You Never Can Tell (All that glitters is not gold).
I have a friend who has been in a relationship for five years. Well, it is a very sweet relationship. You know there are times when one or two things will make you and someone get close knowingly or unknowingly. We got close and we became good friends. She comes to my apartment after class or I go to hers. That's when we were still in school. This girl is a relationship freak. She could not even go a hour without talking about her man. She loved him too much and they were always communicating. Someone like me who did not have a relationship then will begin to pray to have that kind of relationship. Well, I was never jealous of her even though she had the best relationship among all of my friends.
On the guy's birthday, she bought a lot of things and we went to his place together to present some gifts that my friend bought for him. We had a nice time and that was all about the relationship. After a while, they began to have misunderstandings frequently and whenever I asked her what happened, she would just tell me in a way that I would not understand what she meant. Let's just assume that she does not want me to know what is going on in her relationship which is normal. You know it would not make sense to poke nose into people's relationship especially when you are not called. Interfering in other people's relationships when you were not told to do so may bring about disrespect and you may not like it.
After a fee weeks, she started telling me that she would break up with her guy. I asked her why and she said she was going to tell me when the time comes.
One night, when I was about to sleep, I got a call from her telling me that she's fed up of the relationship and all. She told me that her man is stingy and does not even try to get things for her. Normally, she shows us a lot of things and tells us that her man bought it for her but she revealed that it was all lies that the so called guy does not buy anything for her.
She even mentioned that on her birthday, all the things she told us that the guy bought for her was all lies. She mentioned that she bought everything with her money. The guy works and he has money so I wonder why he's finding it difficult to give my friend money but why has she been lying to us. Why has she been lying to us about the fake things that her boyfriend bought for her? We thought it was all real until she became fed up of the whole thing and decided to break up with him.
Honestly, she's not the kind of girl who is always wanting a man to do everything for her but the little things matter. Do you get?
It was then I realized that all that glitters is not gold. You never can tell what people are going through in the relationship. There are even some women who are responsible for cateting to every financial activities in the house and the man of the house will come out to act like he is the one doing everything whereas the man in the family is the one who is supposed to be responsible for that.
When you see something glittering and shining outside, you never can tell what is inside it. It is better to make your research before you think of praying to have that same thing. It may not be relationship. It can be anything.
All that glitters is not gold!
Woah...I was laughing all through! A man that loves you will spend money on you no matter how difficult his condition is. She's in love and she doesn't have the clear mind to think about that situation. In essence, the man whom she portrayed to you isn't who you see him to be. I learned something anyways cause it struck me that I am just realizing that my friend is almost in the same situation.
Hahaha
It is very funny to me too
Why was she lying to us?
Sometimes what we think is true love or something that will overcome difficulties is not quite what we think. That happens a lot, of relating to someone that at that moment we thought he was an incredible and differentiated person, but then the coexistence comes and shows exactly the opposite, it is really complicated, but, in any case, it is a learning experience for better choose a possible next person.
Great post!
Thank you so much for visisting!
This is just real life. You'll stay outside and be jealous of other people, not knowing what goes on within their four walls. We just have to learn to be content with our lot, remove our eyes from other people and focus on our own lives. That's what's most important.
Yes ooh
May God help us
Hmmm i guess she just like the fact that you are jealous so she wanted to keep that up cos if not why would she lie that the man got her stuffs when he didn't and imagine you have been praying for such a man too, hope you have cancelled the prayer request 😁
Hahaha
Nah she later regret am nah

It must have been difficult for your friend to admit that the guy is like that and she instead tried to make him look good by doing or saying all those things, only to admit in the end that she lied to you.
She should have just told the truth
It is actually very funny...lol
Yeah. It takes a lot of guts to admit she has not been very honest with you.
