“And even now I have to be cautious. Right now, I will focus on how to make my life better. Sothe relationship is even the least,” she added.
The 22-year-old, who is a Criminology graduate from Salem University, mentioned that she wasn’t aware of her virginity becoming a topic on social media and that she prefers to concentrate on self-improvement rather than pursuing a romantic relationship at the moment.
