January has finally released us from its shackles. Now, to enter another kind of bondage: Aww-inducing pictures and videos of relationship people scattered all over the internet. If you’re single, I have one advice for you: Look for someone’s relationship and enter this Valentine season. You can’t be left behind. In today’s newsletter, we interviewed a couple who’ve been on-and-off for five years because of the guy’s depressive episodes. Yes, it’s as much of a rollercoaster as it sounds. We also compiled Nigerian adults’ dumbest moments, gave tips for the single pringles and got someone to share why she ran away from home at 16. 👇🏾 Tife Editor In This Letter: - 1 [24 of the dumbest things Nigerians did as adults](=.HIaJaoXmOADCg-_wry_Hh0lKLWJqg2MWEu0JRenm2b8) - 2 [I was homeless at 16 because my mum chose her husband](=.mCebPhdMAu38ZLQ3J_Xtys4CwFiXm74xteAaeEaJ06k) - 3 [5 ways to ensure you’re the apple of someone’s eye this Valentine](=.xqDZWRMVnIYWRJYQuHHxlA7IEEsi9bF534YxBjQ2PMA) LOVE LIFE The Inside Gist: We Broke Up 5 Times Because of His Depression =.fd6kUvqsFAGvL9P1e3nBe_bOuqnT8HWG7By1tLpjuK0 Heyy Lolade. This might be the first time I've read a depression-related Love Life. How did the story happen? The female subject is a friend of a friend. One time, she was talking to a couple of us about how she and her boyfriend were always breaking up, yet they never seemed to be able to get over each other. This conversation happened sometime last year, so you can imagine how long it took to get them to agree to speak on Zikoko. Interestingly, I didn’t know the depression part of their story till we did the interview. But it makes sense now. The babe is trying, though. It must’ve taken a great deal of understanding to keep taking him back. I know, right?! But sometimes, it's love that makes you do things you might not ordinarily do. There must be other things he does right. Maybe the good times are really good like she mentioned. I hope a part of her doesn't just feel too bad to leave him.
