplay.
