Number 3 is so true.My dad doesn't vocalize such feelings but I know his kids mean the world to him.

Xoly:

That's one thing about african parents, they hardly tell you that they love you... and hugging you is another story, unless you guys are celebrating some good news

baralatie:
xoly! this one that you are going lovi_lovi.......

.

baralatie:
the things you wrote are half truths

Masonkaycares:
Felt dizzy reading this.

Xoly:

Why?

Masonkaycares:
Am so sick and tired of hearing about love. It's beginning to irritate me. Damn

Biglittlelois:
Your number 2 is so true,

I have a friend, she was introduced to a guy by her cousin, they both hit it off the very first time they talked on phone, according to her, seeing his picture made her fall the more, same with him, but there was a clause, this guy said he is a weird and complicated guy, he doesnt call, text or chat, she tried to end/stop talking to him several times, he refused, in fact he pushed for them to see several times, she refused cos she doesn't really like the connection thingy, to the extent that the guy became discouraged and didn't want to see her anymore, after much convincing, they finally get to see, the feelings they both had for each other never changed,

All of a sudden things changed, this is a guy that first professed love to her, tells her she has no other choice but to stay with him, always tell her she should hold on to him, he suddenly stopped calling, chating on whatsapp, she was always the one calling and chating up, she said she knew something was wrong, pressed him to talk about it several until he finally did, he said it was work issue, that she isn't his priority right now, but he still loves and respect her, and doesnt want anything to happen to what they have together, yet he refused to change,

She had to take the bull by the horn one day, she asked him if he will like her to move on from him, he didn't reply, she persisted, until he finally said, she is the one getting things wrong, that's when she realised that he really doesnt want a relationship with her, she had to delete his number from her phone and whatsapp, but didn't block him, it's been one week since then, she secretly wants him to reach out cos she really misses him terribly, to the extent that she came crying to my plad this evening to tell me all these, and majorly because she doesn't know he's number off hand so she can call him or text,

Some guys are low key emotionally manipulative, why collect the number of someone that wants a relationship that'll lead to the altar, then toil with her feelings?

Xoly:

Oh that's sad.
I am currently in a similar relationship, there's a girl that is throwing herself on me, but I don't feel the same way for her, and I don't know how to tell her about it — because it might make her feel bad...
We are not together anymore, we only get in touch through social media, but I am planning to ignore her and probably create a new WhatsApp account.
But this girl is so beautiful, my friends always say that she is the most beautiful girl in school, and that's true, but I still don't feel the same way for her.

Xoly:

Okay, but the truth is that I didn't slept with her...
There wasn't a problem when we were together, but immediately we became world's apart, everything changed.
I think I have problem with long distance relationship.
So what do you think I should do, I should block her, right?

Stacyomolola:


Long distance hmmm
So u guys are having trust issues?

If ya tired and u are sure karma won't hit u back, then back out, stop giving her emotional stress, with time she go dey alright

Change ur country of origin to any of the Oyibo countries where u will be hugged at will. Learn to appreciate what ur people can offer.

Biglittlelois:



It truly is, I think I'll create a thread on this, I need more insights and perspective on it.

baralatie:

it is called love bombing where a partner goes on the offensive to shower affections at an early stage of a relationship to win trust,favour of the other only to suddenly withdraw such attention inorder to use it as a bargain.it is usually a narcissistic situation which I pray people should not find themselves

Biglittlelois:
Your number 2 is so true,

MhisTahrah:
I've read something like this on here before, very weird stuff.

Xoly:

Yeah, please do

Biglittlelois:



Done that already.

Biglittlelois:


Annoyingly weird.

Biglittlelois:



Trust yeah, but favour? She said they've not had sex, only seen once, so I don't think it's favour, I think the guy has emotional/commitment issues.

MhisTahrah:
They literally fvck with one's head.
