My Biggest Dating Mistake: Choosing Work Over Her

I was in the talking stage with a beautiful but insecure girl who needed attention. One Monday she called to say she was nearby, but I was swamped with deliveries. I postponed my tasks and took her to a lounge for a drink. Then a last-minute job came in promising ₦7,000. I asked her to wait, but the work kept me until 6 pm. She left upset, and we agreed to meet another day. The next day I heard she was at the same lounge with another guy. She said she had no airtime to call me. Two days later she went back again. That’s when I realized my choices had cost me her trust.

Have you ever had to choose work money over quality time with someone you were just starting to date? How did it go?

Totally. I've learned that prioritizing time together often builds trust stronger than extra pay ever could.

It seems like he knew she needed attention but still let a delivery promise derail their evening for ₦7,000.

Maybe chasing every extra naira wasn't the worst choice if he could have booked another day for that drink.

Next time, set clear boundaries between work and your personal life so emergencies don't force tough dating choices.
