Dear LIB readers: My lesbian
partner is threatening to expose
me
I would like to share my problem and hopefully
get some good advice on this predicament I have
found myself.
I am 24 and grew up in a Christian home where
going to church was the only recreational activity
allowed in my house. My parents are pastors and
they pastor a large pentecostal church in lagos.
Growing up in my house felt like a military camp,
friends from school weren't allowed over and the
only kids I got to associate with were pastors
kids like myself and all we
were allowed to discuss was the bible because
watching TV wasn't even allowed except its a
gospel program.
So naturally not having friends turned me into a
quiet girl and I was the obedient and perfect girl
to everyone and most parents wished they had
me, but what all didn't know was that behind the
quiet charming girl I was a totally different
person. Years of being monitored and not being
allowed to interact socially had messed up my
sanity and sexuality, because since I was allowed
to play with only girls I had learnt to develop
emotional feelings for only girls.
Fast track to 4months ago, I have always kept my
sexuality in check because I'm a pastors kid from
an influential home and I couldn't just act out
even if i wanted to. So one evening I was visiting
a friend after work hours and I got introduced to
this other friend of hers, and from the minute I set
my eyes on her I knew I needed to have her and
nature smiled on me and somehow we became an
item.
She was everything I wanted and she fulfilled all
my guilty pleasures and she was my first, thou I
kept my last name and family background from
her. Two weeks ago she calls me up and says
that I haven't been treating her right that I never
told her I was from a super rich home and since I
had a name to protect that she needs 5million
naira for Christmas shopping.
At first I thought she was crazy but now she's
threatening to tell my folks and the entire church.
My parents may have gotten it wrong in the child
training section but they are good people and it
would ruin their reputation if the church finds out.
So do I tell them the truth about my sexuality and
impending disaster or do I pay her the N5m or do
I just take the long rope and walk away from
home and never return.
Because either way I can't change my sexuality
and I have 2weeks to go before all hell breaks
loose.
