A Wake Up Call Which Woke Me Up.

in The Ink Well4 months ago

Sleep is one of the things I cherish most in my life. I don’t trade my sleep for anyone and my friends know me for that. If I’m asleep and someone knocks on the door, I wouldn’t answer. It may be a bad attitude but I’m used to it so I’d just let it be.
I’ve been having issues with my previous relationship before we broke up.
Sometimes, I call my man and he doesn’t pick, I text and he wouldn’t respond and if can be very tiring.
I kept asking if I did anything wrong but all my efforts were futile. I just kept on pushing things hoping that I’d be able to revive the relationship.

In spite of all of these, I still had to push my life further even though I was very much disorganized because my so called boyfriend was showing some red light about him wanting to break up with me. Whenever I remember him, I always get scared because the break up is coming very soon.
I was supposed to have an interview in two days. I was getting prepared by reading and doing all other things.
I as well got the dress I’d love to use so I could look very good for the interview.
I made some researches about the company and I learned that they are always heavy on how their workers dress.
Also, I’m not the type who loves to panic or keep reading till the next day.
I slept well that night because I called my boyfriend and he spoke to me like I’ve been able to revive my relationship.

I set my alarm at 5:00 am so I could beat the traffic and get there early. I also planned to make up my face and all of those will take time and the best way to meet up is waking up early.
My phone began to ring. I was really angry because that was the time when I was enjoying my sleep. When I was about to check my screen to snooze the alarm for a few minutes, I realized it was my boyfriend who was calling me. I remember telling him that I’d be having an interview today and I’d be waking up by 5:00 am and to my surprise, he called me exactly when it was 5:00 am. I was really happy knowing fully well that my relationship is back and he now wants to call me just like the way he used to wake me up before when I’m going to important places and other things he does.

On picking the call, he asked me if I was good and we spoke like lovers do. Then, he said he’d love to tell me something and he would like me to take it personal because it is first the interest of the both of us. I started getting scared but I never thought he was going to break up with me since we were already acting cool with each other since last night.
Suddenly, he said he’d want us to go our separate ways because I was like a distraction to him. He said I didn’t have a job, all I wanted was money and there is no way he could benefit from me as his girlfriend. I was crazy. My head began to bang. I was off. I cried and started begging him and when I was calling too much, he blocked my line.
I forgot that I was supposed to get to the interview company by 7:30 am and I was still crying on my bed around 6:30 am.
I took my bath, ordered a ride and began to dress up.
I took my make up kits along with me and was making up my face in the car. The words he said to me kept on ringing in my ears and when I got to the company, I knew I failed woefully because I was so disorganized to the point of the interviewer telling me to fix myself when I get home because I wasn’t looking okay.
It was a lot for me. Those words continued to ring in my ear and I told my brothers about it.
He started teaching me how to do so many things online and how to trade Forex.
I was getting focused coupled with being heartbroken.

Within that short period of time, I saw a change in my life. That call and those words I didn’t find funny change my life. This made me learn that things sometimes come in the harsh way but we have to accept reality.
Today, my guy is back and apologized for the words he said to me back then.
He paid an amount of money for me to learn fashion designing which I do after school.
The words he said to me made me stronger and also made us love ourselves the more even though it came the harsh way.

Thank you all for reading and I’m glad to tell you that I’m back with my man.

Thank you

The words he said to you do not seem nice at all. They are hurtful words. I’m glad that you were able to see that as an avenue to wake up and do better things for your life

Those words were harsh from him. He could have been polite in explaining things so you can also find something to do. I knew the unexpected break up would have an effect during your interview and there is no way someone who hear such words and not be disorganised. At least that experience was a wake up call for you too to learn something online with the help of your brothers

I’m glad I could at least do something reasonable with my life

That's great 👍

Sometimes tough love can be the answer. Only when it gets difficult do my husband and I truly make the commitment to change, but each time we come out stronger ✊ I'm glad things were able to work out between you and your boyfriend!

He said I didn’t have a job, all I wanted was money and there is no way he could benefit from me as his girlfriend.

I don't know— but if a person tells me this, even if he is important to me, I don't think I can forgive him. I'm really a person who doesn't forget easily, especially hurtful words. Every time I see that person, bad memories just come back. I'm glad you're able to cope and fix yourself afterwards. The fact that you're back with him just proves that you really love him despite the bad things you experienced from him. Thanks for sharing, @bisolamih and I hope he won't repeat that mistake again.

Good day!

Well, you’ve got a good point
I hope he never gets to repeat that again
