I got stranded one weekend and needed to make an urgent transfer, but Zenith Bank decided to misbehave. I called my girlfriend and asked if she could lend me the money, promising to send it back the moment my transaction went through.
She said, “I don’t think I can.”
I asked why, thinking maybe she had a genuine reason. She replied, “You know I don’t like taking money out of my savings.”
I asked again just to be sure I heard her correctly. She repeated the exact same thing.
I simply said, “Okay,” and ended the call. A few days later, I ended the relationship too.
It wasn’t even about the money. It was realizing I couldn’t count on the person I was planning a future with when I genuinely needed help.
I’m not British, Not English, just a sojourner in the country, so I have the freedom to support any country I wish. Even the players on the pitch for them are racially abused how much more the people not even know lol
He hit the nail on the head.
All the people mocking non-English people for supporting England in the World Cup because of “ colonialism”
If you really cared about colonialism…
Why are you not in your favourite country trying to help rebuild it?
support the country you live in or live in the country you support
I do not believe we should hand the office of Lord Mayor - one of the oldest institutions in our country - to refugees from Somalia.
But while we’re here, Dave, are you happy flooding our political system with anti-Semites, conspiracy theorists, & Islamists?
MattGPT @GoodwinMJ, what is your problem?
