I was in one relationship then that really taught me many lessons.
My friends fought me concerning the girl and how I didn't love her and rather say bad things about her when I'm with them.
Well, it wasn't their fault.
Vera was beautiful, and she had what I like on her chest but,

Her attitude stinks.
One funny thing is, I get to be the only one to experience the bad side of her.
She's so good to other people.
One event I can't forget is when I was hosting my two friends on the weekend.
We got in late from an outing on Friday night, so I was tired.

I pulled off my shoes without arranging them, which she hated.
Shirt on the wardrobe handles and just went straight to bed without a shower. I was utterly exhausted.
On Saturday morning, she woke me up by sprinkling water on me. I woke up to her shouting at me.

She was complaining about how disorganized I was bla bla bla.
The whole morning was ruined with that.
Called me an old baby and different names.
Said so many horrible things, but well, I caused it.
By 12pm when my boys came around for the weekend hangout.
She started smiling and

Was in the happiest mood ever, cooked Jollof for my guys with fried chicken, we all played Fifa together and was just the life of the party.
I was even happy that something changed her mood.
By 7 pm, my friends left.
Madam went back to fool Karashika mood again.
She went into the

Room, took the duvet, threw it at me, and said I should sleep in the sitting room because she won't be able to stand my snoring after drinking some bottles of beers with my boys. She ended the night with little names calling as usual.
I took my duvet and slept at the lounge.

So the next day when I was telling my friends about what happened, of course, they didn't believe me.
Though the relationship wasn't like that at first, I used to be the breadwinner of the relationship till I lost my job and she had to sort bills till I get something going again.

At a point, I felt she was enjoying that she was the one sorting bills and all.
When she goes to work, she will drop cash as the usual Nollywood standard since I will be home, so I will have to cook & clean before she gets back.
I wanted to start using my car for Taxi at a point

She said she wouldn't allow me to embarrass her in public.
Things got really out of hand the day she slept over at a friend's place ( who I later realised was a man), and her only call to me was, "I'm sorry, I won't be able to make it home tonight" no explanation, nothing.

I didn't dare to ask since I didn't want to hear the names my parents forgot to give me.
When I found out she was cheating, she asked how I expected her to keep paying bills with her 50k Salary.
It was the most challenging moment of my life.
I couldn't leave the apartment

That we both paid for simply because I was broke.
I had to endure a series of verbal abuse and Domestic Violence, but no one care or tries to believe me anytime I talk.
Of course, the abuse wasn't physical, so I had no proof.
She was the opposite of all these to people around me.

When I couldn't endure it anymore, and I wasn't an orphan.
I packed my things one day when she was off to work.
Bought petrol with the food money she dropped and drove myself home to my parents.
That was the end of the relationship and it took me a long time to recover.
