“When a person has not experienced a thing, they cannot explain how it is. I also want to say that issues cannot affect people the same way, we are all humans and the way we accept things is different. If I see someone and I like him, other people might see him and not like him because what might be appealing to me about him might be a turn off for the other person.”
The young actress also spoke about her relationship with someone who is in the entertainment industry like her. According to Ashabi, she never considered being in a relationship with a celebrity, but she does not expect it to affect her career.
According to her, Portable has been very supportive and is ready to do more. She said:
“I am happy because it was not in my plans and I never considered marrying an actor talkless of a musician but God did not make it the end of my journey because some people’s careers will end when they face situations they did not expect. But I’m happy because I can’t see the future but I sense that it is not the end, it’s actually a new beginning and a way forward for me. I’m happy because he (Portable) is supportive and he is ready to be more supportive.”
Challenges actress dating Portable faced
However, Ashabi admitted that she faced challenges in the course of dating Portable. The actress noted that she was concerned about people taunting her, but she later decided to do what makes her happy.
In her words:
“I faced a lot but I thank God. Right from time, since I started dating Portable, I was scared that people would taunt and abuse me but I had to sit down and think about if people could console me when I am not happy, when something is my happiness and it’s not that I’m looking for the approval of others, then I have to go for it.”
She also said:
“I’m happy because my man makes me happy because if he is not there for me, today won’t be possible so I’m happy.”
