“My Backup Boyfriend Proposed To Me, What Should I Do?” -Confused Lady

A young Nigerian lady has written to relationship blogger, Joro Olumofin, that she is confused because her ‘back-up’ boyfriend proposed to her and she said yes.

The young lady has been hiding her engagement ring from her main boyfriend who is yet to pop the question to her.

Here’s what she wrote below ;

"Good evening,

I currently cohabit with my boyfriend of 4 years for 6 months now, he is serious but wants to make money first before popping the question.

Yesterday a backup boyfriend i had but hardly see, proposed to me. i said yes but i hide the ring from my main boyfriend. How do i get out from this dilemma.

Both of them are still trying to make money but this other guy loves me more.

I don’t have enough money now, i would have gone to rent a place urgently till my new fiancee is ready to do wedding .

I’ve been deceitful and i regret so badly! Guilt is killing me. i need advice on how to break the news and get free joro."

In fact, these days, it's first come, first served.

After almost five years, he hasn't proposed because he's waiting for a certain amount, he may never propose. It's going to be even harder because you are living with him and he's already getting the fringe benefits of a marriage.

The other guy is also waiting for money, yet he prioritized you...

Abeg, don't over debate it. If you must marry one of them at all, let it be the one who put a ring on it.
Like you have clearly stated, he loves you more. Truth is, Mr Live-In Lover fit don see you finish tay-tay.
