To me, I couldn't figure what else a married man with 2 kids wanted with Edafe. That wasn't bad enough but was shocked how she had played right into him. Whatever he was using was working because that first clash led to a lot of other clashes.

I thought after that incident, everything would go back to normal. Well, at first it did.

Ike's kids had gotten fond of Edafe and would always want to speak to her. That in itself showed how much they had spoken and communicated even while he was at home. She would tell me how he would go out for a stroll and speak to her endless, only to come back in and pass the phone to his 6 year old daughter and 3 year old son.

Ike had invited her on countless occasions to lunch and dinner (and he was sure to add that it was the kids that wanted to see her)

It went on and on. She always deleted his pin off her Blackberry Messenger and according to her; it always mysteriously found its way back to her Messenger without her knowing how.

Beneath is a chat fight that came up when one of his issues came up

Edafeeee™: When all you fuss about is Ike. Making me feel m doing something wrong. I keep begging every week. Who survives like that?

I wasn't sure what to think anymore. Maybe she was right, maybe she wasn't. But all the hiding was driving me nuts. Trying to break up wouldn't be an issue but what if I was faced with the same issues in another relationship, would I simply jump ship once more?

I decided to stick on and fight some more for what I believed in.

A holiday and was glad to have some time off work. We hung out and decided to be alone. We got our time off and then Edafe's phone rings. Guess who was on the other end? You bet that right. Ike was at it again. Edafe then abandon me and stayed on the phone for close to 2 hours with him. The last I heard, "even my boyfriend is here but it's ok to speak to you".

I decided I had had it this time. That surely was the last straw.

Trust Edafe with her skills. She somehow explained it away and once more, I let it go.

I'm not saying I'd given all my time to the relationship but I was trying to give as much as I could to it. We always found time to talk everyday. We were still an item and just couldn't understand what was happening right about now. To me, she was simply slipping away and she didn't know it or didn't seem to care.

In all of this, I also have friends (female ones of course), but they were just friends.  At least, my chats with them didn't clear up mysteriously and I was plain with Edafe with discussions with them. I could tell her anything and everything. Though cheating never crossed my mind. Not that I didn't see other attractive ladies (and I wasn't sort of ladies falling for me, I don't look that bad).

Issue after issue came up and we kept settling. She would come back and apologize; stating that she didn't mean to hurt me and all.

But still that didn't stop her from speaking to Ike. Sometimes, she would come clean and tell me that he called and she didn't pick up (he calling I believed always but her not picking up part, emmmmmm.........)
