True Love Over Exploitation And Manipulation

_Seiyefa John✍️🎬

Permit me to provoke you to think. Can black Africans in Africa love? Can (we) blacks that live here in Africa really love? I am asking because sometimes I think we are too hungry (for love), too selfish and manipulative to love. It is my opinion that, after the early infatuative love stages in our lives, we don't love anymore, we just go into affairs base(d) on interest. Like politicians practicing politics.

By interest I mean, the male or the female starts to think, 'what does he have that I want or what does she have that I need? Is he handsome or is she beautiful? Is he a 9 over 10? Can I flaunt him/her before my friends? Is he/she fine enough to be presented in public? Does he have a huge cock that can satisfy me? Is she good in bed? What can he offer or afford me? What? What?? And more what(s)

I ask, 'are Africans cable of love and loving? Are we love worthy? Can we really love? Well, I speak for the vast majority of poor folks in the continent. Love is hard to come by here in the jungle (called Africa). I love you, I love you amongst the vast poor majority na scam.
Almost everybody de find wetin them go gain inside love affair. No be affection and emotional comfort people de search for in love again.

We have left the fantasy and satisfying feelings of love, we have put aside emotion and affection for one another. We are presently all about haves and don't have. We draw boundaries and establish does and don'ts. What is good for the goose is also good for the ganga philosophy is what we are operating by today. I advocate that love should lead. Rather than exploitation and manipulation. Loving is far from receiving, loving is giving. You express love by sharing your haves and sacrificing your everything.

Until we learn to love humbly, respectfully and sharefully, we are yet to love him/her appropriately.
