Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here!
Welcome to another heartwarming episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is titled Breakfast in Bed, and it’s one for the books—a blend of romance, heartbreak, and some hard-to-swallow truths.
In this episode, I take you back to 2017, to a friend’s party where a random game of Truth or Dare led me to meet Fola, the woman who would redefine what love—and betrayal—meant to me. What started with me begging her for her number (to complete the dare) turned into a rollercoaster of morning texts, pineapple deliveries, and late-night laughs that made me believe in love.
Fola wasn’t just any girl; she was thoughtful, attentive, and had this knack for showing she cared in the smallest yet most meaningful ways. But as our relationship blossomed, cracks began to show—cracks shaped like her "cousin" Bro Joe. What followed was a messy journey of trust issues, denials, and a breakup over breakfast that left me questioning everything.
This episode explores the sweetness of love, the bitterness of heartbreak, and the lessons hidden in between. Whether you’ve ever felt blindsided in a relationship or served up breakfast only to get served heartbreak, this story will hit home.
So, grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and listen to Breakfast in Bed. And as always, remember—Edgar doesn’t lie. Check Edgar out!
