A young lady has lamented and expressed regret about her visit from Jos to Lagos to see her boyfriend of three years. The young lady has taken to her social media page to call out her boyfriend over the unruly behavior he portrayed to her when she left her home in Jos to visit him in Lagos. According to the young lady, she went to her boyfriend’s house and spent days, but he didn’t care to give her a dime, not even transport fare. The lady added how she fell sick but her boyfriend did not give her any money for her medical bills. She disclosed that she used the money she had on her to buy drugs until she was better. Sharing her story, she said; “I visited my boyfriend from Jos to Lagos, I went with my transport when I reached, he welcomed me very well. But the issue here is that any time I tell him that I want to eat catfish or shawarma, he will tell me to bring money for it that he doesn’t have and I will give him to buy and he will eat more than me. “I fell sick too in his house I was the one that paid for my medical bills. Pass forward to when I wanted to go he didn’t give me a dime to add to my transport fare and this is someone that was begging me to come visit him. “Since I got back not even a call from him and we have been dating for 3years, it is work that took him to Lagos. His attitude towards me this time around is confusing me.”
