A Nigerian lady has gone viral on social media after revealing why she rejected a marriage proposal from her ex-boyfriend.
The X user, identified as @Esther-aroboto, explained that the decision was influenced by her past experiences with him, including financial support she gave to help him start a business, which she claims he diverted into studio sessions for his music career.
According to her, the proposal conversation exposed deeper concerns about their future stability. She recounted asking how they would survive and build a home, only for him to respond that she would secure a good job after school while he pursued music.
She said that moment made her realise the relationship lacked direction. She also revealed that the same ex later reached out requesting financial help for his child’s hospital and feeding expenses, further validating her decision.
The post has sparked widespread debate online about love, responsibility, and financial expectations in relationships.
