It was two years ago when I met Vivian. I liked her instantly but I didn’t want to rush to express my interest in her until I got to know her better. That’s why we became friends first. The more I stayed with her as a friend the more I discovered more things to love about her. Her mere presence intoxicated me. All she had to do was smile sweetly at me and my belly would be completely ridden with butterflies.

Vivian was my undoing in every sense of the word. Her voice, the way she cackles with laughter like an uncontrollable wildfire, and the way she looks at me like I am the only man in the world. I almost forgot to mention that she is a kind person with a beautiful heart. It made my heart feel proud that her beauty is not only on the outside but on the inside too.

All these traits combined had me wrapped around her little finger. Can you blame me for falling madly in love with her? I gave her my full attention and she welcomed it wholeheartedly. Whenever I wanted to see her, she availed herself. When I called to talk to her, she would stay on the phone with me for as long as possible.

Her willingness to be available to me whenever I want to give her my attention gave me the impression that she was also interested in me. With that assurance, I went ahead to confess my feelings for her. Then I asked, “How do you feel about me? I want us to get married if you are ready for me.” That’s how much I love her. I don’t want to waste her time with years of relationship when I know very well that she is the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with.

As hopeful as I was for a positive response, she told me; “I like you too but give me some time to think about your proposal.” I asked her, “Why do you need time? Is there another man in your life already?” She said there was no one. She then added that she had never been in a relationship so she would like to be sure I am the one before she makes the big jump. I asked how much time she would need and she said, “I am not sure but it will be soon.”

That soon has now turned into two years. Whenever I ask her about my proposal she would tell me, “I am still thinking about it. Please give me more time.” In all this time, I have been in her life. It’s not as if I distance myself and come back to ask about the proposal. I have been actively involved in her life every step of the way. When she needs me, I am there for her. Whatever she needs, I do my best to offer her assistance in whichever way she needs.

I am doing all this so she would know that I am serious about her. However, she still wouldn’t give me a response. That’s why I am here with this story. I want to ask the ladies here if they think I stand a chance with her. Will a woman string a man along for two years if she truly wants him?

I spoke to a male friend about it and he has been laughing at me ever since. He thinks I am being a tool for waiting around this long for a woman to accept my proposal. “As for me, I won’t do that. Once she tells me to give her time, I will move on. Time no dey like that,” he said. To get me to forget about Vivan, my friend went to the extent of connecting me to his lady friend. I wasn’t interested in that lady so I didn’t follow up on that connection. Besides, I am the shy type so I wouldn’t know how to talk to her.

When my friend found out that I didn’t talk to his lady friend, he got angry and told me to forget about Vivian. I want to but the truth is, I love her so much. So I want to go ahead and ask her to marry me one more time. If she still says she needs time, then I will force myself to move on. That’s not a bad idea, right?
