I took to my WhatsApp status to celebrate being fully booked out the whole of July and almost all of August for my AI private sessions just to have this silly woman comment this. She has been saying silly things behind my back but she had the guts to say it to me. No hesitation whatsoever, I gave her quick reality check.

I refused to be the woman anyone could shame with marriage—especially not someone my life is a luxury compared to.

I learned the hard way that friendship with men from Twitter/X is not for the weak 😭

So let me tell you how one Twitter guy completely weirded me out.

Back in 2023, I used to interact with this guy on X. We used to chat on the timeline, reply each other here and there, normal TL friendship vibes. Nothing serious.

At the time, I was visiting my dad and ended up staying in Lagos way longer than I planned because something happened. Since I was going to be around for a while, I needed to restock my skincare.

Now, the skincare store was in Lekki, and this guy offered to pick me up so we could go together. The plan was simple: buy my skincare, then hang out and have lunch after.

Cool.

So the day came, I got dressed, he picked me up, and we went to the skincare store. Mind you, I didn’t even buy plenty things. Just essentials. A few products I actually needed.

We got to the counter, the lady told me the total( about 100k+), I brought out my card and paid.

Please note this part carefully:
I PAID.

I did not ask this man to pay for anything.

The moment we left the store, his entire mood changed.

At first, I ignored it because I thought maybe I was overthinking it. Then we got to the restaurant, ordered food, and while we were eating, he randomly asked me how much my skincare costs monthly.

I told him honestly that I don’t even know exactly because skincare isn’t something you buy every month. Sometimes products last 6 weeks, sometimes things finish at different times. But on average? Maybe around ₦200k–₦250k depending on what I need.

This man just stared at me.

Then he goes:
“Unfortunately, I can’t date you.”

Mind you, nobody asked him out 😭

I wasn’t even looking at him romantically in the first place. We were literally just mutuals hanging out because I thought he seemed cool.

So I just said, “Oh okay.”

But after that, the entire vibe died. Conversation finished. Everything became awkward.

When we were heading back, he kept asking if I was angry. I kept saying no because honestly, I didn’t even care that much. But he kept pushing and pushing for reassurance.

So eventually I said something like:
“I’m not angry. You’re not even my type. I was never planning to date you anyway.”

And THAT is where everything scattered 😭

This man suddenly got offended.

“What do you mean I’m not your type?”
“Am I too broke for you?”
“Am I too small for you?”
“What exactly do you mean?”

And the crazy thing is… none of those things were even what I meant.

First of all, I was already in a relationship 😭
Why would I be secretly planning a relationship with a Twitter mutual?

Secondly, when I say someone is “not my type,” it doesn’t automatically mean they’re ugly or broke or beneath me. Sometimes it literally just means… I’m not romantically interested.

But this guy refused to let it go.

I now found myself apologising and explaining over and over because he got genuinely upset. The whole thing became exhausting.

After he dropped me off, the friendship basically died naturally. I think I texted him the next day, he replied dryly, and that was it.

Fast forward to sometime later, I started seeing subtle shade tweets on my timeline that were VERY obviously directed at me 😭

Stuff about girls whose skincare is expensive and how men shouldn’t date them blah blah blah.

And the funniest part is:
I NEVER asked this man to buy me anything.

Not one serum.
Not one cleanser.
Not even sunscreen 😭

I literally paid for everything myself.

That experience honestly taught me that some men already create imaginary expectations in their head, and once reality doesn’t match the fantasy, suddenly you become the villain.

Since then, I’ve just minded my business because friendship with men from X? Hmmm. You people should be careful 😭

@ManLikeAkoh This isn't true because I have classmates that dropped out because of school fees.
