He took me for granted
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am a 22-year old University student. I dated a 35-year-old man who took advantage of my innocence and has suddenly become too busy with me.
I got fed up with him ignoring me so I stopped checking up on him like I used to. Eventually, I asked for a break up but he took my words for a joke but I have since moved on to start a new relationship.
I found out after we broke up that he had a 10-year old son. He is now apologising and wants me back. I love my current boyfriend and wouldn’t want to hurt him. What should I do?
Tasha, Madina.
Dear Tasha,
It appears you are quick to start a new relationship hence your decision to end the relationship with your former boyfriend. Better still, you don’t have to bother yourself too much over your ex-boyfriend.
He was not truthful to you and you deserve better. He may hurt you again if you return to him. Focus on improving your current relationship and don’t repeat the mistakes you made in the past.

Pastors take too much money from members
Dear Obaa Yaa,
A FRIEND invited me to his church a few weeks ago and I was embarrassed at the way the priest demanded money from the congregation.
Will God bless such offerings extracted from church goers?

Dear Etornam,
It is true that some churches demand money from their congregation. But it is also a fact that some of these churches uses these funds to build proper places of worship.
Utilities like water and electricity bills plus certain allowances or salaries of full –time workers in the church are also settled with this money.
Indeed if these money is put to proper use, it will enhance God’s work, and contributors would be blessed.
But if the money is misused, the people may think they are deceiving the congregation, but they cannot deceive God.

I can’t make a choice
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am a 40-year old banker and doing so well financially. I have a side business and I own two houses at Adenta. I have two girls in my life and I value each one for who they are. I want to settle down this year but I’m finding it difficult to make a choice.
One is financially stable, hardworking but disrespectful. The other is jobless, obedient and dull.
I love both of them and I am finding it difficult to choose. Should I marry one and keep one as a friend or I should leave them all.
They are all very beautiful. I am confused.
Kwansima,

Dear
I don’t believe that you are serious about marriage. I strongly believe you don’t love both of them, because you will never have a second thought when you love someone.
Also, I don’t believe that the girls are as daft as you want to portray.
For instance, what makes you think they are yours to pick and choose what roles they should play?
You are old enough to know what you want and what will be best for you. In as much as the ladies are pretty, each of them have different qualities you also want.
If I were you, I would propose and find out which of the girls would have you.
