I feel like there's something wrong with me. I don't know what to do.
Hello Bukky.
I'm really bothered and confused right now as I speak. I've been in 3 relationships and each with its own problems.
First he was too controlling and jealous then there were trust issues too. The second was cheating on me even though I broke my rule of no sex with him.
With the third, he made me feel like I was bothering him, I didn't feel loved at all and when I complain he said I was being too clingy and childish.
I feel like there's something wrong with me. I've been building myself up for the right person but I can't seem to find any. I don't know what to do. ____________
Dear reader,
The key is to wait a little more. Good things still come to those who wait.
While I understand how frustrating it must be to want something for so long without getting it, the truth remains that your best bet is to wait for it till it comes.
Given that you have had previous experiences that did not work as planned, I think this should help you stay more patient and more intentional about doing things right this time around.
The way to avoid the previous issues in any new relationship is to watch before leaping. There’s no point rushing into an affair if what you crave is something lasting. Take your time, observe characters and behavioral patterns. Watch out for compatibility and areas of differences. These are noticeable through conversations and observation.
If you stay friends long enough you’ll notice enough to help you decide if a relationship is good for you or not.
And then there’s the place of you reforming yourself and becoming what you hope to attract. Sometimes, the issue is not with the people you are dating but with you. As much as you want to look at people and assess them well before saying yes, I think introspection is very key, too.
Look within. Judge yourself fairly and be true to yourself. If there are things that need changing, don’t hesitate to do so! Because if you don’t like something about yourself, chances are that no one will, too!
Overall, please give yourself time to see these things well before jumping to a conclusion. _____________ Do you want to talk about your love life, marriage or family issues?
Do you have burning questions that you would love to get answers to?

For Women: How to know you're moving too fast with a new guy
Don't get too carried away with the exciting early days of meeting a new guy.
When you meet that wonderful new guy, there is a tendency to eagerly and speedily go through with it.
That over-excitement is forgivable, really, as it happens to even the best of us.
But at some point you need to draw the line and exercise caution instead of just going with the strong, dangerous tide.
So where do you draw the line? The three tips below explain how to know that a guy you just met is moving too fast.
1. Are you even friends yet?
It is often said that the best relationships begin with friendship. So before you ride too far on those whirlwind emotions, you need to slow down and ask yourself if you are even friends with this person yet.
When that rush of excitement peters out, and really, it will at some point, what will you have left?
If you haven’t built a great level of friendship yet, you need to stall, take a step back and build a sturdy foundation of friendship before taking it to the next level.

2. Do you trust him yet?
Trust does not come as a result of great sex or few interesting dates and great midnight conversations.
You need time to build trust so give yourself time. You need enough time to judge a guy’s character and trustworthiness.
Don’t get too carried away and neglect to pay attention to this.
3. Your guts
If something about the whole affair feels off and you feel some sense of discomfort about the whole thing, you might want to take a chill pill and move a bit slower.
If you ever find yourself in any of these three situations, it does not mean that the guy is a bad guy, or that nothing good can come out of the relationship, you only need to move at a more reasonable pace.
You know when you drive a car at a speed too fast, you’ll likely not see a dangerous ditch before it’s too late.
The same can be said of your relationship. Intentionally reining in the momentum of the relationship could be the difference between avoiding a major heartbreak and getting broken beyond repair.
