Nervousness is a part of affection


Greater numbers of people feels quivery whenever they appear in the presence of the person they have romantic affection on. The remaining percentage either possesses a unique gift of boldness or merely feigns liking for the person.




I remember when I was in secondary (first year), I hardly talked to girls, and I feel that I still can't relate well with girls presently even when it's not about courage. In my JSS1, I only had discussions with girls that were my sister's friend. I hardly talked to ones my troubling mind thought were romantic; I wouldn't have survived looking them straight in the face.


Although the affection was there, the body wasn't willing to act, so I had to continue sighting my numerous crushes from afar. It was an exciting and yet, a burning task. Exciting in that you keep day-dreaming of a time you would come to cage the rare beauty, and burning because although you visualize talking to them, other are easily actualizing your day dreams with relish.


One day, one of my crushes called my name in class. I hardly replied due to the build-up of tension in me. She came closer, and I had to hold on to an adjacent chair to douse the anxiety. She actually came to inquire about the boy he always walked with: whether I've seen where the mate is; whether he's arrived in school. Anger brought in courage, I curtly told her "no". Why would she ask me such during what was supposed to be a first date?


I took away something from there. She was also quivering during the conversation like I was, although she was more composed than I. Although she had others to have asked about the boy, she preferred getting a discussion with me. In reasonable term, she had a crush on me. It was admitted at a later date.


Why saying all these? Boys are always quivery when they meet up with who they have erotic affection for. Mainly boys, because the opposite sex and the society in general have seen it as a paradigm for males to be asking out the females. So while the boys commands over the tension, the girls pretend not to be nervous.


The girls actually are also nervous when they meet a guy they have affection for. When I remember how my sister would say she could form for Africa, I laugh, because she could deceive the lingering boys into thinking she couldn't form for them. 


Nervousness is a part of affection, my brothers! I come and go in peace! ☮️

Romance: I introduce gift to night class

Image
The other day, Mr Rasheed gave an impromptu test in which we weren't only mandated to find the solution of an equation using matrices, but also through Laplace transforms. Not only did I fail the test comfortably, but the Engineering mathematics lecturer who seconded as a pastor in one of these Bible believing churches saw it good to reward me with a 0/10 score. He was one of the honest lecturers left in school, however, he was much hated for his unwavering stance. I was one of those students who were more concerned about life in this country than in finding solutions to what we considered a mere equation. Two more impromptu tests followed in quick succession, all bearing the same score. I knew I had to put in an effort. Ever since I laboriously got admission into the university, I never for a trial attended their night classes. For my little delicate body's sake, I never missed the doctor-recommended eight happy hours of sleep each day. Infact, since getting into school, I t

It takes only a legend to get two beautiful sisters as girlfriends

Image
 Isabella was my crush for some donkey years before now. That is not so again. She is presently my girlfriend 002, at least that is what am fancying. My journey in the ministry of girlfriend and women affairs started eight years ago, at a time I was just an innocent ten years old boy. All that mattered for the boy was a well concocted meal(especially ones brought in from burials, weddings, and other food-sharing ceremony of any kind), a sound sleep, and deep sincerity to God. Being the youngest child and the only son in a family of four was an added advantage to my hobbies. Aside eating and sleeping, my third area of expertise which doubled as my best hobby was idleness. And that fetched me enough beating from my senior sisters. However, although I was always flogged by the sisters, I was pampered by my parents considering that I was yet their only male offspring: the one who would possess their inheritance. These circumstances added up to embolden my devil-may-care attitude, as I was

Relationship aren't meant to be theatrical

 The society makes it seems as if relationship is an achievement! 🤨 How? Day one would witness a girl rant about how she's finally landed in a relationship, with a purported love of her life! This followed several sex escapades which we weren't deemed important to know about. From day two to several months, it would all be blissful - late night calls(we won't still hear about those ones), video calls and “i love you texts”. After these, poems would begin to instance on the beloved-couples's social media accounts extolling the gratifying physical appearances of each other, intermixed with promissory of a no-entry-no-exit. Again, both shared each other these. For several donkey-months after  , we hear nothing of our celebrity couples. Insider reports (as there would be) rumors about the hate the male and female have recently developed for each other. Infact, our model husband and wife have taken turns to drop cryptic social media messages meant to vilify each other. This
