I have a friend who was having issues with her relationship. The guy she was dating cared less about her. She was the one to call and do visitings.

So I asked her not to call the guy for a month, and let see if he's gonna check up on her.

She agreed. A month passed, NO CALL!
I remember how shattered and depressed she was. She felt so bad. All she needed was just a phone call. She had sacrificed everything for the relationship—her emotion, her feeling, her money, her time, everything! Just a call, yet this man wouldnt call or text to check up on her.
She told me how she felt so tempted to call, perhaps it was a case of him losing his phone or the phone got damaged. So I asked her to use another person's number to call, just to confirm. She did. She heard him shouting "Hello oo?" "Who is on the line please?" "Are you there?"
On the phone, before she disconnected the call with tears flowing in her eyes.

They had no fight prior to the time I asked her to take that decision. In fact, he was still at his place a week before, cooking for him and having sex with him all weekend.
She went through depression, heartbreak and all, and I remember her wanting to end it all.

She felt so pained towards the ghosting attitude of the guy that she wanted to even deal with him with whatever means; but I and some other friends advised her against it.
The battle is of the Lord as they say.

All this was in 2018. She had moved on and gotten a better relationship. Their wedding is even stated for this year.
Last night a friend called me she saw that her ex when she wanted to withdraw some cash at an ATM stand in Ilesha. She said he's become a mad man, carrying some rubbish around, while walking naked. I asked if she was sure about what she was saying, and she said she was.
Then the little thought got to me, though my humanity ass would still pity him:

"There is no peace, says the Lord, unto the wicked"

—Isaiah 57:21
