I kept thinking about T and checking my phone intermittently to see if my <a href=\"https:\/\/cowrywise.com\/blog\/money-duo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Money Duo<\/a> request had been accepted. <em>Ma air mi jo<\/em>, T ??<br><br>Been a long while since I last felt this way, if at all. If I\u2019m being honest, I\u2019ve probably been hiding behind work to avoid love stories, but look at me now. One thing must break a person and T has broken my hard guy stance, but at this rate, maybe we should just be friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As at this morning, T was yet to accept my <a href=\"https:\/\/cowrywise.com\/blog\/money-duo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Duo<\/a> request and I have been too tensed to check again. I can literally feel my heart pulsating fast. Omo, this love thing <em>na wa<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think I will ask someone else to help me check. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/obiuchennadavid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">David<\/a> must have muted me on Slack by now ? But all these <a href=\"https:\/\/cowrywise.com\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">my colleagues<\/a> <em>sef<\/em>, they will not let me love my love in peace. They\u2019ve been asking who T is since they read <a href=\"https:\/\/cowrywise.com\/blog\/opes-diary-8\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">yesterday\u2019s entry<\/a> and I kept changing the topic ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe I should talk to an outsider? Or someone at home? Imagine that my family members hear that I\u2019m drooling over someone. Ehhh, I can imagine my mum literally throwing a party ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love is sweet <em>sha<\/em>. A friend once told me of how he spent days writing in a journal to give to the love of his life then. He spent days just spewing sweet gibberish on paper. The relationship is over now though ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beautiful while it lasted, but it is what it is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why does love feel so complicated at times? Or maybe I should borrow words from Adele: <em>why does it last in love but sometimes it hurts instead?\u00a0<\/em><br><br>Oh well, let me come back to the real issue. T has not still accepted my <a href=\"https:\/\/cowrywise.com\/blog\/money-duo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Duo<\/a> request o. It\u2019s been 24 hours now. Maybe we should actually, just be friends ? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope all is well with T though. Pray for me y\u2019all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Better yet, give me hope. Share your love stories with me &#8211; good or bad. Has your crush ever <em>aired<\/em> you? Or did you at any point <em>air<\/em> someone who liked you? Don\u2019t worry, I won\u2019t judge you. After all, to <em>air<\/em> is human ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>??Lmaooo tell me about it, and let me live through you small as I await T\u2019s response.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love,<br>Ope ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I woke up in a rush today although I barely got any sleep.
