I’m really sad right now. In fact, I’m in tears. It all started when I moved from my aunt’s place back to my mum’s place. I’m currently staying with my mum along with other siblings, and I work as well. I’ve been treated badly both at work and at home. I’ve been enduring a lot, but I don’t give room for bullying because I’m stubborn as well. My mum always makes me uncomfortable, she’s always mean to me. She doesn’t make me feel like I’m a part of the family. As for my elder sis, she’s always there to support evil, and sometimes she seems jealous of me. Even my colleagues at my place of work, they’re very envious of me. They look for every means to bring me down, make me look like a f00l in front of others, always conniving even with the managers and gossiping about me. But in all areas, God dey pass them. That aside, I noticed whenever I quarrel with my mum or sis,
people in the environment stand around to listen and use the things they say to me as a topic they carry around. They started calling me a w•tch in the area, thinking I was the one causing the problems in the family, not knowing what I was going through and enduring. The married women who are the organizers of gossip are the ones giving the boys in the area news to carry around. Funny enough, almost all boys in my area are weed smokers, they hang around with no job, nothing. So, they have the avenue to gossip a lot, especially when they go to these women’s shops to buy things on credit. I’m introverted, I don’t mingle in my area. I don’t have friends. I only greet the women I see around when going to work. But I decided to be friends with one guy I discovered is more educated and civilized than others. That’s what triggered this all. They started sl*t-shaming me behind my back.
They didn’t confront me, but they were making jest of me whenever they saw me passing by. My dear Rantandtalkz family, this has gone beyond my imagination to the extent that even the original sl*ts laugh and make mockery as well. Even though these people see me going to work almost every day, I barely have time for myself. They decided to ruin my reputation to the extent that they wanted to make sure I wouldn’t get married. It has spread to the extent that I walk in shame to work. All those Danfo drivers have informed each other on this matter. At any bus stop, I’ve seen, they create awareness by making mockery faces so that those in that environment will notice. All Iyana Paja now, I’m known for what I didn’t do. It has extended to Ikeja, even at my place of work, everyone knows. I almost lost my job because the manager was saying I was destroying the image of the organization since I represented them outside.
But my image is ruined already, they all know where I work. Any form of shame I encounter outside, they come back to give info at Iyana Paja. Even in the marketplace when I didn’t steal or kill anyone. Worst of all, my family knows about this. They’re not telling me anything. I even confronted them, and they denied it. How long will this go on, people I don’t know, people I’ve never seen? They all know me anywhere I go in Lagos. I always see people making mockery faces at me. I don’t know what I did to Abesan Ipaja boys. I need help, they want to push me to suicide. I’m depressed, I need help.
