Woman Prays to God for a Sign to Leave Her Boyfriend — Ends up in Hospital Right after the Date

• A woman asked God for a sign to dump her boyfriend once and for all.
• After going out on a date with him, she was rushed to the hospital for a severe allergic reaction.
• The woman turned out to be allergic to her boyfriend. She took it as a sign from God to finally leave him.

Sometimes, people need an added boost of courage to do something they've been wanting to do. Whether it's taking a challenging job offer or moving forward with one's relationship, people look for signs in different places to point them in the right direction.

A woman in a stagnant relationship prayed to God for a sign that it was finally time to move on. Zakiya Ivey was in a month-long relationship with a new boyfriend when she realized she wasn't happy.

She Asked God for a Sign

So, before their next date, she came prepared. She asked God to give her a "non-lethal allergic reaction" the next time she was with him if her boyfriend wasn't the man God had planned for her.

Zakiya's next date was scheduled only two days after praying for a sign. She picked her boyfriend up so they could head to the gym together.

Zakiya didn't think much of her prayer to God. She went about her day and expected it to be another casual date with her boyfriend. The entire time, however, she kept rubbing her eyes. Her friend told her that her eyes were puffing up, and she was in disbelief.

"At that point, my prayer was being answered," she realized, shocked. She went to a local drugstore to buy allergy medicine, but things started taking a turn for the worst.

Zakiya began wheezing and took it upon herself to go to the hospital. She was hooked to an IV and placed under observation.

The hospital couldn't find the reason for Zakiya's sudden allergic reaction and referred her to an allergist. The woman wasn't so concerned with her health then, as she knew she had something to do after being discharged later that day: dump her boyfriend.

Zakiya's Boyfriend Wasn't as Interested

Zakiya and her boyfriend met through a mutual friend. She didn't feel their relationship progressing, as the man would rather stay home than go out on dates. She realized it wasn't proper:

"I had to always ask to go on dates. From the jump, it wasn't right."

Eventually, it took Zakiya a week to break up with him. She had a lingering hope that he could change or that the allergic reaction was a fluke.

However, she called it quits when she realized they weren't on the same page and didn't share the same values. She admitted she seemed more interested in their relationship than he was, so it was best to move on.

When she told her family the story of her hospitalization, they insisted it was her sign from God. They all thought it was crazy, given her prayer was so specific, but God moves in mysterious ways.

Now, Zakiya plans to pray to God before jumping into a relationship. She encouraged fellow women to listen to their intuition and "trust those red flags."

Did the woman do the right thing trusting the signs and her intuition? What would you have done in her shoes?
