5 Things Every Nigerian Girl Does After A Breakup
Not every prince is charming.
Sometimes your prince can be such an a**hole, you end up breaking up with him. A popular saying:
You have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince.
This holds true for many Nigerian girls. We have to go through several Yoruba demons before we find our Nigerian angel. It is utterly exhausting. These are the things every Nigerian girl does after a breakup (a breakup ritual really):
1. Deleting galore
The first thing to succumb to the deleting galore is the phone number. Then we remove all the pictures and then delete them off social media. I call this move “deleting them from your universe”.
2. Waterworks
We may not cry in front of people because
big girls don’t cry
But trust me, the waterworks come through at some point. Maybe in the shower or when we’ve had too much to drink with our girlfriends.
3. Stalking
Just because we deleted them off our social media accounts doesn’t mean we don’t keep tabs on our exes. They may even be chatting with us via our totally new accounts.
4. Drunk texting
In the pre-waterwork stage, we may accidentally text, email or call the ex. This happens if they did the breaking up. But we’re usually back to our “big girl” status and mentality when we sober up.
5. Upgrading a bro from the friend zone
They say the easiest way to get over an old guy is to move on to a new one. And believe me, many Nigerian girls have friend zoned dozens of guys. We just promote one guy from the zone to relationship.
