In a recent interview with Vanguard, Nigerian musician Ruggedman talks about his love life. Interview excerpts below:Q: You seem not to be the romantic type?Ruggedman: Says who? I am very romantic when I'm with the right woman. Just like love and marriage, romance isn't something I throw around.
I remember one St. Valentine's day. I went to see my Val but I didn't meet her at home. I tied a rose (a real one not plastic) to her door and wrote my initials on a paper. When she returned and saw it, she knew I was the one who put it there.
The incident that made me put my romance in check happened years ago too on another St. Valentine's day.
I bought loads of gifts and fifteen cards because I don't like getting just one. I even booked a hotel room for dinner and all. All she did was say "you shouldn't have done all these!" She didn't even bring me a card.
After that, I put a leash on my romance. She has to be worth it before I show her that side of me.Q: Can't imagine a girl doing that to almighty Ruggedman.Ruggedman: No. At that time, it was just the start of my career. I hadn't even recorded Baraje.Q: Does that mean you don't have anyone in your life?Ruggedman: Right now I don't have anybody in my life. It's been my work and me for a while now. Although it feels somehow sometimes, especially when I see couples out and about.
But I find solace with the thought that the right person is out there for me.Q: So it means wedding bells isn't ringing any time soon?Ruggedman: I guess so but I'm very happy it's ringing for others and I pray their union stands the test of time.Q: But is it so hard to find the right woman?Ruggedman: I guess it is sometimes especially now that vanity rules. You find it hard knowing she is with you for you or your status.
