My situationship story
During my early days at the university, I came home for a short break which later resulted in the extended COVID-19 break.
Then I went to church on Sunday and boom, there was this new guy in the church.
Don't ask me if I knew all the new guys in church because this one was different.
I mean, this guy was fine (I can't even lie) elegant, prayerful, well-reserved, God-loving, and all.
Yes, he had quite the characteristics I looked for in a man.
He even loves children and respects women. 𝑨𝒘𝒘𝒘, 𝒎𝒚 𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒈𝒖𝒚!
So one thing led to another, and before you know it, we became good friends. We started chatting online when I went back to school.
You know that feeling when your crush is also crushing on you? Sweet!
Then days went into weeks and months and over a year...
And all of a sudden, we became something more than friends.
Okay, take that sex thought out of your head.
Of course, I'm a Jesus girl, so premarital sex is non-negotiable.
So this is what I meant by something more than friends. We began:
• Sharing intimate info
• Talking to each other every day
• Praying together (prayer warriors, indeed. 😂)
• And basically doing everything people in courtship should.
I had never been so vulnerable all my life.
But I thought I found the right one for me so that didn't.
Until that fateful day...
I went to his place (not the first time, of course), but that was the first time I saw that picture hanging on the wall and saw the picture of another lady on his sitting wall.
And when I insistently asked who she was, I got the most heartbreaking answer.
Yes, you can already guess it. "She's my girlfriend, I wish I met you first, Bla Bla Blah." You know how the heartbreaking tale goes.
"So what have I been doing with this guy all this while?" I thought
I've been in a SITUATUATIONSHIP all along.
It took me a while before I discovered that it wasn't entirely his fault.
I only assumed we had something when there was nothing. After all, he never asked me out.
