Disclaimer: Nothing sinister ( to my knowledge) happened. This is for shits and giggles and the culmination of my mogowo.Don’t come tell me about “ you should have seen the signs sis” bs... I’ll block you so fast. I’ve already laughed at myself so it’s fine. 😂
So I really had content for how it began vs how it’s going alas it was literally ending during “ how it’s going”
Let’s rewind.
One day one day I was playing on the biggest tv show #Lockdownhouseparty and during the traffic of congratulatory messages and what, not I get this dm:
I said let me try myself at something new cos on oath the DM’s probably isnt the place I’d look for a man...
Anyway the dm banter continued consistently everyday for a while and it flowed...you know when you’re waiting for the dm envelope to show there’s movement there...guys we discussed it all... food, family, work, past relationships, all angles were covered,guys we WERE VIBING!!
Anywho we move to Whatsapp and we carry on talking. The energy stays the same... Mind you at the time I was speaking to another gent too but this gent was winning by miles. He did everything right. A consistent gent. I kid you not. Guys I couldn’t fault him on anything.
Fast forward my birthday week. We’d now been speaking consistently from April to June... and lockdown regulations were starting to ease up... it was now time to meet the man physically... ok Shap we slat a drive to Moja to get food and he drops me back at home.I say ok I’m in...
I see him again later that week.
Guys don’t laugh at me.after our second date I leave his house come home and as I leave he gives me a set of his extra house keys...At first I was taken aback but was told not to overthink it.Ok fine Shap,I wasn’t going to use them nje anyway.
Three days later it’s my birthday and I have surprise drive by and picnic for four and mans even picked up my cake and got me the most beautiful gift. I didn’t suspect a thing. Does he not ask me out officially on my birthday. Cute.
We knew where this was going anyway.
We are now joling guys... but like binnekant. I tell you. The man is treating me ( and what I thought I him😂) like gold. A consistent king. Like everything. Guys we were JOLING ek se...music nights compiling playlists together, braais for two, Sunday in bed...
trash tv, sports and “ our shows”.
Taking turns to cook for each other. Drunk in love nights... Yoh everything guys. Lekker lekker times. Also remember this is the first time I’ve dated in three years so a lot was happening. But it was effortless.
Guys reassurance, good energy, vibes, love, great communication and all the positives were trending...love definitely lived here.I can’t even show ya’ll the pics but ya!
Then one day the vibe switch went off. You know that gut wrenching feeling in the pit of your stomach.
Everything started going downhill from here:
Guys what does that mean...??? Taken a decision... so what now?how do you go from the belly of mjolo to taking a step back... 100- zero real quick? I mean I get it you’re allowed... but really...
Then the nail in the coffin, mans came to see me one day at home... the chat was neither here nor there. Then as he was leaving he gently put his hand on my shoulder and I’ll never forget as I was walking him out, he turned and calmly said “ may I get my house keys back”
You know in the movies when you see the accident about to happen... ya that one. Guys it just got worse from there. The being off. The pet names were gone mans didn’t even wanna see me anymore. 😔
So I eventually asked mans on a video call face to face ...
