How will the end be?
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I Started dating this guy since I completied SHS and everything has been sailing smoothly but I am of the view that he might jilt me along the way due to my past experience.
I must confess, my guy is as gentle as a lamb but I have trust issues with him since he does not openly tell me everything he is going through.
Until recently, he has started putting up weird behaviour which I am uncomfortable with but I have decided to swim against the tide because it seems he is not taking me serious anymore. He does not pick my calls, besides he shouts at me. I currently have my heart in my mouth because I can foresee danger ahead but I do not want to be a victim.

Dear Ama,
Every relationship has its ups and downs. Trust issues should be handled with tact. I advise that when you get in touch with him politely ask if he wants to remain in the relationship with you. I believe he will tell you about his problems and seek help. In the meantime if you still get the same treatment from him be focused, forge ahead in life and pursue your dream. Build your life and any good man would cherish you once you are positive and progressive.

What subjects should I choose?
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I took part in General Certificate Examination, Ordinary Level (‘O’ level ), and passed in five subjects including English language 6, Modern Mathematics 5, Commerce 3, Business Management 5, and Accounting 6.
With Economics, I had 8. Due to economic constraints it would be impossible for me to attempt the economics again.
What I need from you is an advice as to which subjects I should take at the Advance level so as to go to the University.
I would also like to know the type of career I should take at the University.
A.J, Accra.

Dear A.J
If you want to go to the Sixth form, then you would have to avoid all the subjects except the Commerce and Business Management. But since you are talking of financial constraints, you will have to look for a job and later register for part-time studies in order to take the exams.
That will not be easy but with determination, you can do it.
The career you choose finally should depend on what subjects you do best.

I’m having second thoughts
Dear Obaa Yaa,
My man and I are planning a wedding which will take place within the next few months. It will be preceded by an engagement.
But I am beginning to have second thoughts because I suspect that my man was hiding some negative things about his character.
For instance, I visited him at his office unexpectedly, and he was exchanging profanities with another worker.
At another time, he was chasing a female worker around the office and everyone was laughing. But he is a very polite man when we are alone.
Which one do you think is his true character?
It is very important for me because I don’t want to marry a joker.
A.B, Sewhi

Dear A.B
I don’t think you love this man at all, otherwise you will not be having second thoughts about his other side.
If you are for him, tell him how you felt on the occasions that you went to his office. Don’t make an issue out of it; let him know how much it affected you.
If he cares for you, he will do something about it.
But it might interest you to know that the behaviour of people differs when at home and at work places
