HOW WE MET:
It was a dating platform we came across each other, with Piotr liking my picture, he said hello and I responded, after several weeks of chats we decided to meet physically
FIRST DATE:
We had our ist date on 23rd February 2023 at Turtle bay, NH UK. We had a really nice time so we kind of clicked on that basis especially because we both love good food.
FIRST SURPRISE WITH BEEN WITH HIM:
I was surprised with the fact that this Oyibo(Piotr) as Nigerians fondly call them loved the meal which was rare as it was an African cuisine. He even suggested we streamlined it on our next date to a Nigerian restaurant (sounded like a second invite), I was thrilled to know he was open to try Nigerian meals and it was exciting for me especially because I looked forward to having great meal nothing more. We had several more dates ,one of which he followed me to church, I felt he won’t enjoy it as much as I did because he was the only white there but he told me he enjoyed the difference in their worship style and offered to accompany me if I don’t mind, but I didn’t take anything seriously as I was avoiding getting hurt.
WHAT ATTRACTED ME TO HIM:
At the beginning communications from me was off and on, but one thing I liked about him was how persistently he tried to reach out despite our busy schedule, he was consistent and still is.
PROPOSAL:
Fast forward to Feb this year, he asked me to accompany him to meet his family in Poland, that was when I realised this was getting serious for him. His family were really hospitable and I enjoyed my stay even much more than I anticipated. The time we spent there made us bond and we both felt the connection. When we returned back to the U.K, he suggested we visit my Country too so he can see where I’m from. We traveled to Nigeria in March and spent 2weeks visiting Abuja and Lagos respectively. It was so much fun and laughter meeting with friends and family. It was his first time visiting Nigeria and on March 28th 2024 at the beach in Lagos, he popped the question and I said a big yes!!! And today what we share has brought us to this point.
