Good day everyone, today I will be giving my opinion on the weekly featured content #hl-w16e2 which goes thus "SOCIAL MEDIA ON RELATIONSHIPS"
Social media has done good influence to me in so many ways that has been a source of joy to me today, to me social media is not just a flirting platforms, though it has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Some years back I met a guy on social media through a dating site then, we exchanged contact and started talking, the guy is so good and well mannered, he is working in one of the biggest company in Lagos, he is a good guy to me and he is very loyal to the core.
After some months of friendship he asked me out but I declined because he is someone I don't really know anything about, we met through social media, I told him you don't expect me to agree to your proposal like that, he agreed to take things gentle with me but at time goes on he started putting me through so many things, he involved in my school activities, he related as if we are family, we bond so well.
We continue our friendship and everything is going on well but this guy is not okay with just friendship, he promise to visit me in Abuja, which he did because he lives in Lagos, we met and I like the guy because he is so respectful and sincere and handsome as well, he is everything I love in a man. We fell in love with each other and he invited me over to meet his parent in Lagos because I do talk with his mum on phone and one of his siblings, I agreed to visit him in Lagos the next month.
I went to Lagos to visit his family, they were so good to me, his house was like home to me, I feel comfortable the mum was so lovely and caring, all his siblings were so good to me as well, I never imagine that I can find a man like this through social media.
We moved our relationship to the next stage where I invited him to my sister's wedding for him to meet my family,because we have been together for six years now, and my family really love him and he bond with my family easily as if they've known each other for long. I never regretted knowing him and he has been so lovely and helpful to me.
Now we are planning to get marry after my NYSC service and build a lovely and Godly family together. To me not all social media relationship leads to marriage but I found love, joy and peace of mind through social media.
Social media has done good to me so well and unlike the olden days nothing like social media, they marry whosoever their parent want them to marry, they do not have choice to select the person they want to marry. I believe social media works in favour for me.
