Dear MIMsters: After My Divorce, Everything Was Going on So Well Until This Happened

After my divorce, everything was going so well until this happened. Here is my story….

There’s this guy I dated back in 2013. His name is Lekan. Lekan and I loved each other so much but we broke up because he’s a military personnel. My parents felt military personnels usually don’t have time for their wives.

In 2015, I got married to Kola but left the abusive marriage in 2017. Somehow, fate brought Lekan and I back. I asked why he didn’t get married after we broke up and he said because he hasn’t yet found anyone fit to be called his wife.

I told him about my divorce and that I am not yet ready to start dating anyone but he stood by me, all through the moment of my pains. He placed me on a monthly allowance, provides all I need for my son and I. Then he brought up the issue of marriage and I told him to wait because I want to enroll for a MSC.

He agreed he was going to wait and introduced me to his family as his fianceé and his colleagues call me madam. He doesn’t hide anything from me and has flooded my pictures on Instagram account where he professing his undying love for me.

What has broken my heart now is this: He came visiting and left for Ilorin to see his folks, only for a woman to call me on the phone, begging me to please leave her husband alone. She claims that they’ve been married since 2014 and that he has even impregnated another woman in 2015 whom he married in a low key way. But her husband to her that he loves me and she can only beg me to please leave him for her.

I called him immediately and he started stuttering over the phone begging me to forgive him. I’m heartbroken and confused. Please help me here.
