A Nigerian lady recently stirred emotional reactions on social media after revealing that her boyfriend broke up with her due to incompatible genotype following a medical test.
In a heartfelt TikTok post, she shared photos that captured her emotional distress, including one where she’s seen crying over the breakup.
Alongside the images, she issued a warning to women, captioning it, “Girl to girl, before you start any relationship, please know your partner’s genotype.”
She also posted a screenshot of her boyfriend’s final message to her, which read: “Hi, how are you? I’m sorry for the silence; I had no choice. Remember the day we went for the test? If we continue, it might just waste your time, and you’re not getting any younger.”
“Our genotypes aren’t compatible; we’re both AS, which means we can’t marry each other. I’m sorry, but I need to make this adjustment. I’ll still fulfill my promise.”
Her post quickly attracted a wave of sympathy and support, with many people leaving comments to express their thoughts and offer words of comfort. The discussion sparked by her experience highlights the importance of genotype compatibility in relationships, particularly in the Nigerian context where sickle cell disease is a prevalent concern.
