The Date 1

Peter's request for over a month has been to take me out on a date. My reply has always been NO.

But Ann thinks differently- he might be a good guy on dread, who drinks and smokes. But he is human, if you think he is a beast, you should be his beauty (her words).


But that might not be the reason behind rejecting his proposals.😣😣


Dinner was 7 pm @Micheal Garden Restaurant. I don't think l should go, but here l was searching for what to wear. It's less than an hour for the dinner and I'm overwhelmed? 


I hate being late so l wore my second option. I arrived at the restaurant, and there he was so cute in a blue suit and weaved dread.

 He got up with a smile and when l drew closer he gave me a big hug. You look beautiful he stuttered. I smiled but it was well planned, l needed him to have his eyes on me.

 I wore a red criss-cross double-slit gown, tight and above the knee just as he likes it. He has never seen me like this before, l know he is shocked to his bones and l was thrilled.

As soon as l sat, the waiter didn't let me breathe. She wore a smile and handed us a menu.

I wasn't hungry and didn't want to order anything expensive because l didn't want to hurt his pocket and heart in one night. So I went for Pizza and smoothie, while he ordered seafood and water.

You know that could be us he said starting at two love birds. He proposed and she said yes with tears. 

Yes, that could be us taking pictures of two love birds who will soon tie the knot.

Have you always been sarcastic?

I shrugged.

Speaking about us, what kind of man do you want to spend the rest of your life with?

Me: my dream man (I spent a few minutes, contemplating if l should be cold-hearted:  tell him he isn't my dream man or l give him the honor of figuring it out himself?)

My dream man should be open to unlearn and relearn

He smiled, l think he checked that

One who accepts my past, love my present, and inspires my future.

I think he checked that too

He must be cute

He gave a big smile, sure he is.

He must be spontan... (Peter interrupted)

(With a straight face) Spontaneous in what sex or life?


To be continued.

What Happens When we Attach Pain

  We know people that are currently in a toxic relationship, you’ve heard them talk about leaving the relationship but they never leave. Maybe they are in for financial benefits? Or perhaps it’s just love? And what about those people that hate their jobs but won’t quit? Why complain when they know what to do? If we give ourselves enough reason to hate someone we deeply love, we will wake up one morning and we are filled with hatred towards that person likewise if we want to fall in love with someone. What changed? “Enough reason to back up their decision” They haven’t convinced themselves with good enough painful reasons as to why they should leave. They only think of the pain they will derive after they leave. If the pain of leaving is greater than that of staying, they will stay. We weigh options and go for the less painful one. Remember when you thought you would die when your ex broke up with you? Look at you now doing just fine. You’ve convinced your heart with bitter feeling...

The Dangers of Making Assumptions

Thoughts can be deceiving!!!!!! One thing I've learned from experience is to never ASSUME. To assume someone knows what to do/say To assume someone knows exactly what I’m thinking or how I’m feeling. To assume what I think about someone or something is correct. To assume people will treat me how I want to be treated without demanding it. Assumptions are not Communication and can be misleading. An assumption is a vague vision of what's on the other person's mind. Assumptions are not facts, never start a fight, relationship, or business based on assumption. By communicating we understand each other. Most relationship end due to lack of communication- they assume their partner should know what’s on their mind even before they say the word and if their partner can’t do that it becomes “he/her doesn’t know me well” Like you, everyone is sorting out a lot of things. They aren’t saying a lot because they don’t want to be an additional burden to you. If you’re mad people aren’t se...

A Poetic Formal Letter to MEMAC Ogilvy

Listening to Rory Sutherland (vice-chairman of the Ogilvy) sparked an infinite interest in marketing in a young writer/social media marketer who’s fantasizing about both of us getting married and building a home together. I am thrilled to say I want to be a part of you (an unpaid internship) position at MEMAC Ogilvy Dubai , United Arab Emirates.  I am passionate about the new meaning of marketing, making marketing Psychological rather than logical. I would love to channel my skills as a writer and Marketing Intern. I'm not going to presume that you don't give a damn about the other ladies I've been with. So, while in Nigeria, I was in a relationship with a Tech company ( JD Lab ) as a writer and social media marketer. I don't typically do this, however, I became intimate with another lady (TEDxMinna) as a writer and social media Team Leader. I swear it wasn't long. I was in charge of managing the social media profiles and producing material for them. These women an...
