"I was doing a good job in Doncaster which was paying very well but the lady I met kept pressuring me to move in with her so I eventually moved in to her place out of love and that is where my troubles began," he said.
My failed marriage made things worse
Thomas recounted how his ex-wife tried to bully him by treating him with disrespect simply because she knew he was not legally documented.
"Some ladies think that because they have legal documentation and the man may not have it, they try to bully you"
"She could wake me up at midnight to insult me and after that ask me to leave the house immediately or else she will call the police.
Thomas said the marriage lasted less than a year and now he had found another lady who truly loves him.
"The surprising thing was that she didn't want me to leave, so as we speak all my things are at her place, my clothes, and everything have been seized by her,” he said.
Quizzed whether he had regrets about moving to the UK with the mindset of seeking greener pastures, the young man responded in the affirmative.
He said he is filled with regret when he looks back at how he left his life of comfort to venture into the unknown adding that if he had focused on his business he would have how got more money to purchase other cars.
