She said:

"With relationships, I think with this one, it felt different. If I tell you that this man showed me love in a way that I have never experienced it. It's just the little things, right? It’s somebody who just wants to be in your space, who’s not always looking for a way out or when you are going? Is somebody that you don’t even wonder if I can call now, or if you call, then don’t pick up your call.

"Then, don’t return your call, or you have to wait for a phone call because you don’t want to seem like you’re too overbearing, right? I’m a Libra, I’m a lover, and I love, love. I love being loved, and he brought something into my space that I’ve always longed for. That I’ve never experienced it, even from my parents, that I was just like, oh my gosh, this is the kind of love I want."

Ndlovu further mentioned how their love was too good to be true for her, and that Masebe had flaws which turned out to be character flaws and had to make a decision of whether to stay in that relationship and bear with his flaws or walk out, as it could become a problem for her.

"He allowed me to be myself. Did it feel good to be true, yes, but I was like, maybe God loves me. Everybody has flaws, right? When those flaws become a character flaw, this has nothing to do with me, and it’s not a mistake. It’s something this person has had all his life.

"And if I think there’s anything I can do to change that now, especially if they’re not seeing that flow because it happens organically. It’s who they are, right? And you’re like, uh, am I okay to live with this uncertainty for the rest of my life, or is it going to be a problem? I had to make that decision. Did I love him at that time when I made that decision? Yes, I did," she further said.
