So yesterday was quite a funny day.
Mum kept abusing me as to why I dated a student in school especially someone in my class.
And I kept explaining to her that when I entered school, I wasn't thinking bout marriage and the consequences of dating someone so close to me in age.
And she kept saying in her days, you don't date your mate.
That it was unheard of and am like lol because I really couldn't stand d guys in higher levels than me in university.

Fast forward to around 7.30pm, we were both watching our favorite soap Tinsel and Ene broke up with Chuks cuz she wanted a "steady serious relationship". Mumc jumps up again and says see that's what I'm talking about. And in my mind I wasn't rolling just my eye, my whole body was rolling as I was thinking "arggggh not again". Well at least this talk didn't last long as we were still watching.

Just the other day, I n my best friend were talking as she wanted to break up with her "student boyfriend" as she was getting older and well things were not looking up for them future-wise. And also her parents were stressing. We came to the conclusion that in the future when we have female children, we'd advise them not to date students as the girls always end up the victims 90% of the time.

Cuz 1) they end up waiting for a long time while all their mates are married.
2) There is the case of biological clocks
3) and there is the case of pressurizing parents who won't let you rest but u do know they have your best interests at heart.
4) Society isn't kind to a matured single lady as you are either classified as depressed, or bitchy.
5) All would be better if we knew for sure that after waiting these men would do the right thing and put a ring on ya finger. But with all the popular stories of men leaving long time girlfriends for younger fresher blood.....waiting doesn't seem like fun or a profitable investment.

So now I am thinking if I had to do it all over again would I still date my "student boyfriend".......the answer is YES.
Cuz, if I don't then my life would be different and I love my life. I love the people in it. I love the friendships that happened as a result of "student boyfriend". But I do not mention any of this to my mother cuz that would be me signing up on another long talk.
