We’ve been friends on this space since 2019 but had only exchanged pleasantries twice. Fast forward to this year, 3rd of February precisely, I made a random post about the fact that “men should learn to show emotions and not see it as a weakness”. He dropped a comment and came to my dm to further explain his point.
We got talking and finally got to ask questions about ourselves. You know that moment when you chat in-depth with someone for the first time and it feels like you both have known for years right? That was the case! Throughout that day, we were glued to our phones, “getting to know ourselves”.
Fast forward to when he declared his “feelings” for me, I laughed at it and shoved it to the side because being in a relationship wasn’t part of my 2023 plans. He kept pushing and I kept running! I made up a thousand and one reasons to say “NO”, but I guess he knew what he wanted and stuck to it till it became his!
On the 1st of October, after being friends for 8 months, I finally said “Yes” to being in a RELATIONSHIP! I didn’t know things were going to be pretty fast! He wasn’t willing to delay one bit! On the 3rd of November, he proposed! And of course, I already had my “confirmations” about him and there wasn’t any need to say Yes!
Cheers to Mr Tee’s prayer, on the 25th of August, “to gain acceptance before me”😂😂😂 It happened! Today, we publicly let you all in on our love story! It’s the road to “BecomingYours” already 🤭 . This love story is the best you’ll ever witness😁😁
N/B: we attended the same secondary school and were in the same class but we didn’t know ourselves then because he left later. Last month, we found out and laughed hard 😂😂
On the 27th of November, I was legally bonded with MINE under the Marriage Act!
As a lawyer, I understand the legal implications of being recognized by the Court of Law as “ONE”, and trust me, I couldn’t feel happier than saying “YES” to sealing this under the Law!
This love is the one that I can describe as “SUDDENLY” and I will do everything, under God, to preserve it! It’s the type you taste and never want to starve your taste buds of it! It’s the type you embrace and never want to let go of!
THIS IS MY DREAM COME TRUE!
