Joro Olumofin, a Nigerian relationship expert, has advised Nigerian women to consider having a backup boyfriend, which he refers to as a “contingency boyfriend,” to potentially avoid heartbreak and depression.
According to Joro, a contingency boyfriend is “a guy who fits all your criteria of a husband material but is your platonic friend (no sex involved). You talk to him often, you hang out with him and involve him in your daily activities, and he’s aware of your boyfriend.”
He strongly encouraged women to have a contingency boyfriend whom they could potentially marry within 6 months after a breakup. He mentioned that many women without backup boyfriends experienced emotional hardships following breakups and may end up being involved with multiple partners until finding another boyfriend.
Joro wrote, “Ladies, 2020 is here. Do you have a Backup BF? Start recruiting a backup BF today. With the level of heartbreak and depression amongst ladies who just got out of relationships, I believe it’s time for ladies to have a ‘CONTINGENCY BOYFRIEND’; a backup boyfriend.”
He continued to clarify, “A contingency boyfriend is a guy who fits all your criteria of a husband material but is your platonic friend (no sex involved).
He concluded his advice by stating, “I strongly suggest that every lady in a relationship should have a backup boyfriend who she can marry 6 months after her breakup in other to avoid Depression and the rebound/waiting syndrome. #ThinkLikeAMan 90% of men have Contingency Girlfriends. That’s why after a breakup men get married 3 months later.”
