Is my girlfriend real?
Dear Obaa Yaa
I am 30 years of age, dating a girl of 26 years for two years now. She is a banker and I am a pharmacist.
Our relationship used to be a long distance one because of the nature of our jobs till I came back home to settle.
I went through her phone the first time to see how she was managing her life while I was away. Surprisingly, I didn’t see a single chat history on her phone with any other friend except me.
I checked for the second time and the third time and saw nothing of that sort.
Is it normal for a girl not to chat with anybody except her boyfriend?

Dear James,
From my perspective, your girlfriend should be s a commended for her faithfulness to you.
I would strongly advise you to cherish your relationship with her.
Instead of harbouring doubts about this, you should rather praise her because it is not easy to find genuine good and kind-hearted person like her. They are very rare species.
Holding on to a relationship with such a ‘good girl’ is an opportunity to rather appreciate rather than having thoughts you can hardly find evidence to substantiate.
Dear Obaa Yaa,
I am 35year –old-lady married to a banker. I am a housewife. I am fair in complexion. I got my left hand tattooed sometime last year. I have never had my peace with my husband because he strongly abhors.
In my attempt to get it erased, I have caused a big scar on my hand which has worsened the situation. Sometime ago, your esteemed paper carried a story about how permanent tattoo can be cleared and a location.
May I know whether it is possible to get the scar and tattoo erased, and how much it would cost.
Worried housewife, Prampram.
Dear housewife,
Since I have no idea how wide and deep the scar and tattoo are, it would be difficult for me to have a meaningful discussion with the specialists at the unit.
I suggest that the next time you visit Accra, you pay a visit to any skincare unit and ask what help they can offer.
But until then, do not apply any self-medication. You may also ask your doctor to advise you as if there is any way out for a surgery. All the best.
Dear Obaa Yaa,
Ever since we got married, two years ago, my husband seldom wears his wedding ring except on occasion such as church service, funerals, outdooring and other social gatherings.
For the rest of the week, he goes to work without it. The excuse he gives is that whether he wears the ring to work or not, he is by law married to me.
But I beg to differ. I suspect there is more to it than what he told me. I need your advice on this.

Dear Eno,
Some men don’t like wearing rings; others enjoy it. It is just like how some women like wearing jewellery or large earing while others would rather do away with them.
The fact, however, is that a man can misbehave even when he wears it or not because there are ladies who wouldn’t mind with the ring on.
When he gets back home, he would wear it again. What difference does it make if he doesn’t wear it all?
