My name is Sharon, and I live in Nairobi, Kenya. A few months ago, I went through one of the most painful and confusing experiences of my life. I had been in a relationship with my boyfriend for over four years. We shared dreams, laughter, and countless memories. I trusted him completely, confiding in him about my deepest fears and hopes. I genuinely believed that we were meant to spend our lives together. I had already started imagining our future our wedding, the children we would raise, and the life we would build side by side. I invested so much of myself emotionally into that relationship that it became a central part of my identity.
Then, without warning, everything changed. One evening, he sat me down and said he no longer wanted to be in the relationship. At first, I couldn’t comprehend what he was saying. I kept asking why, searching for an explanation, and trying to understand if there was anything I could do to fix it. He gave vague reasons about “needing space” and “finding himself,” but nothing felt real. I felt like the ground had been ripped from under me. The love and trust I had given so freely were suddenly gone, leaving me heartbroken, confused, and questioning my worth. For weeks, I felt trapped in grief, unable to sleep or focus, replaying our memories over and over in my mind. It felt like a nightmare from which I could not wake up.TO READ MORE,TAP HERE
