A young lady with the Twitter handle @wavyemma has caused a massive stir online after flaunting her white boyfriend in amazing photos.
In a post on Monday, February 15, the lady said that it is really a good thing when one is in love with a person who knows one's worth.
The woman went ahead to say that with her lover, every day is Valentine's Day. In one of the photos the lady shared, the man could be seen with cardboard asking the woman to be his date on Sunday, February 14.
In the third frame, the lady stood on petals of roses as she struck a confident pose in a red gown. A card presented to her listed all the things the man promised to do if she agrees to his date.

"I’m just curious....is everyone missing the fact that he literally offered to make her everything she wasn’t for vday? Now there’s nothing wrong with cosmetic surgery if that’s how you feel. But for it to be suggested is different. The person you love tells you to be different??"

"Does he have a brother or something because Wow."
@LittleMzMercy asked:
"We’ve been waiting and you didn’t let us down. Does he have brothers?"
@umfn_ said:
"I finally understand the argument of not wanting to post everything on social media. this couple has been going solid for years and now you got STRANGERS in the comments nitpicking everything about the photo, bringing race into it, saying what they should’ve done better, like WHAT?"
