Dorcas Shola Fapson, also known as Ms. DSF, shared a personal experience on the Bahd and Boujee Podcast where she revealed that a man once rejected her because she lost her mother as a child.
According to her, the man expressed that he couldn’t be in a relationship with someone who didn’t come from a two-parent household.
During the podcast episode co-hosted by Tolanibaj and Moet Abebe, Ms. DSF recalled the hurtful remark made by the man due to her upbringing. She was shocked by the man’s narrow-mindedness and inability to see beyond her past.
She said:
“The most craziest thing that someone has ever said to me was when I told a guy that I lost my mum as a child and he said he could never date me.
“He said that he can’t date someone who wasn’t raised in a two-parent household. And I get that but could I have prevented my mum from dying? Is that my fault?”
“I can relate because someone has also told me that before. The reason was because he was also raised by a single parent. So, according to him, he didn’t want a child from someone with a similar upbringing. That was his excuse but I didn’t think it’s a reasonable excuse”.
