He wanted to meet my parents right from the start, but I told him I needed to know him better so I could explain him to my parents. My mom is dead, so it’s left with my dad and a cousin of ours who lives with him.

He asked about my father’s job and I said he was a retired teacher and also a farmer.

When our relationship was six months old, I took him home. It’s a four-hour journey and I hadn’t seen my dad in a long while, so I wanted to make it worth it. I bought some groceries and cloth for him. Honestly, I thought he would get my dad something, but when he didn’t, I didn’t ask about it.

We got home, I did the introduction, the reception was good, and the conversation was also enlightening. My dad even thanked him for showing respect by meeting him. I followed my dad inside and gave him the things I bought.

On our way back home, he asked how much I was sending to my dad monthly. I mentioned the amount, thinking he was planning something for my dad.

Three days, four days, a whole week and this guy’s attitude was off. I knew I hadn’t done anything to offend him, but I asked anyway. He answered, “You embarrassed me when we visited your father. Why didn’t you give him the things in my presence and tell him it was coming from us?”

I was like, “But they were coming from me? From a daughter to her father. That aside, why didn’t we discuss it before going if that was what you wanted?”

His answer was, “Do I have to tell you something as basic as this?”

The relationship is over.

I broke up with him that very day. “No, I can’t continue with a man who has this sort of perception. It’s basic? I didn’t know,” I told him. He said, “You’re not the one to break up with me because I broke up with you at your father’s place when you did that.”

She Would Introduce Me To Rich Men Who’ll Give Me Money

The breakup doesn’t hurt me as much as having to explain to my dad why I broke up with the guy I introduced not long ago. When I call him, he asks about him. He even gives me tips on how to sustain the relationship. I smile to myself and say, “You don’t know what’s going on.”
