Good day, people of Hive! Welcome to my blog. Today's topic is from Hive Student Connect which says:Tell us a love story. So let's dive in.
Honestly, love is so blind that we sometimes do crazy things all because of love. Let me share with you guys my love story. It happened when I was in 100 level, second semester, and I met a guy through our department platform for 100–400 level students. The guy’s name is Bolu. So we started chatting and he said he wished to know me face-to-face. I told him no problem.
The third day happened to be election day in our faculty for students contesting for different positions. I was looking for the guy because I hadn’t seen his picture. When I asked someone for help, I was told to meet their course rep so he could tell me. After seeing the course rep, I told him I was looking for one of his coursemates named Bolu. But because he was talking to someone, he didn’t hear me. So when I tapped him, he shouted at me, saying never in my life should I touch him. I felt hurt and left his front, then called Bolu until he came to meet me.
Fast forward to when I was in 200 level, first semester, I don’t even know when I started having feelings for Bolu’s course rep, whose name is Michael. I always wished to see him every day. Because of him, I would leave the house one hour before my lecture just to see his face. Honestly, I didn’t even know why I fell in love with him. Whenever I saw him with another girl, I would get angry.
Then he was in 300 level and contesting for a higher position in school. During the election, because he had someone competing with him for the position, I started begging people to vote for him 😂😂 Even my friends were like, Tosin, your love for this guy is deep for me begging people to vote for him. The funniest thing is that I would hide my number to call him just to hear his voice 😂😂 My friends were like, Tosin, you're crazy.
I would dress up fine so that he would notice me, and God answered my prayer, he noticed me. I don’t even know how he got to know I was the one calling him with an unknown number. He told me I shouldn’t call him again and stuff like that. Since then, I promised myself never to look at him again. I started ignoring him and distancing myself from him.
Until one day, I noticed that whenever I was in a place, he would want to be there. Whenever I was walking, he was always at my back, following me. Then bam, the love started growing again… until the guy graduated.
In conclusion, when I remember all these silly things I did for love, I always laugh at myself 😂😂 Because love is indeed crazy and blind. I never expected such from myself, but you know how love works. Now the funniest part is that if I see the guy again, I can’t say I still love him because I have already forgotten him not completely, but you know what I mean.
