I am married and way late into my thirties, but no matter what I do, I can’t get people to show me respect. I should tell you what I look like. I am a 5 ft 6 slim girl. Oh! I mean woman. (I guess I am beginning to give up on this fight) well, I guess I just want to know I am not the only one feeling this way.
What I have had To Go Through
I have once been in church and I was told to get up from the adult church and go to the teenage church I was 23 years old then. I was like “Oluwa wetin dey occur?” my aunt had to bail me out by explaining my life circle to the church usher.
I am also tired of showing people my wedding pictures to prove that I am married. They don’t even my wedding band serious, still asking me out every time and asking me JAMB question “Are you serious” or “Are you sure you are married” as in! The matter tire me.
The Things I do To Make People Respect me. Better Still, Fear Me
So, I created a defense mechanism by exercising my intelligence. Wait o, no be sey I know booooookkkk like that o! But I am quite life smart. So, I give great opinions, suggestions and create order to things. I think it is a God given super power if I am being honest.
But I added jara. I became a tomboy all through my university days. (Husband doing his best to refine me now. I wish him good luck *wink*). So, nobody mess with me. But you want to know what? Nothing worked for those egotistic maniacs, those bossy buffoons. Hmmm.
That is why I am here. I need your help and if you need help like me, please let us form an association about this and have something like an AA meetings.
