This Toasting thing sef.......


Okay! So I was lying on my bed and this phone call comes in and it's this guy I met two weeks back.

Guy: Kanyinsola, how are you
Me: I'm fine. You?
Guy: I'm not fine o.
Me: Why? Is anything wrong?
Guy: Yes o!
Me: How wrong?
Guy: Well,.... It's you.

Ehen...... Then I knew where he was going. Guys shaaaaa.... Are you people not tired of this style? I could guess the next thing he was going to say.

Me: Ooh!
Guy: Yes Kanyin. I've been thinking a lot about you. I didn't know I was goin to tell you this but....
Me: But what?
Guy: I love you.

Chai!!!! This is a guy that met me only once, got my number from a friend and two weeks later, this is what he has to tell me.
It just got me thinking. Men and their lines. Wake up guys!!! Some strategies are stale.

Hhmmmm.... I miss those days I got Love letters from "boys" (secondary school days). Do you remember? The letter starts like this....

"I am picking my pen, from the Basket of Love to write you this letter of my affection towards you.... bla bla bla"


*Sighs*. I miss those days. Nobody gets or writes that anymore.
I was checking through my old documents and I found some of those letters I kept. I read them all over again and I could feel the innocence. Those kind of notes you read and you get butterflies in your stomach like a school girl. *Sigh* I really felt young again ( I'm not old o).


*Laughing* Some boys also did it wrongly then anyway... I heard lines like this in secondary school.

"The first day I saw you, I knew you were 'the one'"
The One?! In J.S.S. 3? The One ke! I no dey do o!

"I dreamt you were my wife"
This line was used by three boys in one week. That was in S.S.2

"I'm the head boy. Date me and you'll be my First Lady"
Whoa!!! I was soooo pissed at this guy. That was in S.S.1

Huh.... Those were the good days. When the guy didn't like you because of your curves or your big boobs.... we only had "agbalumo" on our chests then.... Laughs or your chest was completely flat! Nobody could see your "yansh" In your oversize pinafore sef ( My pinafore was really big).

These days, the man falls in love with your face or your figure first and then every other thing can be added.
Anyway, I'm not condemning you guys o. Hormones are to be blamed sometimes, but I've met correct guys. Guys that have done their homework very well. His start up line alone is enough to sweep you off your feet.
This is my favourite of them.
This guy met me at P.Y.E Jibowu. He saw me with a friend and this was the first thing he said
"Wow! I would love to have two different versions of you running around my house someday. Please, please be my wife"
Chikena!!! The startup line was so catchy, we talk for the rest of the day. Though I didn't date him, he got my attention. We became good friends sha.

Anyway, I just wanted to share some of my "toasting" experience with you.
Regardless of anything, I believe toasting is in the mouth of the toaster,.. and accepting is in the mind of the toasted... *Laughing*

  1. Just read it. It was really cool and interesting. Though I did not have those experiences earlier because of the only boys high school I attended but it really appealed to the fantasies we had back then. Keep trailblazing!

    'U are so beautiful, my heart leaps everytime I set my eyes on you. I care about and love you. Please dont break my heart. Take a look into my eyes and you will discover that there's a weakness I suffer. I will do anything just for this one chance. Oluwatofunmi, this is just to tell you that I love and need you'.
    Some guys still write notes. Just like this one.

  7. @Oluwaseunfunmi: I'm not hiding anything ma'am. Yes, we did have a lot of induction ceremonies and parties but I did not attend any. I've never attended any wedding, birthday, burial ceremonies et al.

    You no go blame me. Na the church wey I been dey go. Television was known back then as the devil's toolbox. It was weird o!

    @Sugarlips: Was it boring? No, it was not. I enjoyed every bit of it. I was always enthused back then when we abused girls. It was a guys world and I liked it.

    @Oluwatofunmi: Na wah o! Them don dey toast you too? The LORD is your muscle. When I was your age, I was busy reading and reading and reading. ***Sounding like a grandfather***
