Post London, TOj and I have kept in touch - primarily extended conversations about everything; work, life, failed loves and the stereotypes of Nigerian dudes in London as being primarily baby mama creators rather than the marrying kind.
Not sure where that leaves me, being the never married, single-since-April-2011 dude who has only being in two relationships all his life. We do have a knack for great conversations between us, it must be said, in addition to all the elements of the future Mrs S spreadsheet that she checks.
Switching to a Blackberry in January now look like a stroke of genius - thanks to that we’ve been able to keep in touch fairly cheaply via BBM and WhatsApp as opposed to needing to send actual SMSs.
If there’s anything my failed dalliance with L taught me, it is that great conversations count for nothing in the overall scheme of things. Clarity and definition are it!
Fingers crossed
