Some secrets women should know about men
In your pursuit of love and romance, you tend to be somewhat selfish. That’s okay. It happens to everyone.
You have grand dreams and visions of what your ideal relationship is going to look like. You would begin to fantasise about what your dream guy is going to be and what kind of personality he has.
However, have you ever just stopped to think about what it would be like for the guy in this scenario? Sure, you know what you want.
But you might not be aware of the types of efforts that men go through to find love for themselves as well. You shouldn’t make the mistake of not taking the time to understand men.
And if you don’t know where to start in that regard, then this article is going to be perfect for you. Here are a few secrets about men that you might have never realised on your own:
They also have to put up with the risk of rejection
A lot of women like to play the role of the victim a lot whenever they are rejected in romance and love. And that’s normal. It’s okay to feel sad about being rejected. However, it would be foolish to think that men don’t have to suffer through rejection, too. Men have to put up with rejection a lot, considering that they’re the ones who tend to make the initial approach in dating and relationships.
They feel a lot of pressure to be kind to women
Men are always held to a high standard. They are continually being told that they need to conduct themselves like gentlemen. And yes, that is, indeed, how it should be. However, you shouldn’t be so unfair to ignore just how difficult it is. Sometimes, a man can get lambasted by society in such a significant manner for something that a woman would be forgiven instantly for.
They can’t get dates that easily
Sure, women always have to wait around for a man to ask them out. This is especially true for women who aren’t very forward or aggressive in their romantic ways. However, that doesn’t mean that men can get dates left and right. When a man gets rejected, it can be tough for him to find the confidence that he needs to stay persistent in asking girls out.
They feel a lot of pressure to do everything on their own
Men are always touted as the supposedly stronger gender. And that might be true in the physical sense due to biological and anatomical factors. However, that isn’t still going to be the case in an emotional touch. Men are always encouraged to swallow their feelings and pretend like nothing is wrong. And this can be very destructive to a person’s state of mind.
They don’t know how to relate to others, as well as women do
Women are just more empathetic. This is in connection with the previous item on this list. Since men are encouraged to be less emotional, then they don’t get a chance to be in tune with the feelings of other people as well. That means that it can be complicated for them to relate to others.
They aren’t aware of what women want
Men have no clue what women want. Sure. You might think that you don’t understand men. But it’s all the same for them as well. Honestly, they don’t understand women either. They are just as clueless as you would be. Naturally, it would be unfair for you to expect any different from them.
They struggle with always having to take control of a relationship
Men tend to be thrust into leadership positions in the relationship. However, not all people are built to be leaders. And it can be awful for a man who doesn’t have leadership qualities to carry those kinds of expectations from a woman.

Madam Sandra Seyram Kpedor, the District Chief Executive (DCE) of Anloga in the Volta Region, has emphasised the importance of parental involvement in children’s education, stating that education is free, but parents need to do more to support their children.
She said parents, teachers, and students must be involved in addressing the challenges facing the district’s education sector, particularly the poor Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) results.
Madam Kpedor outlined some key roles parents should play to promote their children’s education, including providing a conducive learning environment, monitoring their children’s progress, and supporting teachers.
The DCE highlighted some challenges the district faced such as inadequate infrastructure and a shortage of teachers, which have also contributed to the poor BECE results and called on well-to-do parent to help solve the situation through and other supports.
To address the issues, she also announced that plans have been taken to utilise the district’s common fund to implement educational projects, such as constructing school blocks and teachers’ bungalows at Sodzi community, and 2-unit classroom blocks each at Akplorwutorkor and Tegbi-Afedome respectively, among others.
Madam Kpedor also noted that her office had earlier notified the Ministry of Education to deploy more teachers to the area to improve teaching and learning, and encouraged students to work hard and strive for excellence, and work beyond their limit to succeed.
“To my wonderful and beautiful girls, you have to know it clear that women and girls have equal opportunities to compete with men for greater achievements,” she indicated.
The DCE cited her own achievement as a testament to the fact that women can excel in leadership positions, alongside Vice President Nana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, and stressed that girls were no longer limited to domestic roles but can pursue their dreams and become leaders.
Additionally, she mentioned that a meeting was held earlier with assembly members, and other stakeholders to address the district’s educational challenges and improve academic performance.
She promised that the district’s education oversight committee and stakeholders would work together to address the challenges and improve the district’s BECE results and called for parental involvement and support to boost the district’s education sector for children to chase their dreams to become future leaders for the success of the district and the nation.
She urged parents not to leave everything to the government but rather help in the provision of some necessary materials such as textbooks, exercise books, pens, pencils, food, and guidance to children for the successes of young learners. –GNA

The spokesperson for Dr. Bawumia, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has criticised the implementation of the NDC government’s No Fee Stress policy, arguing that the programme has failed to deliver on its core promise.
According to him on Starr fm, the policy, which was introduced to ensure stress free payment of fees for level 100 tertiary students, has rather turned into what he described as post stress support.
He explained that students are required to pay their fees first before applying for reimbursement, a situation he believes defeats the purpose of the policy.
He questioned claims by government officials that the policy has been successful and that citizens are happy.
In his view, such claims do not reflect the lived realities of many Ghanaians. He stressed that while some people may appear satisfied, many others continue to struggle.
Dennis Miracles Aboagye pointed to the situation of trained teachers and nurses who have been picketing for nearly six months, demanding employment.
He noted that government responses suggesting it cannot accommodate all of them contradict claims of economic stability.
He further argued that economic indicators such as a stable currency mean little to people who are unable to secure jobs or access promised support.
He observed that telling an unemployed teacher or a struggling student that the cedi has strengthened does not address their immediate challenges.
On the issue of tertiary education, he maintained that no level 100 student benefited from stress free fees in 2025, despite the policy being announced.
He added that in 2026, students have already reported to school without receiving the promised support.
He insisted that asking students to pay fees first and seek reimbursement later amounts to support after hardship, not stress free education.
According to him, this approach goes against what was promised during the policy announcement.
Dennis Miracles Aboagye questioned why a government that presents the economy as strong is unable to fulfil what he described as simple and clear promises.
He added that there is a fundamental problem with the way the economy is being managed and indicated that he is prepared to explain his position further.
