How can I ever forget these things? Poverty poverty you dealt with me."

"That person aren’t your friend take it or leave it & they have already been seeing at your back & already agreed to marry else he won’t have the audacity to come tell you & she won’t also have agreed if the both of them haven’t been seeing secretly & discussed it."
@Be ni ta added:
"I know someone this same thing happened to, but in his own case it wasn’t about him not being rich. He wasn’t nice to the girl and the girl was genuinely a good girl so his friend started dating the girl and married her."
