Despite his initial kindness in offering to cover her transportation costs, his behaviour took a different turn when he suggested they spend the night at a hotel.

When she declined, he refused to provide her with the promised fare, leaving her stranded.

The lady was forced to embark on a lengthy and stressful trek from Ikeja to Abulegba, a journey that left her physically and emotionally drained.

Her ordeal was compounded by the emotional distress she experienced upon returning home, where she spent hours in tears.

In her words:

"Years back. This guy invited me on a date. I only had my tfare for going and I told him. I got there and he said we should lodge. I refused. He then left and refused to give me tfare to go. My people, I trekked from Ikeja to abulegba. I cried for hours when I got home."

"I had a similar experience but I had transport fare. He picked me up from my house, drove me far away and immediately I noticed he was driving into a hotel, I told him to reverse the car. He did but refused to take me home. I insisted, he parked then came down and walked away."

Ifechukwu added:

"One thing my grandfather drummed into our mum which our mum passed to us is "Always have your own". This made us cultivate self-reliance very early. When going on a date,assume you're the one responsible for the date and act accordingly. You'll never be at the mercy of anyone."
