Mr Macaroni
Actor and content creator Mr Macaroni has opened up about his love life on the Dating In Lagos Show, hosted by Ariyiike Dimples.
He described himself as a “single pringle” who’s not actively searching for a relationship, citing the chaotic nature of dating in Lagos.
Mr Macaroni also revealed that he’s still in love with someone from his past, saying that circumstances have made it impossible for them to be together.
He stressed the importance of perseverance and commitment in relationships.
According to Mr Macaroni, true love requires dedication and understanding, adding that relationships aren’t always filled with joy and romance, but rather a willingness to work through challenges together.
He said, “I’m a single pringle. I’m single and not searching. If you say dating in Lagos, for me, I can’t really define it. But if it’s by what I have heard or what I’ve seen, dating in Lagos is chaotic, or better put, anarchy,” he said.
“I don’t have any personal experience when it comes to dating in Lagos because I’m not actively dating anymore. I’m not seeing anyone. My past relationship wasn’t even in Lagos. The time I really dated when I was in love, I was still in university then.
“I wouldn’t even say that in Lagos, I actively dated anyone. It’s not that I haven’t been in love. There’s someone that I really loved and I still love her, but there are a lot of circumstances that cannot allow us to be together, a lot of different tests. I don’t want to go into it.
“For me, what I think love to be… A lot of people think love is all about jolly good, shopping, spending money, and taking pictures. What I think is that both parties always just look for the best things to attach to them. I strongly believe in perseverance. And this is not a story of you having to suffer with your partner. You don’t necessarily need to suffer to be in a relationship. That is not what I mean. What I mean by that is, it’s not always jolly. When you understand that, and the moment you know that you love a person. When you say you love a person, you are willing to commit yourself 100 per cent.” (The Nation)
