Dorcas' full story
The excitement the day I first saw Prince at a hangout was far from usual that I even asked him for a dance🤧and somehow Mr confident was so shy it was glaring. He kept making excuses😂
He sent a message when I got home that read “It was lovely seeing you today, Sweet Chic!😁” and promised to repay the dance whenever our paths crossed.
I recall telling my friend that I know this guy that knows how to hold a good conversation and is very caring😌 and any girl that will have him will be really lucky.😅
We met again at a mutual friend's birthday and bonded as friends, cause we were both dating other people at the time.
At the beginning of the year, I made some conscious decisions about my relationship. I wasn't happy and decided to speak to God about it. During Pastor Nathaniel Bassey's Hallelujah Challenge in February 2022, I wrote down a list of things I wanted and when I wanted it to happen. My church Celebration Church International also thought us about how we can ask God for anything, including our life partners at about the same time during the Month of Love sessions.
In March, a group we both belong to organized a picnic, and I was supposed to take pictures of the event. I showed up a bit late and the first person to walk up to me was Prince, we exchanged pleasantries and I went ahead with my work.
After the event, we chatted and started to talk about life and I noticed I couldn’t stop talking to him. This guy has the qualities of the man I wrote about in my journal🤔. He is my answered prayers and I feel great peace around him.
We got official and it’s been Blissful!
I can’t wait to do forever with him❤️
Prince's full story
Didi and I met just when the heat of COVID 19 was starting to die down in 2021. Prior to this, we had chatted a few times on this WhatsApp group that brought like-minded peeps together and I really enjoyed her energy from our conversations.
The first time I saw her was with a mutual friend of ours at one of our hangouts, and in that split second as she walked into the room, I quickly tapped my friend and asked if that was Dorcas. He said yes with a shock on his face and asked if I hadn't met her before, I know I'd seen pictures et al but this tall, slim, extremely beautiful woman blew my mind straight up...I walked up to her, we hugged and I said you're so tall 😂. Tall people no plenty for my village like that 🤭
Music was playing and she asked for a dance, as jovial and crazy as I was, I suddenly became shy...me o! See fine woman start to dey melt 😂😂😂...anyways I never danced with her but I kept consoling myself that I wasn't feeling fine that's why I didn't dance with her.
After that time, we still saw each other but as friends, since we were both dating at that time. Fast forward to early this year, I had just finished a 7-day fast and one of my prayer points was finding a spouse. It happened that on the last day of that fast a friend invited me for a picnic and guess who came along? Sister Didi!
She came to work and I came to just be around people. She was taking photos and I was learning how to play American football. We sat down and spoke briefly and that was the first time I legit looked at her in a different light...I saw how beautiful she looked without any make-up on, it was so effortless.
We went home and what seemed like an 'it was really nice to see you chat' turned into a very long conversation, it was past 12 and my eyes weren't tired. We began to talk about past relationships, our goals, dreams and expectations in life
I began to see the kind of woman God kept showing me, I admired her relationship with God, her love for family and her drive for her career...these three things are topmost on my priority list. I noticed the need to always call her and share about personal things and how I spent my day.
I felt a great deal of peace whenever I imagined thoughts of us being together but me knowing my heart can mislead me decided to pray about it...it was after my prayers I knew she was gonna be my wife. I got a revelation about our engagement. I went and got that exact ring and proposed to the love of my life
It's been the best decision I've ever made all my life.
