From awkward sleepovers to unbelievable mix-ups, these stories prove that friends can make life interesting in ways you will never forget.
- His girlfriend went home with my T-Shirts – Scott*
My guy’s new girlfriend wanted to come over, so he came by and used my place at that time. He went out to buy food for his girlfriend, and I stayed with her watching a movie because he said I should keep her company for a while. While we were talking, the girl asked if I was squatting at her boyfriend’s place and I said yes, that he’s the one helping me out cause of funds. Then she went into my wardrobe and took some new clothes I had just bought to “look nice” for church on Sunday. Everywhere first blur. I was angry inside, but I couldn’t say anything. I had to text my guy to ask what was going on?
Long story short, my guy took five of my T-Shirts and gave them to this lady when she was leaving, and then said he didn’t even know she had taken them. Omoh I just picked his phone to call the girl but he later begged me. I let it all go but the new clothes were the most painful part because I didn’t get to flex in church.
2. She was touching me inappropriately – Fiona*
She wasn’t really a friend. She came to sleep over in my room only for me to wake up and felt her hands inside my cloth. Guess what ? She was touching my boobs.
I slap wetin no good for her face
3. She couldn’t pay back a favour – Salma*
I housed her for two sessions when she had nowhere to stay. My coursemate told me not to take her in but I did. When I was in Ibadan, I needed a place to stay. She told me her Alfa Said no one should come to her place because I told her I’m not coming with food stuff.
4. Bro gave his last coins to save face – GT*
I remember sometime in 2022, one of my guys who had just arrived in the UK came to my area for an interview and ended up staying over at my place. As he was leaving, he gave my wife £50 and my son £20. But when he got to the train station, he called me, asking me to step away from where my wife was because he wanted to talk. He told me to send him £70, saying that the money he had given my wife and son was from his last card.
Omo, I laughed so hard that day. He even begged me not to tell my wife. Thank God for life sha; he has settled well now and is doing fine.
5. Borrowed them money and then became enemies – Dayo*
In April 2022, a friend borrowed 800k from me to support his travelling to Kuwait. In December 2022, another friend borrowed 500k from me to support his travelling to Canada.
Both of them are no longer my friends because I decided to collect my money back in 2023 when life became hard.
