¨He was what I needed at that point in my life¨ Maureen Waititu does not regret falling in love with ex, Frankie

Kenyan social media influencer, Maureen Waititu has opened up on having fought for her relationship, tooth and nail until she could do it no more.

During her interview with Grace Msalame, the mother of two admitted that at first, her love bubble with Frankie, was the best gift she had at that time.

However, with time, came duties and responsibilities, among them parenthood, which none of them had experienced previously.

Struggles

Juggling parenthood with career life proved too tough a battle to win, eventually escalating into a pool of problems.

But of course, he was a very nice guy, charming. He did the most with the dinners and all that then we became parents and of course, things are different. You know challenges are there. We were both so new to parenthood and here I am trying to build my career in Law. He is also building his career and problems started coming in slowly by slowly. But I felt like instead of getting better, it got worse until whatever happened, happened eventually.

Well, for the YouTuber, everything happened for a reason and does not regret having shared those moments she did, with the popular gym instructor, Frankie.

It´s always a difficult question because I look back and I´m like, it doesn´t make any sense, but in a way, I attracted him into my life because he was what I needed at that point in my life. And that´s the importance of dealing with cycles and dealing with whatever is going on within you because whatever is within you, is what goes on on the outside.

Faith

Narrating the order of events at the time, Maureen explained how she gave God a timeline, after which, she would lose hope.

 I gave him a timeline and I told him ´God, if by this time, you don´t hit me with a big nil sign or a train to tell me what direction to go, I don´t know what I´ll do.´ And he´s so gracious. You know when they say women leave a situation in bits, first a suitcase at the door. We fight till the very end.

Closing off, Maureen realized that it was no longer about her and her preferences, but the kids and her future.

And I fought Grace. I contemplated, I moved back and forth. I did everything I could. Eventually I figured it´s not about me anymore. It´s about my kids, my future.
