“My girlfriend left me 4 years ago, we
started dating when we were in JS3 and we planned to get married as soon
as we finish Uni and get good jobs. After graduation and NYSC I applied
for jobs but didn’t get any.
I had this childhood friend, he already
had a job and was doing well. We were not that close but we grew up in
the same area and went to school together at some point so I consider
him a friend and he knew I was dating my girl. One day, my girlfriend
told me he asked for her hand in marriage. I was very angry, he knew we
were together and have intentions of getting married once I find my
feet.
Before I knew what was happening, he
took drinks to her parents and they accepted him knowing fully well me
and their daughter had plans. My girl cried and cried, she didn’t want
to get married to him but her parents pushed her and she eventually
agreed.
It was the lowest point of my life, I
locked myself inside for weeks and even thought of committing suicide.
She was the love of my life and it really affected me. I’ll be 28 in a
few weeks and the only thing that matters to me now is work, happiness
and becoming a better man.
They’ve been married for 4 years but she
hasn’t been able to conceive. She said her mum told her to go and beg
me and ask for my forgiveness. I told her I have nothing against her, I
wasn’t ready and it wasn’t her fault. I’m actually not happy she hasn’t
conceived and I do pray God Blesses their Union.” #HumansOfLagos
