Media personality Toke Makinwa addresses her female audience, highlighting the importance of privacy in female friendships.
On her Instagram page, Toke Makinwa stressed that women should prioritize protecting their friends’ confidentiality, even from their romantic partners.
She highlighted the common mistake of sharing friends’ personal struggles with their significant others, which can potentially harm the friendship.
She encouraged women to recognize that their partners are not their friends’ confidants and that sensitive information should remain private.
In her words:
“I’ve got something very important to say but ladies, I’m going to eat you guys up on this video because it’s very important, so follow me as I go. My best friend contract is with you and I, not you plus your significant other. It breaks my heart to see many female friendships hit the rocks because of this mistake that a lot of us women make.”
“I understand that he’s your guy and you guys are best friends and he has to know everything that is going on but if you love your friends and you cherish your friendship, I believe protecting them should come second to none, including that man”.
“If your best friend confides in you about something that she’s going through or something that is happening in her life, maybe about guys, your husband or boyfriend should not be privy to that information. Why? Because he’s not her best friend.”
“Sometimes you wonder why your man would have an issue when you tell him you’re going to hang out with a friend; it’s the things you tell him! The same way you protect your man and don’t air his dirty laundry to me is the same way you shouldn’t do me.”
