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.

I want a sponsor
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am 25 years of age. I am a degree holder and wants to further my education with my Masters.
But unfortunately, I lost my father and I don’t have any one to help me financially to do my masters.
I am seeking for sponsors to help me but I do not know any such sponsor. I am, therefore, appealing to you through this letter for assistance.
Paddy, Ada.
Dear Paddy,
It is quite impossible finding such ‘sponsorships’ at random unless you have family members who want to assist.
Try as much as possible to search for a job because we are in hard times and I wonder what type of sponsorship you are looking for.
You can save after you have been paid. After working for a while, you can take a loan to further your education and arrange for suitable class.
You can start a lucrative business online just as other ladies are selling clothes, shoes, bags etc to earn a living.
Even if someone will assist you, you need to make efforts yourself.

My boss is the problem
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I AM in love with a young man in my office. He is a very kind and gentle man every woman will dream of.
He is 35 and I am 25 years of age. I am currently pursing my Masters at the Accra Technical University in Fashion Design and Textiles.
As a matter of fact, he assists me in my project works, assignment and always ready to help me in times of difficulty.
Interestingly, he has also shown interest in me and we are planning to get married next year.
My problem is that anytime my boss sees him around me, he gets angry and gives him attitude and shouts at him to go to his office.
My fiancée wants to resign because it is making him uncomfortable in the office and this is affecting his attitude towards work.
He is accusing me of having a relationship with the boss. I am disturbed, what should I do?
Baaba,
Takoradi.
Dear Baaba,
It is natural in such a case for your fiancé to suspect your boss might be after you.
Your boss’s attitude to your fiancé is too harsh. He should take it easy with him, especially when he is assisting you with work.
I have a feeling that your boss has an interest in you so seeing your fiancé around you makes him uncomfortable.
However, you can also have a talk with your boss to find out the reason for his behaviour towards your guy.
