I'm afraid of dating a bad man again

Mar 29, 2017

I was forced to pay his debt, he started coming home late, not talking to me and acting in a strange way. When I checked his phone, he seemed to be dating someone else.

Finding a partner is hard lately however; to me it was the opposite. I met this guy who I thought was heaven sent, says Stella Nanteza, a resident of Lukuli Mankidye.

Ivan (not real name) was the man of my dreams, after dating for a year, he asked for my hand in marriage.

We set a date for our first official visitation to parents commonly known as kukyala which I informed my parents. Preparations were made to make the day colourful. After the Kukyala, we began staying together and this is when I saw his true colours.

At night I would wake up only to find him chatting on phone, something he would do every day even when I tried to complain. 

I remember when he had lost his job; I was supporting him as well as to putting food on the table.

Whenever I tired telling him to look for work, he would resist telling me he was planning on start a business.

One day he asked me for sh1m that he started rearing pigs and he needed money to boost the business.

I had no money, so I decided to borrow; Ivan assured me he will refund it.

He also informed me on how he would be traveling every weekend to check on the progress of the business. He did this for a month and stopped.

When the date for paying his debt reached, I reminded him but he rudely replied saying he would have paid but the business was not successful.

I was forced to pay his debt, he started coming home late, not talking to me and acting in a strange way. When I checked his phone, he seemed to be dating someone else.

One day I went home late and so hungry, I found him having dinner and when I asked him if he had left any for me, he angrily told me he did not know I wanted.

My last blow was when I lent him my car because he had a job interview and he he returned it with some parts missing.
