My friend dates my ex
Lovelines
My closest friend is dating my ex lover. What do you think about this, can she still be my friend?
Lolly

Yes, she can. There is nothing bad in this. She can still be your friend if  both of you are not taking each other as a rival. Since you were through with the guy before she hitched up with him, you do not need to be irritated about this. Good luck!

Body odour
Lovelines
I am a young girl of 20. I am beautiful with a good figure but my main problem is that I have body odour. This irritates me more especially when I am with my boyfriend. I think I have become socially unacceptable.
Jonsaba

Body odour poses a serious problem not only for girls but guys as well. It can actually alienate one from the social circle but it is not totally without solution. There are lot of ways to get rid of body odour. It will not cost you a fortune but just time and determination. So it is something that you can manage.

The first step is for you to recognize and understand that you have this problem, which you have done. Then you must ensure that you take your bath, first thing in the morning, whether you are going out or not. You must take your bath last thing before you go to bed. If you are a working class person, always keep a hand towel in your bag. Every 1 hour enter the ‘ladies’ (toilet), dampen the towel and use it to clean your neck, armpit and if possible your chest.

The third step is to change clothes regularly too especially when you are at home. Don’t ever wear one cloth more than once. Learn to keep your dirty clothes separate from the clean ones. Shave regularly. Remember that personal hygiene helps a lot. It is essential for you to use deodorants regularly. As time goes on you will notice that it is going down. Good luck!

She ends it with me
Lovelines
I have a slight problem with my girlfriend; unfortunately she did not take it lightly. She ended the relationship and betrayed me. I still believe that she love me as I do but I don’t know how to convince her back.
Lemmy

Love is like a customer to a businessman or woman. As a businessman if you do not take care of your customer another person will do. Likewise if you don’t take care of your partner another person is at the corner to do better than you. So what you think to be a ‘slight problem’ might not be to her as you say. So take heart it is a pity that you could not protect what you have. However, you can visit her, pet her and seek for her forgiveness in a sober mood. Good luck!

Did he love me?
Lovelines
There is a guy I love so much but I don’t know whether he did love me too.
Zarratou

Well, I can’t say myself if he loves you or not because you did not explain anything in your text. So try to make your text a bit detail for a comprehensive suggestion. However, you can call Lovelines for more information. Good luck!

Should money be an issue?
Lovelines
My problem is that I have never enjoyed a long relationship with any woman because I am not rich. Should money be an issue in relationship and how can I have true love?
Paul

Wealth should not be an issue in relationships. However, it naturally serves as lubricant and helps you get thing done. Basically, love still remains the major factor in any relationship. I know one day you will surely get someone that will love your for whom you are. Hence the poorest man still has his sweetheart. For every man, God has created a woman for. So, I am sure that your woman is out there waiting for you. Good luck!

I don’t want a repeat mistake
Lovelines
I am an orphan mother of one but my love life problem is big. Any men I fall in love with will one way or the other break my heart I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to play around. The first man in my life forced me to bed and stole my pride that resulted to pregnancy, which never is my intention.

My families were not happy with me over this. The man never cares for me he even left me with the pain and scar. My baby girl is 2 years now. I want to have a good husband who will love me for who I am and care for me with my child.
Sohna

Some men are out there wishes to meet a lady like you. What you need to do is to take your time. Slow and steady  wins  the race. Some men are callous (husband). But a predestine husband of yours will surely come your way. Just be hardworking, take care of your little angel your husband is on the way coming. Give a call for more discussion as promise, no problem without solution. Good luck!

She follows a wealthy man
Lovelines
I have been dating a girl for about a year. Suddenly she changed and began to behave hilariously. She stopped calling me even to embrace me when we meet. Lately I discovered that she is seeing another man. Obviously, her new catch is richer than me. What do I do now?
James

I know that naturally you would feel bad that someone you have dated for about one year has left you. Believe me life must go on. She has obviously made her choice. It is quite sure that her preference lays wealthy guys. I would suggest that you don’t grieve over this. I know you’d miss her but you must move on.

Remember that for every man, there is a woman. So, definitely, you have a woman out there. Go out and browse for another girl who will give you her heart. It is no use crying over spilled milk. Good luck!

I met her six months ago
Lovelines
I am 39 I met a girl just six months ago and I proposed to her. To my greatest surprise, she has suddenly changed. She began to distance herself from me she avoids my calls and wouldn’t call me.

On inquiry, she sent words through some friends to me, saying that she is uncomfortable with my early proposal and that I am rushing her into marriage that she is not prepare for. And also she doesn’t want to be married today and divorce tomorrow. Should I quit this relationship?
Jawara

You caused her changes of feeling towards you. This is because I think you proposed too fast. Six months is not enough time for you to study and know a girl well to propose a marriage. Even if some relatives or friends you know so well recommended her to you it does not translate to the fact that she is good. Honestly, I think you were in a hurry.

Perhaps, you did that because of your age. Again, I ask, should one marry just what is Miss or Mr Vacant because age is not on his or her side? The fact remains that those who do this often end up in a mess most often. Although, proposal is half way to marriage but it can be broken in a case of absolute hopelessness. I don’t blame her for backing out having thought that you seem to be in a hurry.

However she should have courteously cautioned you about your speed and pace when you proposed. And she should not have accepted the proposal giving her uncomfortable disposition to your speed. You don’t necessarily have to quit. You should slow down your pace and invite her so that you can talk things over and continue with your courtship from where you stopped and watch the trend of things.

Learn to let love grow between the two of you. There is no need to be in such haste. Remember that what is your own will always be. Take things easy and you’d smile home together as one. Good luck!

Advise me
Lovelines
I am a staunch Christian as well as my parents but I am dating a Muslim guy. My parents don’t know about this. I know that if they find out, they wont approve of him. What do you advise me to do?
Ruby-girl

Love conquers all. But one must also obey her parents so that her days will be long, just like the Holy Books commands us. There is no human law or from these two Holy Books that says people of different religious backgrounds should not marry to each other. There have been records of marriages between people of different faith that have succeeded.

We have seen Muslims getting married to Christians. In any case, tell them about the guy, who knows, they might just approve of it. There is nothing (problem) is above Almighty Allah to solve. I believe in Him. So let your parents know about your intention once and for all doing this you will know what next. Good luck!

Appreciation
Lovelines

Nelly

You are always welcome. Good luck!

Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love, the real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense everything that comes from love is a miracle. The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world. I love you and believe in you.
