1️⃣Jonasi dismissed HIV as “iqhoksi” 😅, but his pride wouldn’t let him touch ARVs.
When he fell gravely ill, Essie offered to care for him. His reply? “I’m not dying in Soweto.”
2️⃣He found Joyce’s gun and immediately assumed she wanted to kill herself never once imagining he could be the target.
Even on his deathbed, when his daughter asked for an apology, he shot back: “I am the parent.”
3️⃣Sex addiction played a big role in his downfall, but pride was the real killer. It blocked him from accepting help, admitting wrongs, and making peace with those he hurt.
In the end, it wasn’t HIV that defeated Jonasi it was his pride.
(And yes, I still can’t believe he also refused treatment for his gonorrhea 😂)

In what world is it okay to have a baby with a known pedophile???? How did that conversation go? What did he tell you from prison? Don’t even get me started on the shoot that should’ve been a secret in the hideous outfits!!
Nobody thought about the child’s future??? Common!
You see that healthy relationship that comes with lots of gifts, vacations, constant reassurance, peace of mind, and real love. YOU and I will experience it.
Lmaooo you guys are the ones voting Peter Obi to change Nigeria.
I want this baddie in the Villa for the aesthetics, if her husband can find time to fix Nigeria okay then.
I’ve known my wife for 14 years and I don’t think I’ve ever had to forgive her for anything. You don’t have to settle for partners who hurt you over and over
I'll give married guys some free advice...
Chase your wife around the house. You turn something on in her. You guys become children for just that 4 minutes running around. 😉
Lift her off the ground. It says something to her mind. 😉
But if you want to keep the spark alive in the middle of a busy life, add these to the list:
Take over the dinner chaos. When she is staring down the pot trying to figure out how to feed everyone, stepping in and saying, "I've got this," or just ordering the Friday night pizza or food so she doesn't have to cook, speaks directly to her soul.
Handle the unsexy logistics.
Give her the gift of absolute silence. Sometimes taking the kids out of the house for two hours so she can just exist in a quiet room without anyone needing anything from her.
Flirt with her during the ordinary moments. A wink across the room while you are both cleaning up the kitchen reminds her that underneath the heavy titles of "Mom" and "Dad," you are still just two people crazy about each other.
Notice the invisible labor. Thank her for remembering the scheduling, the grocery, and all the behind the scenes magic that keeps the house running. It bridges the gap and silently says, "I see exactly how hard you work for us."
The movie romance is great, but the trenches of everyday life are where the real connection happens.
Show up for her there.
