I met my husband two(2) years ago in my estate,Prince and Princess Abuja. On that faithful day I was going to church,so I came out waiting to get a taxi,but could not get one,so I was just standing there. Few minutes latter ,I saw someone pass and he greeted me saying Good morning,and in my usual self I responded without looking at him because I was busy with my phone and then he said "Lady let me drop you off for today is Sunday and taxis hardly come in as often".
I just ignored him without saying a word, so he left to buy something. On his way back after a couple of minutes he saw me still standing there,so he said again,"My lady please let me drop you off,you won't get any taxi", it was then it dawned on me that it would be difficult to get taxi. Like he read my mind, he quickly ran to get his car and picked me up. He was so excited while we got talking and he told me that it was GOD that planned our meeting because he was actually looking for his gate man or driver but none was available,so he walked out to get recharge card and saw me. I just didn't say anything for I was late and wanted to be in church as soon as possible. He then begged me to give him my number which I was reluctant about because he wasn't with his phone and wanted me to write it on a piece of paper,so I did write my number down and he made me save his on my phone , he said he really wanted to see me again,honestly all I wanted was the lift and wasn't interested in his plenty talk
He dropped me off at church at that time I was invited by a friend Minite,my university friend who I ran into at the airport,so invited me to family worship centre Wuye,Abuja. Before the service ended that day it rained cats and dogs and I was stranded,so I decided to call him(my husband now) and he quickly came to pick me up in the rain. Trust me after that he kept calling and calling for more than two (2) weeks and I didn't pick,because I wasn't really ready to date his tribe again for personal reasons. A day came that I was so bored at home and his call came in, I just picked and he said he would love to take me out for dinner.
I concurred and we went to eat pizza and he kept on saying he really wants to know me better but I wasn't interested. After that date I saw his simplicity and calmness but still just wasn't into him. We kept hanging out for about a week and it was close to my birthday in September ,and he promised to celebrate it for me. He actually paid reservation in Summer-Set Maitama,Abuja for my guests, but still I wasn't into him at all. I decided to date someone else who had been a friend back in university for I knew him better and decided to see if a relationship could work out, so I told him about my decision,he was really hurt but still he paid the huge amount for my birthday and even attended . He kept saying I loved you from day one Faith,just give me the opportunity and I will prove my love to you.
I decided to go with my decision even though he was financially stable than the person I decided to date for honestly, I thought he wasn't real and wanted to just entice me. After two (2) months plus I made my decision to break the relationship I was trying to build and move on for I got to know it wasn't God's will. I kept seeing him(My husband) but just didn't discuss anything to him. He latter moved out of the estate,but kept on checking up on me, thinking I was in a relationship, he always said "Faith you can come back anytime you want to,I really love you", but I made him believe I was in a relationship,so he can leave me alone. Hehehe.
Early 2015,I got a job and wanted to have a celebration, so I was chatting with my friend now Mrs Obehi Imagwe, and was talking to her whom to invite for I had really missed her absence as she was now in Port-Harcourt with her husband, so she reminded me of him(my husband) I just waved it off and she insisted I placed a call to him. It was then I noticed I didn't t even have his number again because I had deleted it at a time. She kept saying "Faith, this guy truly likes you, why not give him a chance". Then I searched for him on Facebook and dropped a message about my party. He replied saying he was in Germany at the moment but would get in touch as soon as he got back into the country.
He got back soon enough to take myself and younger sister, Bountiful who was now with me for her service year to a live music at Capital bar at the Hiltons. He kept asking me if I was still seeing someone and I said YES, so he said okay. After that date, he still kept in touch, so while talking over the phone on one of those days I said I wasn't seeing anyone anymore. Oh my goodness, that was just it. It was like he had hit a gold mine. He just didn't give me any breathing space, he said "Faith I lost you once I wouldn't afford to loose you again".
After one (1) month of dating he gave me gifts then after 2 months he took me to see his parents and came to Benin to see mine, fixed date for our introduction. He was so sweet, he was concerned about my success in my career,carried my issues like his own as well. It was at this time it dawned on me that he was really serious about making me his because really I had given up completely. He proposed and fixed date for marriage,I honestly was amazed for it all turned out to be like a dream too good to be true and it really was then I remembered my prayer to God some time ago and HE reminded me that HE answered long ago, I was just too blind folded with my extra being careful to see how deeply Tonte loved me. Finally, November 27 & 28, we got married. Praise be to God.
Wow, I so loved her testimonial love story for it blessed me and I know it blessed you too, do drop your thoughts as comments.
We say a big hearty congratulations to Mr & Barr Mrs Tonte Ibraye on their soleminization. God bless you union greatly.
