My boyfriend has been giving me a premium headache. The only reason I’m still with him is that I’m just so in love with him. I can’t help myself. This guy has never really gifted me anything before, except once when he gave me N250k for something that I badly needed to do. The money for that stuff was N500k, so I had to borrow the remaining amount from my mom. Even on my birthday, he totally forgot my special day. But on his own birthday, even when I didn’t have money, I started saving little by little to get him a gift. There’s nothing I haven’t done for this man. When he didn’t have money, I went as far as paying his rent, making sure he didn’t lack fuel for his car, and even providing food in his house because, at that time, his salary was delayed for several months. Now that he’s okay, he has been acting up unnecessarily. This man won’t call me, won’t text me, and most times when I call, he’ll say he’ll call me back, but he never actually does. When I complain, he says it’s not intentional. I felt really lonely in the relationship, so I decided to start replying to my DMs. Now, there’s this white guy that likes me. He’s everything my boyfriend is not.
Mind you, I told him I have a boyfriend, but he doesn’t care. He treats me well and gives me all the attention I need. He’s even helping me look for a remote job in a tech company in the U.S. so I can start earning hourly in USD because I once complained to him about being overworked and underpaid. Then, there’s this other guy who has been on my case even before I met my boyfriend. I started texting him back too because of loneliness, and he has been very intentional towards me. He listens, just like the other guy from Florida. They’re both very intentional, but now the problem is, they’re both coming to Nigeria this year. The white guy has never been to Africa before, but he’s already making plans to come see me, while the other one is a Nigerian who stays in Sweden. Mind you, I’m not dating any of them. In fact, they both know I have a boyfriend and are aware that the only reason I’m talking to them is that my boyfriend doesn’t have time for me. I don’t want to leave my boyfriend because he’s the only person I truly love, but why can’t he just act right?! All I’m asking for is love and attention. Why do the people we love put us through the most hell?
