I had this primary school friend that we were very close to then, but life happened and we lost contact. Both of us went on with our lives. I stumbled on her page on TikTok, and I sent her a DM. We exchanged pleasantries, but the vibe wasn’t there again, and I totally understood because it’s been long since we saw or talked. She collected my WhatsApp number, and we turned to status viewers. My boyfriend posted me on my birthday; she screenshot the post and sent it to my DM, and she was like, “Is that you?” I said yes, and she said okay. I was curious, so I had to check her chats on my boyfriend’s phone. That was when I realized that she was my boyfriend’s ex, and she was in his DM. She sent him a message under the birthday post and told him that I was her childhood friend, and she was like, “You left me to date my childhood friend.”
I smiled and dropped the phone. She wasn’t texting me, and even if I text her, the replies are always brief, so I locked up. I was with my man’s phone one day, and her message entered. Curiosity wan wound me, so I had to satisfy myself. She messaged him telling him she was around his place and that she wanted to come over, and he replied that he wanted to see her too. Mennn, I’ve been looking at him way differently because I’m not even blaming the girl right now. She owes me no loyalty, and I understand that’s why she has been keeping her distance from me so she won’t feel guilty later. But the thing is let your ex be your ex. Odaabo.
