Temi Otedola, the wife of Nigerian artist Mr Eazi, has said that when her husband is displeased with her, he keeps malice with her instead of confronting her.
In an episode of their joint podcast, the actress described her husband’s behaviour as “a bit childish.”
She recalled an incident when she found out her husband was angry with her through email.
“The way I found out that Tosin [Mr Eazi] was actually angry with me on a Monday was that he sent me a long message.
“And bear in mind that we are sitting in the same flat. I was minding my business, responding to my mails and I got a message saying everything he was upset about me for.
“While I was reading it, my body was already becoming hot. At some point, I couldn’t even read it because I was so angry.
“Because I have asked him ten times if he was upset with me, and he said nothing.
“Honestly, if you’re in the same flat as someone, do I think it is a bit childish to not go up and speak to them? Yes. But that is what you’re comfortable with.
“You find it easier to express yourself by typing. I have gotten some long *ss emails in the past. At least you’re getting it out. But it would be nice if you could just sit down with me and have it out,” she expressed.
Mr Eazi responded by admitting that typing allows him to express himself more comfortably.
He stated that he was unable to voice his concerns explicitly during previous one-on-one conversations.
He pointed out that he wasn’t able to explicitly express his concerns during past one-on-one dialogues.
“I would prefer to sit down with you and talk things out. But I see that sometimes when we sit down to talk, I don’t hit the nail on the head. Also, I think if I communicate during tense moments, I might sound too harsh.
“I don’t think texting someone you’re sitting next to is the best way to communicate. But that is my way.
“And everybody just needs to find what their way of communication is and communicate. For me, it’s typing.
“When I want to really express myself, I can do it via typing better than speaking it. Because then I can read it again and cross-check my tone,” he said.
