I dated a guy in the university and man was always complaining about how I just buy myself things without including him in my plans.
I knew fully well we were both students and we work hard to get stuffs so I saw no reason to disturb or ask him for stuffs but he insisted so when I wanted to upgrade my phone to an iPhone back then, I told him but I didn’t have money for a new one. I told him I’ll be getting a used iPhone.
I had over half of the money which I told him when he asked and he said to give him a week to get the whole money.
I was shocked cos we both work the same job in school and it took me two salaries to get the one I’ve saved. I asked him how but he said not to worry that I shouldn’t buy it yet.
I have always considered it irrelevant to ask a man for things I can get myself but bro seemed super excited to get this for me so I just let it slide.
True to his words, a week later he brought me a used iPhone and I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was super happy and asked how he managed to pull it off. He claimed he knows someone who sells and he just paid part of the money with promise to pay the rest.
I offered to add my own to it and bro denied totally, said not to worry that he wants to do this one thing for me.
I loved him more that day and I totally prayed for him. Out of excitement we almost had sex for the first time 😂😂 but I stopped because I felt I was exchanging my virginity for an iPhone 😂😂.
He was disappointed but he respected my decision as always.
Few weeks later, the phone started acting up and I told him about it. He insisted I wait for him cos he was out of town but he was scheduled to return the following week.I couldn’t stay without using a phone so I took it to a repairman off campus and when the guy saw the phone he acted strangely and asked how I got it. I proudly told him my boyfriend bought it for me and he said “awwn”
He said to come back the next day for the phone but when I went there, he gave another excuse and he continued for two days even after I told him he shouldn’t bother with the repair.
My boyfriend got back and I explained things to him, he was upset that I didn’t let him get back before taking the phone.
After plenty plea, he agreed to follow me to the man’s shop and on getting there, the man started asking bunch of questions about where he got the phone from and the likes.
It was like film when, after acting all offended about the question, he began to beg when the man threatened to involve the police.
Apparently, oga had stolen the phone from the repairman’s sister. He claimed he unplugged it from where she paid to charge.
I have never been so embarrassed in my entire life as much as I was that day. The insult was plenty! They even called me names and claimed I pushed him to it. I collected my SIM card and warned him to disappear from my life.
I threatened to embarrass him if he ever appears in front of me again and bro, he never did!
