Love can make people do crazy things, sometimes even irrational ones.

He had no new job lined up, and he didn’t know their relationship was about to end.

He said he resigned from his lucrative position in the oil firm because he wanted to be closer to his partner, who lived in another city. He hoped that by moving to Ibadan, they would have a better chance of making their relationship work.

Broke up two weeks later

However, things didn’t go as planned. He said they broke up about a week or two after he arrived in Ibadan.

He didn’t explain why they split up but admitted that he regretted his decision.

The man said he knew he was stupid for giving up his job for love and asked people not to judge him.

The story of @Phoenix23 shows how love can blind people and make them act impulsively.
