nneneName: NneneHometown: Lithonia, Georgia and Imo State, NigeriaAge: 23Age You First Fell in Love: At this stage in life, I haven't experienced true love.Love Is: Love is beyond mushy romance, it is recognizing the flaws in the other individual and still working to enhance and transform each other. It is someone caring about your mental, spiritual and physical state and growth. I think it is society that has misconstrued the idea of love, it has lost its meaning. As a Nigerian, I have seen that love is a part of life and that you can have everything and still feel incomplete without someone to share it with. Not waiting for components; there again why Nigerians go from single to married is because we look for the right person, there's no need to date multiple people. African culture taught me to also pray to receive real love and to not be fooled by everything that glitters.
