Dear MIMsters: Given My History With Relationships, Should I Settle For Mr. Oga?
I am 28 years old will be turning 29 in February. Given my history with relationships, should I settle for Mr. Oga?
For over two years, I have been off and on different relationships, probably because they don’t meet the standard of my ex or I discover they already have a lady in their lives.
Four months into the relationship, he called me at night via a video call, (he lives in Ghana while I live in Nigeria) and told me he has been worried about something. He said that he loves me so much and doesn’t want to lose me because of his secret he’s been keeping. Oga later opened up and told me that he has a son who’s a few months old. That night was the longest night in my life.
He called several times telling me he’s no longer with his baby mama and all sorts of stories. I was already in love with him, so I decided not to break up with him.
He invited to come over to Ghana to celebrate Christmas and I accepted his invitation. At his home, I couldn’t find any trace of the woman and her son but he showed me where she lives. It is an hour, 30 minutes drive from his. Three days later, he told me that the woman was visiting Nigeria to be with her family.
