He Paid Me ₦10K Just to Leave Him Alone" – A True Story About Boundaries and Unexpected Blessings

    Let me tell you a true story that still blows my mind.

    Last year, I kept checking in on this guy I knew—let’s call him “Bayo.” We weren’t that close, but I noticed he was quiet and withdrawn.
    So I kept asking:
    "Bro, are you good?"
    "Just checking in."
    "Hope everything’s okay?"

    One day, he replied with:

          “Guy, you’re too persistent. I’m not in a talking mood. If I send you ₦10K now, will you stop texting me?”

    At first, I thought he was joking.
    Until I got an alert. ₦10,000. Instantly.

    I was confused… and lowkey hurt. But I replied with:
    “No worries, my G. I get it. We all process things differently. I’ll fall back.”

     

     

    Here’s the twist…

    Months later, he called me to apologize.
    He told me he was going through depression, and my messages felt overwhelming—not because they were bad, but because he couldn’t handle kindness at the time.

    That ₦10K wasn’t a bribe. It was his way of saying: “I see you, but I can’t deal.”

     

     

    Why I’m Sharing This

    Sometimes, your good intentions may not be received the way you expect.
    People have their own battles.
    And money? It can show up in the most unusual parts of a story—not always as gain, but sometimes as a message.

     

     

    Have you ever been in a situation where someone pushed you away—even when you were trying to help?
    Or…
    Have YOU ever pushed someone away for peace of mind?
