This piece is from nigerianwedding on Instagram. It is about the veil of behaviour the social Nigerian ladies now wear around, it reveals the hurt and true personalities behind the veil. Enjoy it.
"Yes, you can sit with us"
.
We call ourselves bad bitches but get mad when our lover is a dog! We act as if catching feelings was a disease & should catch flights before we catch it. .
We mask our emotions pretending to be unbothered when in actuality we are crying inside. Some of us drown our sorrows with liquor and hide behind the words "Turned up" as an excuse for our less than ladylike demeanor. .
We listen to a popular song then treat it as the gospel and believe we are tough, telling any women to "Try Me"! When in fact some of you have never had a fight and don't want anyone to try anything! We think it's ok to tell the world we were on our "Worst behaviors" for our birthdays. .
We've become mean girls captioning our photos "You can't sit with us"! We shout "No new friends" and "These hoes ain't loyal" when good loyal friends new or old is all we want. .
.
We've finally become emotionless, no longer caring and having "0" fucks to give since we've run out of them. No way do I believe you don't care! No way do I believe you don't believe in love, that you don't give a fuck, that you're mean, no longer feel and don't care about making new friends. I don't believe any of this reverse speech! .
How & why don't I believe it you ask? Well, it's because I'm in tune with my emotions and perfectly fine displaying them. I still believe in love. I can pay a woman a compliment and not be uncomfortable nor feel inferior doing so. I remain warm despite coldness from my past. I give a fuck about many things and will never run out of doing so because I care. .
I say all this to remind you that you don't have to follow what may be normal behavior and popular rhetoric. .
Be you, be a lady, be soft and take the armor off your heart. Therefore, stop flipping the script, saying opposite of what you truly want and mean. .
You may miss the most amazing people, conversations, your future spouse and the blessings you've been praying for. .
Start being warm, loving & kind again. You'll start attracting the same love & light you oh so want and deserve.-Pascale Rowe
