I Thought She was the One
Left on Delivered
It is crazy how you think you have found the one in just two days on text.
In the internet world, talking to someone for two days is like knowing them for weeks. You feel like you can tell them anything, and they will understand. You are not afraid to show your true self because you know that they will accept you for who you are.
So, here’s what happened, I started talking to this girl on Snapchat. She struck me as different from any other girl I spoke to on the internet. She was open and honest with me, and I felt I could trust her. I liked her British accent and how she used sarcasm to make me laugh.
We talked for hours daily, and I started developing feelings for her. I know it sounds crazy, I had never felt this way about anyone before, and it was both exhilarating and scary.
She was half Nigerian and half Ghanaian and grew up in Nigeria. She was currently living in London, but she would move back to Nigeria soon. I was living in Nigeria, and we both agreed that long-distance relationships are complicated. But we were determined to make it work.
Two days after we started talking, she told me she liked me. I was surprised but happy. I felt the same way about her. I had never been in a relationship before and was excited to experience my first one with someone I had such strong feelings for.
We continued talking, and I was sure she was wifey-material as she knew how to cook my favorite Nigerian dishes and was okay with my love for anime.
I started making plans in my head, or rather I was forming useless imaginations. She would move back to Nigeria, and we would be together. I would introduce her to my parents as my girlfriend, and they would love her. We would eventually get married, and I would move to London to be with her.
Our relationship continued to progress, and we took things slowly as we wanted to get to know each other better before we took any big steps. We texted, talked on the phone, and Facetimed whenever we could. I was happy, and I thought she was too.
But then one day, out of the blue, she stopped responding to my messages. I tried reaching out to her on social media, but she blocked me. I was confused and hurt. I didn’t understand what had happened. We were doing so well, and I thought she felt the same way about me as I did about her.
I was disheartened. I had never felt this way before and didn’t know how to deal with it. I was tempted to reach out to her again, but I didn’t want to seem clingy or needy. So, I decided to give her some space and time to figure things out.
A few days later, she unblocked me on social media, and I saw that she had posted a picture of her with a girl. They were kissing, and I was so confused. I thought she was into guys. Had I been lied to this whole time?
I was hurt and betrayed. I didn’t know how to react. I wanted to reach out to her, but I was scared of getting hurt again. So, I decided to cut all ties with her and move on.
Until last week, I found the courage to message her and ask her what had happened. She told me she didn’t want to hurt me but wasn’t sure about her feelings for me. She said she needed time to figure things out and was sorry for how she handled the situation.
We are still talking, and I am giving her the space she needs. I am hopeful that someday she will figure out what she wants, and we can be together. But for now, I am trying to move on with my life and focus on the positive things.
Despite everything, I am grateful for the experience. I have never been in a serious relationship before, which has taught me much about myself. I know I deserve better and am looking forward to finding someone who loves and respects me for who I am.
