A Ugandan man by the name Mr Kilo @kilogoddy who proposed to his fiancée in viral post uploaded on September 6, 2021, has returned to Twitter to announce that they have broken up.
Back then, when he proposed, it was all blissful for the couple.
“She said yes on my birthday and I have never been soo excited all my life. Love is a beautiful thing,” the man wrote back then.
The post attracted many hearty congratulatory messages from the man’s friends and followers even as the man on behalf of his girlfriend revealed that they were already making plans to settle down including drawing up their house plan.
He said it had been scary to propose on his birthday but it was a risk worth taking for him. Fifteen months later, the man tagged his initial post to announce the breakup.
“Update: It ended in tears but we move. I did my very best but unfortunately things didn’t go as planned, back on these streets,” Mr Kilo’s post reads.
He fended off questions even as he warned online users against disrespecting his ex.
Mr Kilo also spoke of the lessons he had learnt and that he will do better next time, saying it took him three months to accept that the relationship was over.
“Next time, don’t propose. A real man proposes with a pregnancy, not kneeling. Inbox if you want to join a group of real men,” one users advised him.
