E gba mi fa!


The thing wey single girl eye go see, no be small thing o!

I recently met this "Uncle" who works next to my office. Someone franctically called me like it was a life or death matter and i looked up to see this short elderly man, so out of respect, didnt know what he was going to say, i went to meet him, na im tory start o!

He started telling me of how he has been seeing me for a long time and he had really liked me and been praying one day he meets me formally. Where im dey see me? For Mama calabar spot (a canopy covered spot where office folks eat just behind my office). he said he always sees me and my colleague come eat there often. why im no come meet me since that time? He didnt want to be rude etc, etc (he no even say make e try pay for my meal once, shio!)

Why wont he like me, afterall, i get big front and back, u had to see his eyes roming and roving thru his glasses, oniranu!


So he introduced himself, took my number (i still dont know why i did that) and na im we begin love;

This Uncle makes me laff ehn! He said he spent all of his life in lagos and so he considers himself to still be one Omo Boy, young boy. He plays all the latest music in town and uses slangs so i can know that He calls me baby.

Now theres a difference btw Baby and Baby. For those of us who had a bit of razz with butter while growing up, u will remember how they call dolls "baby". Thats exactly how he calls me o!


The Uncle is short and probably thinks of himself as one very correct bobo, the man can pose!

Ntywayz, he has been calling me o, offering to drop me everywhere, i should feel free to call him so we can hang out etc, etc.

Abeg, where i for follow am go biko?

Only recently, he came up with the idea of him being in love and that he is afraid that i will break his heart one day etc, etc. love ke?! see this big mumu o!

When girl sit down jeje that she no dey do married men, see the kind issues wey dey confront them. theres even nothing to milk dry in this short Uncle o!

I have plans for him sha, by the time i carry 3 of my friends follow am go Biobak and we take half of his life savings chop fresh fish and snail, and go to Ceddi plaza to buy make up and watch moveis, he will automatically delete my number, agbaya oshi!

i will still leave him around for a week, he dash me 5k last friday, no be bad thing now, abi?


which brings me to ask: Why on earth do married men cheat?! (Jamb question abi?) The things these agbayas are ready to do for small small girls, their wives will have to practically seek the face of God, fast and then prepare their best dish just to ask for whatever! While these same men are mere toys to some other girls, u flash them and they are ready to come from Gwagwalada to Wuse! O ga o!


I know this is a popular topic and we it in the office recently and my colleague said she doesnt wanna know if her husband cheats, as long as she doesnt know about it and he hasnt stopped doing his responsibilities, she doesnt mind. this is what most women think, what u dont know wont hurt u etc, etc.

i havent been able to accept this fact o, its just so unnacceptable! what do y'all think?


Onto Private Matters:

Mr. Nice.

Again.

Back again with full force!


I think am done with anyone trying to make me feel guilty. Nice is such a wonderful and nice and caring and all those things guy. I just happen not to like him, ok, thats not totally true, i can barely stand the guy (see older post on Jacob and Esau).

recently i started feeling weird like: am i doing the right thing? should i just manage? he is a good guy ready to be everything for me etc but i dont have to try to like someone am dating, like should be the first thing!


He still came over last nite, we went over the WHOLE saga again (he just called now, he is coming to see me, again!).

happily, i discovered something last nite, i have always known he is much older than me but yesterday, i discovered that he is SO older than me, in fact, not within my age bracket AT ALL! so i can gladly turn him down even in my mind and not feel guilty about it. abi now?

Miss Definitely Maybe said...

I do not condone cheating
I think if someone cheats
they do not love you nor respect you period!!.
I wouldnt turn a blind eye to cheating, one should definitly do something about it, it might not be leaving the relationship but could be talking it through, seeing a mariage counsellor etc. turning a blind eye is a no no , no wonder Aids is rampant in Africa

Apinke said...

@MDM: we so agree on this, i have never been able to find an excuse for anyone cheating, its just so wrong. annoyingly, when u say this, other people just feel u r from planet Mars or something, its just not fair!

@chari: my dear,hmm, if i manage to like Oga Nice, and manage to date him, who will help me manage to do the other things that come with the relationship which i wont be able to do? bad deal jo.
