Love can be sweet but sometimes it can also bring deep pain. A young lady is crying bitterly after her boyfriend of more than one year broke up with her because he saw poverty in her family. She shared her painful story online hoping to get comfort and advice from people who understand what heartbreak feels like.
According to her, she and her boyfriend had been dating for over a year. She said he was caring and always called her every day. One day he told her he wanted to meet her parents. She felt so happy because she thought the relationship was becoming serious. She believed this was the next step towards marriage. She cooked for him and welcomed him to her family home with love.
But after he visited her family two weeks ago, things changed suddenly. The man who used to call her every day stopped calling her like before. He did not reply to her text messages. She tried to find out what was wrong but he did not say anything. For five days she did not hear from him. On the sixth day she called him four times but he did not pick up. She waited and prayed that he would call back. About thirty minutes later he finally sent her a message but what he wrote broke her heart completely.
In the message the young man told her he could not continue with the relationship because he saw poverty in her family. He said her family did not even have a comfortable chair for him to sit on when he came. He complained that they drank tap water and that the ceiling of their house was already damaged. He even said he was lucky the ceiling did not fall on his head. He told her that he could not join a family that would depend on him financially. He told her goodbye and ended everything with one message.
This young lady said she has not stopped crying since she read that message. She said she is tired and does not even have tears anymore. She really loved him and does not know why he would treat her like this after seeing the sacrifices her father made for her. She explained that her father spent almost everything he made from his farm and plantations to pay her school fees so she could finish university. She just completed her Master’s degree. Her father gave her the best he could because he wanted her to have a bright future. Sadly, the man she loves did not see that. He only saw the old chairs and the broken ceiling.
What makes her pain worse is that he has blocked her phone number. He has also blocked her on all his social media pages. Now she feels alone. She said she is falling into depression and does not know what to do because she still loves him and she does not know how to stop thinking about him. She is begging for kind words and advice on how to move forward and stand up again.
Many people who read her story online are sending her comforting words. Some people are saying that if he truly loved her he would not leave her because of her family’s poor condition. Others are praising her father for sacrificing so much to give her education. Many people are telling her to be strong and remember that her background does not decide her future. Some are saying that the man who left her today will regret his actions tomorrow when he sees how far she will go in life.
No matter how painful it is, this story is a lesson to everyone. If you ever find yourself in this kind of situation, please do not lose hope. Cry if you want but do not stay down forever. Wipe your tears and focus on your dreams. The best revenge is success. Make your parents proud. One day the right person will love you for who you are and not for what you have.
Always remember that true love does not count how much money your family has. It looks at your heart and how you treat people. If you have any kind words for this young lady please share them. You may help her feel less alone. Let us remember that everyone deserves love and kindness, no matter their background.
