A man identified as Pope Itodo has recently made headlines after abruptly ending his relationship of three days with a lady over her poor use of punctuation marks.
Itodo claims that in the three days that the woman began messaging her, she has not used a single punctuation mark.
He continued, that attempting to understand the proper sense of her statement without the punctuation gave him a headache.
He wrote:
“I know I just met this babe but I can’t do this anymore. Three days of chatting and she has not used a single comma, full stop, or even question mark! She will just say “Have you eaten”. What is that? Are you asking a question or telling me something!? Am I asking for too much? I am not even saying you should use anything fancy like a semi colon, hyphen, or exclamation mark! And apart from lagos all states in Nigeria are proper nouns! What is abuja?”.
The incident has however left many both amused and bewildered, as most of them couldn’t understand why something as trivial as punctuation marks could bring an end to a relationship.
Taking to the comment section, one Aninath Okpongete wrote, “Correct her politely,use a gentle helpful tone,let her know it’s a big deal for you.. That’s if you really care about the relationship sir.”
Mercy Ezeam said: “I think you deserve what you are getting and please stop disturbing us you are not the only ons looking for comma fulls top exclamation mark apostrophe you leave Lagos and find comma where you dropped it.”
Vee Vian commented: “This drives me so crazyyyyy… I legit just leave the conversation for you, before I pull my hair out. I do not ask for much… Just put a bladddyyy question mark, when you ask a question.”
