I am a young woman aged 22 and my boyfriend is 27. He really loves me but he is someone who is short-tempered, I don’t have a problem with his short temper – but he recently lost it and slapped me. He never apologised and three days later when l was not talking to him, he send me a text message saying “You have decided to ignore my calls just because I slapped you? What is so special about you? You should apologise for disrespecting me in the first place.” Apparently I had asked him what his plans were for mother’s day and suggested he gives me $200 so that I buy something for my mother and his. I know deep down he loves me, but is he the right man? – Selina
Dear Selina
A man who abuses you while simply dating is a man who is definitely not worth your hand in marriage. You are lucky to see this side of him before you commit yourself in marriage with him. My advice little sister is that you leave this man while you still can. You may think he will change but someone who lays a hand on a woman and remains unapologetic about it is not worthy of your love. I have nothing more to say really, except that he is not the right man for you. There is nothing wrong in what you had suggested, actually it is something he should have been proud of you for. He is simply a coward. – Aunty Lisa
