It’s crazy when you have everything working for you, but you feel something is missing. Three years ago, I left Nigeria for Canada. I was doing okay, had two cars, and rented a 3-bedroom apartment on the island. I’m not perfect; I cheated on my girl, and she cheated as well during our first year of dating. We were meant to have an introduction ceremony, but I changed my mind, broke up with her, and blocked her because I needed to focus on saving and making money here. It’s been three years now, and I must say I am doing very well financially. I have the money to date anyone I want, but I really want my ex back. She doesn’t even know I listed her as my dependent on my visa application. The crazy thing is, for the past three years, I didn’t check up on her. Last week, a female friend asked me to support her business, and I sent her N500k.
I’ve known her all my life, but she hasn’t really done anything meaningful for me. This girl complained bitterly about how the situation is at the moment, and immediately, I started thinking about this ex of mine a lot. She’s still in Nigeria, not married, and I feel really bad because I could give her everything she ever wanted, like the life I had promised her. Now I’m stuck. I know her pastor and sister were all disappointed with me. I don’t know if I should text her back. One thing I know is that she’s not living her best life, and I could give her that life, even if I don’t end up with her. I just want to see her enjoy my money, even if it’s just buying her a small car or setting up a business. But I’m ashamed to even text her. I know she has probably moved on. So, I’m just stuck on what to do! Should I just leave her and face my life, or at least try reaching out?
