“Why I Broke Off My Engagements.” OAP Destiny Amaka Reveals
Cool FM media personality, Destiny Amaka in a lengthy post on her Instagram page accompanied by a photo from the engagement in Paris reveals she was once engaged and what led to the break up.
Amaka who got engaged in 2011, further said that she had to let her man go when she found out that it wasn’t going to work out between them, adding that although it didn’t work out, she is still a firm believer in love.
Amaka also revealed that during the entire preparation for their traditional wedding, her fiancé and her weren’t talking to each other.
Her post reads:
”Broken engagement is better than broken marriage. Paris 2011, he popped the question, I saw the ring???? my mums face, my friends and family who flew in cheering for joy. The money that was spent, the effort from family and friends.
No one would know the heated argument we had few hours before this pic was taken. Fast forward few months, during the entire preparation for our traditional wedding we weren’t speaking, but they will tell you its normal, it happens. Its not true!
It takes immense courage to walk away from something you’ve been building for years. I was young, won’t say much. @nickiminaj tweets few weeks back hit close to home. No regrets! No hate, I strongly believe he gave his best, and with that knowledge its up to you to determine whether their best is good enough for you.
Gratitude????????#throwbackthursday my soul craves for a little bit more from life???? I gave the ring back, the cars, the house, our investments all! And with my little savings I was hiding in my friends account I moved to Lagos 2012 started from scratch, with no friends or family members I really knew???????? what a journey!
I still believe in love and best believe I won’t be settling for anything less than team work!????????❤ I know my worth???????? and yes it may scare some away, but the right man will know how to bring out the best in you not the worst.
