WORTH READING: STORY FOR THE DAY

My name is Tolulope Johnson, I'm from a very spiritual home and have been in church all my life. I have met many people growing up, had different sect of friends. The spiritual ones, the town girls, the middle class(spiritual background but different believe). I have always been a girl that believes in herself.

I don't follow friends to take decision, so i never believed in having boyfriend as a teenager. Many a times have been tested and tempted but have been strong. I never gave in to any guy. My four years in the university i never had a boyfriend, it may sound weird or untrue but that was my decision.

I don't even allow guys into my room, friends tried hooking me up with guys but I decline. Fast forward to my NYSC days, while i was on camp i had a guy i loved but couldn't go out with him because he was catholic. I wished the three weeks will just come and go because waking up to see him breed many butterflies inside of me.
when we were posted to our PPAs we were at different local government and later he redeployed back to Ekiti, I was so glad. so the feelings left. I came back home from service still a virgin. I registered for my post-graduate studies in the prestigious University of Ibadan, I loved my colleagues but non was good for a date, four month after i started my programme i became worried that I wasn't in any relationship, I was beautiful and have a beautiful shape every guy wants. I was always neatly dressed and my makeup was always on point.

On June 30 2015, I met this guy around 6pm. I was buying a snack inside the school preparing to go home, a tall dark and handsome looking guy he was. He was neatly dressed, his smiles caught me. It was love at first sight or should I say lust. He was the manager of a young generation bank, he was 30 and I was 24. He was so full of life, we sat down at one of the quadrangle in the school we laughed and talked for long, anyone that saw us would have thought we have been couple for decades. i spoke freely with him and foolishly told him i was a virgin.

He pretended not to hear me so i believed he wasn't nterested. Around past 8, he dropped me at my hostel. We still talked for over an hour. This went on for two weeks, i was so happy I will be in a relationship soon, he got me gifts, we go to the cinemas every Saturday for three weeks. I became the envy of my room mates.

I so trusted him cos he has good morals. One afternoon he came to pick me in my hostel and told me he has a surprise for me. I gladly followed and in his car we were listening to collections of Don Moen's songs. He drove into an estate and five minutes later he pulled over, we walked towards a gate and we entered a house with just two flats.

It was his house, I was a little bit scared but later waved it. He told me he wants to cook me a meal. I watched him make jollof rice for me, it was a touch of professionalism. I was wowed, when the food was ready we ate together and I was enjoying every bit of my moments with him. After the meal, we took a few cups of non alcoholic white wine. One thing led to the other and he kissed me.

I responded passionately, I didn't resist and he went further, when he was unzipping my peplum gown, i knew i was gone. All of a sudden lying down on that rug my eyes went to my hand band (I was wearing SOV hand-band stay virgin Till wedding). Immediately, I pushed him away and I became sobber. I began to wonder what went wrong and how I became foolish to fall for this guy that never talked about church.

I asked him what Church he attends and he started stammering, i concluded he wasn't a church type. I immediately wore my clothes and left for the hostel. Till date he never called or send a text, and i don't see him around. I was happy my dignity wasn't lost to him. How many girls out there were as lucky as i was, not all. I don't know the lesson you got, from Tolu's story, it's a big lesson to every beautiful girl out there
