A young woman has spoken up about her emotional battle with terminating her engagement, despite having loved her fiancé for two years.
She described how her relationship had been filled with love, laughter, and shared dreams. “We grew together, shared plans, laughed, even talked about the future like two people who were sure of each other,” she told me.
The woman said that after accepting the proposal, something inside her shifted. “He didn’t hurt me, he didn’t change, he’s still the same caring, loving and supportive person I know. The problem is not him, it’s in my heart,” she explained.
She admitted that her excitement for marriage had faded.
Despite her best efforts to ignore her emotions, pray, and remain silent in order to prevent hurting him, she acknowledged that she was no longer certain about marrying him.
She confided in two friends, who advised her that ending the engagement could result in unforgiveness.
“I honestly loved this guy for the past two years, and accepting the engagement was real. But I don’t feel the strong love and certainty I need before marriage. He didn’t do anything wrong, and this is not about another person,” she said.
She stated that she does not want to approach marriage with doubt or pretence because her fiancé deserves someone who is completely assured of their love.
“Seriously, my heart is heavy. I want to call off this engagement because I don’t want to ever imagine hurting this guy in mind,” she added.
She also recounted her family’s reaction. “I briefly told my parent the other day, and my dad called me an ogbanje, that it’s only people with that spirit that behaves like that,” she said.
Despite this, she sticks to her feelings and seeks the finest manner to express her decision.
The woman is now seeking for a method to tell the news to her fiancé without feeling bad, and she hopes to keep their friendship.
“Yes we promised not to leave each other, but this is life, and sometimes we can’t question certain things,” she said.
