It’s already an interesting one my folks🤣! Mehn do I have the post to kick us off! Lol!
Okay so, late last year, one of my girls gave me the following gist! She was on her way to a cousin’s wedding when she ran into another cousin (who was going as well) in the Delta Airlines business class lounge. Excited, they shouted, hugged and caught up.
Soon, it was time to board their flight so they went to their gate. At the gate, a girl walked up to him [her cousin], gave him a quick kiss and a hug. He introduced her as his girlfriend and they exchanged pleasantries. While boarding, my friend watched in shock as the girl stayed back while she and her cousin proceeded to their business class seats.
“Oby, I sensed what was happening but I didn’t want to believe my thoughts! So I kept quiet and observed. Eventually, the girlfriend made her way into the plane, and proceeded to Economy! I watched my idiot-cousin wave her bye and continued to get comfortable in his seat like it was nothing! So I went to curse him out!”
My girl: Bia! Have you turned into those Oyibo guys that all of the girls in this family curse out??
Her cousin: How?
My girl: Why the hell are you on the same flight with your girl, in business class while she’s in economy?!
Her cousin: Shey, she wanted to come to wedding? I had already bought my ticket. She bought what she could afford.
My girl: Oh okay, so she’s just some random girl. You’re not serious about her then. So why are you bringing her to a family wedding??
Her cousin: I’m very serious about her o. She’s moving in with me in January when her lease is up.
My girl: So why aren’t you in Economy with her? You two should be together! It’s all part of the travel bonding experience. You failed this one Emy! I’m disappointed! And you’re a Naija guy!
Context: Nigerian men, are KNOWN to spoil/take care/sponsor/SPOIL (twice for emphasis) their women. I want lie, I was disappointed when I heard this story also… I wanted to write a post about it back then but things got crazy busy for me so I didn’t. Didn’t even think much of until-
I was catching up with this same friend who just came back from a holiday trip with her new man.
While looking at the photos and videos from her trip, I noticed that my girl’s man wasn’t in her flight photos (and there were a lot of them).
“Oh did you guys take separate flights over?” I asked nonchalantly.
“Err err no. We were on the same flight.” She replied uncomfortably.
Before I could think twice-
“Obiageli see! Before you judge me, I don’t flight Economy and we both decided to buy our own tickets and he’d cover hotel cost.”
“So you flew business class and left him in Economy?” I asked cracking up! “Please how is this different from-“
“It’s very different biko! My cousin Emeka is a guy! A Naija guy for that matter!!! His, was unacceptable! He should know better.”
“But you shouldn’t?” I replied. “ You know I’m only on your case because YOU gave him hell when he did THE EXACT SAME THING. Now you are saying that it’s okay because you’re a girl? Is that it?”
“I don’t see why I should compromise my comfort for a man! If anything, this should make him step up his game! Oby, you should be happy for me! This is a powerful moment for women! The ONE TIME the double standard works in our favor!”
*scratching my braids* “Girl… I don’t know…”
Ladies, gents PLEASE let me know what you all think! Is my friend right? Is this double standard justifiable? What of her cousin? Does this even matter?
Tell me tell me tell me!!! I told her I’ll put this up and we’re curious.
I told y’all 2019 was already interesting LMAO!!!
I am soooo excited about more scintillating conversations, better debates, MORE EXPOSURE and SO MUCH FUN at The Wawa-New Yorker this 2019! So help me God! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Happy New Year everyone… Thank you so much for reading, leaving comments and forwarding to everyone you know lmao!
Love always,
Oby!
Oby,
I recently found out my so call boyfriend was cheating on me with other girls. He says he loves me but yet he still entertaines other females and refers to them as just friends. He has disappointed me so much in the past and I keep expecting him to change.
I’m sorry to hear that dear. I pray God gives you peace and guidance.
I like this girl as a friend but, she really likes me more than a friend. I don’t know how to tell her I’m talking to other girls and sleeping with some of them. She gives me the attention I like but, I’m not attracted to her.I spend time with her because she is a nice person and we have fooled around. We are trying the whole long distance thing but, I’m still leaving my options open. This sounds bad but, I don’t want to hurt her and I want us to remain friends. I know physical attraction doesn’t matter but yet, I find myself asking people what they think of her appearance.
😂😂😂 @ Ego’s comment. Yooo this is hilarious. I don’t even know what to say! 😅
That’s why I was scratching my hair! Lol!
If they didn’t meet new meat at the wedding, they should manage each other
LMAO!!!!! This can’t be life😩🤣🤣🤣
It’s funny how people ignore signs in relationships
Ok
Ego, a friend of my mine got invited to a wedding in Europe last year by a guy who has a girlfriend in the states. So this really happens. Girls just need to pay attention to their gut feeling just saying. Especially when he is not that into you or using you to pass time until he finds someone else.
