Dear Obaa Yaa,

We attended the same church and were very close and this closeness led to an intimate relationship between us.

Relations, friends and acquaintances knew about our friendship and some of them even referred to us as husband and wife.

Unfortunately, two years on, things changed suddenly and attempts made to repair the broken relationship had fallen on rocks.

My lover has failed to respond to my calls and would not make attempts to call me either. Though some friends who were eager to see us together as a couple tried their best, they could not succeed.

 Finally, my friend got married to an influential rich man who promised to do everything for her, but the man died two years after their marriage leaving a child between them.

 Five years after the death of her husband she has been pleading that she had made a bad decision and that l should re- reconsider her since l was not married.

According to her, she wished she were my wife because of my character and humility.

Advise me on the step to take.

Kwame, Kumasi.

Dear Kwame,

Your former girlfriend has taken a wrong decision by stepping you aside for a wealthy person. It was unfortunate that she did not consider the love that had existed between you and went ahead to make you suffer disappointment.

Having abandoned you for another person suggests that she has made you a second-rated lover and cannot be trusted.

Would she have been giving you considerations if the ex-husband were alive with all the pleasure and splendour surrounding her?

From all indications, she is the type who is susceptible to sweet promises and pleasure.

You should not hesitate in telling her that you are no longer interested in her. On the contrary, you are at liberty to make your own decision in this matter.
