Love and Social Network

The urge to fall in love again was so strong, to be called baby and knowing that someone somewhere is probably thinking about me before she falls asleep was just ravishing my mind but then I don't want to fall in love with my phone anymore.

My past relationships has just been on social network, long texting, calls and what ever display of affection my phone could possibly give.
I met this yoruba girl once on 2go, then that was like the biggest chatting network and we had a sweet romance. She would call me and we will talk for long and the good thing then the mobile network providers was generous enough to give free calls at night and like an owl i'll keep my two large eyes open with just a hundred naira airtime that can enable the call.
She was in faraway Nassarawa and I was in Port harcourt, so the chances of us seeing was very slim even thinner than a sewing thread but then we were so in love at least that was what our phones were made to believe.
It was a sweet relationship even when I knew she already had a son, I still stuck to her and was hoping when it's time for marriage my parents will understand but our romance couldn't last long like our cheap data, we started falling apart our goodnight kiss reduced the rate at which we called slowed down and then this other Bayelsa girl appeared like a ghost from a horror film.

At first it wasn't serious, I just took it as one of those phone flings definitely this will pass away but the closer we get the more we found out that there are similarities in the things we like and this grew our bond a bit strong.

At first she refused to tell me her name with the fear that I might be a ritualist and needs it for some kind of blood money ritual, which was really funny to me, and after much persuasion she told me her name is Precious which I didn't take was rather a precious name good enough for blood money.

I actually didn't take her serious until she told me she was coming to port harcourt to see me that was when I knew it was real. Did I mention she was at Abuja? Ok I just did.
She was actually my first real girl friend, though after spending one week with me she left back and I returned back to the blissful relationship I had with my phone because that was the only way I could get in touch with her.
We continued our phonemance for a while until she got tired of asking me to come and visit and broke up with me.
Then I made up my mind never to fall in love on social network anymore and even if I do it will be someone from the same city but then love is also hard to come by, I was hoping I will run into someone in a wedding or concert but the truth is I am still in love with social network and now I have a variety to choose from.

Right now I can't tell if the girl of my dream is on facebook or I already have her number on whatsapp or maybe she is one of my numerous BBM contacts I don't chat with or one of the people liking my pictures on instagram or one of my numerous followers on Twitter waiting for me to dm.

The truth is I will always be in love with social media and I just can't help it Cause that's where all the fine girls are even when we can't tell if their beauty was filter enabled.
