I've had davido's song ASSURANCE playing in my head all day! My version is 'I am looking for a brother,'somebody my lover'.In actual reality,I'm so much of a Miss independent,Miss handle my own stuff but it gets tiring atimes if you can relate,if you can't,my friend off your phone light and getoutttttt(in kora obidi's voice) just kidding I need you to finish this story!
Lately I decided to put myself out there again and I must say,it hasn't been easy!!!! Haaa,Lagos men are wicked! Is it the one that started giving me attitude because according to him I don't look like my pictures(which is a first for me).I wasn't sure if I should laugh or cry,or if this was just some sort of flimsy excuse,or if I was truly looking like karishika in real life and fine mulato on Instagram.
Another bros,his wife gave me a rude awakening! A whole human being wife oh! Apparently he has been married for three years and successfully hid it from me(please don't ask me how,once I see fine boys my senses go to sleep),he should have atleast told me so I'll decide if I want to be a second wife or not voluntarily!
So many instances I can give but let me keep quiet before it starts to look like my village people are behind my Matter.I know for sure I have my shortcomings and I've used my stubborn head to chase away some good potentials, but it hasn't been easy.Finding a partner in Lagos is very tedious,especially when you are looking in the wrong places like social media!
If you are single and you live in Lagos,please join this queue,or perhaps I start a dating site *kikikiki* Gone are those days men stop women on the road to get their number,or get their numbers at public functions! They prefer to do their shopping on social media.This makes it hard for the average Lagos chic to find something reasonable I guess..
Who else misses the old fashion way of meeting new potentials? Did you meet bae on social media? Would you rather want someone out of social media or from social media,or you are part of the 'anyone oh as long as there's someone to cuddle' gang! Who else gets disappointed when they find a fine guys profile,you start liking his pictures,start forming wedding hashtag in your head and how to shoot your shot,then BOOM! You find a picture of his bae,with his long epistle..wo I would harvest my likes back,I'm that petty... Looks like every eligible and willing to get serious man is taken!
Whatever your option is my brethren,give your self time to grow and think about what you really want,frantically looking for a bae so you guys can stunt on the gram together can be a bit risky! Companionship is beautiful,love is sweeter but it's better to be alone than to be taken for granted or asking 'what are we' every two-two days from your supposed man,or sharing your woman with three other men. Date for you,date for your own happiness....
Lol Sis!! I can relate. I get the “you’re too hot to be single” etc, but knowing fully well most of these niggas are just here to play. You cant even tell right from wrong. And yes, we just might be chasing our potentials away. But nonetheless, delay is not denial. Our Mr right ll surely come��
ReplyDeleteLool all the 'you are too hot to be single' is still scope! They know what they want from you already! Delay is truly not denial,something good would come around eventually!
DeleteThis is the most interesting read
ReplyDeleteYou should write more often
Thank you,I'm working on that
DeleteI'm feeling like this at the moment too and sometimes i do wonder if i'm not chasing potentials away, but i can't go below my standards mahn. But i believe very soon, we will meet that special somebody.
ReplyDeleteSister!!!! I get the 'you are too picky' statement a lot,but why settle? There are people that are ending up with the kind of partner they really want so why would mine be different? It might look like forever but the best would come around eventually
