Content creator and comedian 2mbili’s girlfriend, Jackie Ogaga, has opened up about how she and her man can go for months without seeing each other.
What Jackie Ogaga loves about dating 2mbili
Speaking during an interview with Radio Maisha, Jackie narrated how her relationship with the 2mbili is and said she prefers the occasional meetups over constant closeness.
“I would say no, we do not have time for each other, he is busy, he is running his errands, and I am also busy on this other side. At times we take even months without seeing each other,” she said.
She explained that 2mbili is frequently on the move, balancing content creation with the demands of securing income, which keeps him travelling and often unavailable.
When asked the longest she has gone without seeing her boyfriend, the trained medic said:
“One month. And we are both in Nairobi. But we talk. He is in Homa Bay county. Yes, it is affecting the relationship, but let people look for money. I am okay. Actually, I would really want a relationship where we stay for a long time without seeing each other,” she added.
Ogaga has in the past received sharp criticism after embarrassing the comedian when he showed up at her workplace to give her a birthday surprise.

How long should couples stay without meeting?
Relationship coach Mary Nzisa, in an exclusive interview with .co.ke, said that couples have different timelines for their meetings.
“There is no set time for people to meet. Some people are in long-distance relationships, and meeting physically is a challenge. Then some live in the same town but do not make efforts to meet. Relationships are built by conversations and connections, so at some point, it is necessary to sit down and consider what works for you both and agree on meeting timelines, to avoid one person checking out of the relationship because their physical connection needs are not being met,” she said.
