Main or side?

Since we're still in the atmosphere of love as today is post Valentine, I'm forced to base today's article in yet the popular word for the whole month of February; love!

So I was going through statuses on my whatsapp and I stumbled upon a post by a friend, where he mentioned that yesterday being Valentine's day was meant for the 'main chicks' while today which I like to call or tag as post Valentine is meant for the 'side chicks'.

So I don't confuse you guys with this seeming Nigerian language, a main chick is the publicly acknowledged girlfriend of a guy. She is the one that everyone knows to be his babe, the one he takes to family functions and to office get togethers and many other formal or informal places that requires a plus one.

A side chick on the other hand, is just between the guy and the lady in question. It's usually a secret replationship between the two parties and maybe a few friends if the guy and the girl as well. This relationship sometimes could be kept for the purpose of unwinding from stress and getting away for awhile before resuming daily activities.

With the above definitions, we can clearly see that the main chick is more esteemed and appreciated by any guy because she gets to meet all the important people in a guys life, ranging from family to his boss and maybe his pastor. Bottom line is he introduces the main chick to the people that matter as who she is; his girlfriend or fiance as the case may be.

The side chick only gets to be introduced to probably the bartender, waitress or the bouncer at a club. Even if she gets an audience with family and the other well important people, she is never introduced as who she is. She is either called a friend, colleague or a business partner.

Here comes the valid question...

Which are you?

It may be a term used to address females only but it dosen't really mean that the guys are left out of it. So guys pay attention!

Sadly, I've seen scenarios where a main chick thought she was main but ended up being the side chick in the end. What a tragedy.

A lot of things have baffled me lately but I think I was more than baffled when I heard someone say that they'd rather be a side than a main chick. I was dumbfounded! Who would want to just play second fiddle all their life? Only sick people was the rational I attained In the end.

Her reasons were that commiting to a relationship was too much drama and hardwork and that she would rather be a side chick because the drama dosen't come to your desk as a side chick. Instead, guys come to you to escape the drama. I just shook my head!

Secondly she said that as a side chick, nobody expects much so you can be you. She said you don't have to clean and cook and other stuffs but that you can fix your long nails and fold your legs all day and nothing will happen. Queens In the making!!

As at this point, I couldn't take it anymore, I had to just walk out..

As much as choices are before us, we should try to make the right choice cos our future depends on it.
