Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am 27 years old, the third child of my parents and a graduate. Though l work and have the means to cater for a family of my own, l am afraid of getting married because my two elderly brothers are suffering from broken marriages.

They had smooth marriages from the beginning but could not go beyond four years. This predicament is putting fears in me not to marry.

Some of my colleagues are married and taking good care of their families while l am at a standstill. For this reason l would like to remain single to free myself from the problems others are encountering. l am waiting for your advice to help guide my decision.
Kwame, Tema

Dear Kwame,
Though it is good to study current developments in your family to guide your future decisions, people face different challenges due to various problems. Your brothers and their wives are different people with varied challenges and characteristics, so you cannot put yourself in their shoes.

You are not likely to face the same problems others are facing, therefore, the need to maintain a positive mind that you will succeed and your desire will be fulfilled.

 Things happen for different reasons and the personalities involved play a major part in everything that happens. Be guided by a positive mind that you will succeed in your marriage.
