Boys, be wicked. Girls are Liars.

Almost every man on the streets is wicked. Let me just fling that “almost” away and say all men should be wicked. Any small opportunity that you get, make sure to put pepper inside girl's eyes and use their tears to wash your bum bum. Do that for me today, please.

Before I start my story, I’ll like you to know that I don’t hate girls in any way. I believe the woman is the best invention in the whole of human existence.
However, I have also come to realize that the first thing every girl learns perfectly immediately after she’s born is how to lie to a guy.

I started dating (proper dating) immediately after secondary school. I was 19 then. My girlfriend was a year younger than me. We were both not in the university yet and life was good.

I wasn’t earning anything then and fortunately, she was not demanding much from me. A few weeks into our relationship, I got a job at a rug store and started earning a little money. I started taking my girlfriend out on low-budget dates, surprising her with small gifts and our love grew stronger.

Apart from the haram intercourse, she also gave me some emotional support by telling me how much she loved me and also being with me whenever I was not feeling well (which happened frequently).

My girlfriend and I were together for three years. We lived in the same neighborhood so we were mostly together, except when we were both in school. Even in school, she would take four hours bus to my school to spend the weekends. I spoke with her mother and other family members frequently and likewise did she.

Whilst we were together, I never doubted her loyalty. Even though most of my friends thought she was too beautiful for me alone, I trusted her.

However, I was wrong about her fidelity in our relationship. All the time. I only found out after three years because I never deem it necessary to test or even question her never existed loyalty. I found out she was in a serious relationship with me and nine others after she had done playing her game.

My girlfriend of three years went to visit her mother in another city (which she always does) and overstayed her visit. Only for me to find out that my girlfriend is now married to a guy whom she made me believe was her cousin throughout our three years of dating. I found out three weeks after she got married.

What’s more unbelievable is that during her stay in her mom’s place, there was not a single day that we did not speak morning and evening. I even spoke with her mom a few times. We did not fight, not even an argument. Just a visit to her mom’s and a month and a few days later, a secondary school friend of mine broke the news of I was never prepared to listen to me. And when I confronted her, all she did was cry and tell me more lies about how she was forced to marry that guy.

This incident happened two years ago. Only God knows how I survived it. I was broken, and even now, I can never trust a woman again. I still believe in love and relationships and I’ve dated a couple of times afterwards.

However, I also believe that anything can happen to any two people in a relationship. Until you are married, nothing shows your girlfriend or boyfriend is absolutely yours.
