Three Years Later — The Long-Awaited Reply
According to the post, the man had originally sent her a message saying “Hi dear” on January 30, 2022. The lady apparently ignored the message for years until curiosity got the better of her.
When she finally responded with a short “Hi,” she likely didn’t expect what came next.
Barely three hours later, the man fired back with a witty — and now viral — reply:
“3 years reply… Me wey don marry 😂😂.”
Social Media Reactions
The post immediately went viral, amassing thousands of reactions as users shared their amusement at the man’s quick wit.
One user wrote:
“At least he waited patiently — till marriage! 😂”
Another commented:
“This is why you should reply DMs on time. You might be texting a married man now.”
Some joked that the man’s marriage update was his “official closure message,” while others praised his humor, calling it “the calmest revenge ever.”
Online Trend of Delayed Replies
The clip has reignited online discussions about delayed DM replies and how people sometimes revisit old messages out of boredom or curiosity — often with hilarious or awkward results.
Many users have since joined the trend, posting screenshots of their own long-overdue message replies with the hashtag #3YearsLaterDM.
Love, Timing, and a Little Laughter
While the story may have started with an ignored message, it ended in laughter and lighthearted lessons about timing — and how much can change in just three years.
