He left me brokenhearted

Hello Counselor Beezy,

I reach out to seek your counsel and expert advice on a matter of the heart that has been causing me considerable distress and confusion, a narrative filled with twists and emotions.

Several months ago, amidst the hustle and bustle of our workplace, fate led me to a chance encounter at the bustling canteen—a hub where nearly everyone in our vicinity sought solace in hearty meals. It was there that I met a gentleman whose presence immediately captured my attention.

As we exchanged pleasantries and engaged in light-hearted conversation, there was an unspoken chemistry, a palpable connection that drew us closer. Within moments, our discussion transcended the boundaries of casual acquaintance, and we found ourselves sharing our backgrounds, ambitions, and dreams that colored our lives.

Time seemed to fly as we continued our conversation over sumptuous meals—Banku and Tilapia for me, and Fufu with goat meat and light soup for him. We exchanged contact details and began communicating, each conversation cementing the budding friendship.

Our interactions soon blossomed into delightful outings, where we explored the city together, discovering hidden gems and creating memories. One particularly memorable adventure was a spontaneous road trip to a nearby town, where we laughed over silly jokes, marveled at the scenic beauty, and shared personal stories that strengthened our bond.

Another cherished memory was a serene evening spent at a quaint café, sipping hot cocoa, lost in profound conversations about life, love, and our hopes for the future. These moments forged a connection that went beyond mere words; we understood each other in a way that words alone couldn't convey.

However, as our friendship grew deeper, so did his romantic feelings for me. He expressed his affection, proposing a deeper connection, but I hesitated, believing it was crucial to get to know each other better before rushing into a relationship. I chose to tread cautiously, suggesting we maintain our friendship as we explored the potential of love.

Despite my intentions, he misunderstood my reluctance as a lack of feelings for him, prompting him to seek affection elsewhere, resulting in his new relationship with my coworker.

Counselor Beezy, I find myself at a crossroads, grappling with feelings of regret and the haunting question of whether my decision to delay played a part in this outcome. My emotions for him remain strong, and the sight of him with someone else only amplifies my turmoil.

I write to you seeking your sagacious counsel and insights on how to navigate this intricate situation. Is there a way to reignite the spark we once had, or should I come to terms with this unexpected turn and endeavor to move forward?

Thank you

Forgiving your partner

  How to forgive your partner for their infidelity Introduction If you're in a relationship with someone who has cheated on you, there are many ways to forgive them. You can do it privately or publicly, but the most important thing is that you talk about it. It's also important to remember that forgiveness takes time and effort on both sides of the equation. This doesn't happen overnight! However, once both partners have made amends for their actions (and recognized them as such), then forgiveness becomes easier because there aren't any lingering resentments or underlying bad feelings between them anymore. Only love between two people who took action towards healing themselves after a betrayal occurred.  Stop justifying their behaviour. To forgive your partner, you must stop justifying their behaviour. This means that you need to stop making excuses for them and blaming yourself or your relationship for their actions. Here are some examples of what not to do: Don't ...

Alchemy of Life: Transforming Negativity into Positive Energy

"He who has the power to turn all negative vibes in his path into positive energy has learned the meaning of life." The statement's wisdom highlights the significant shift when someone can change negative energy into a good force. Let's investigate this viewpoint and see how it fits in with the theories of scholars who have studied the nuances of personal empowerment and the meaning of life. Turning Negativity into Positivity "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." - Viktor Frankl. Transforming negativity is in line with the existential philosophy of Viktor Frankl. His focus on overcoming obstacles and deriving purpose from misfortune aligns with the notion that, in the face of negativity, one may modify one's inner reaction and transform one's life's course.

After having three children with me out of wedlock, He is getting married to another woman.

Dear Counselor Beezy, I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to you with a heavy heart, seeking your guidance and support to help me navigate a deeply painful and confusing chapter in my life. My story begins with a romantic relationship that I entered into with a businessman. We met through his friend, who happened to be engaged to my madam, a seamstress I was apprenticing with at the time. We all came from the same district in the Upper West Region of Ghana, which initially created a sense of familiarity and connection. Our relationship developed swiftly, and within two months, I found myself pregnant. He agreed to take responsibility for our child, and I moved in with him despite his uncompleted three-bedroom apartment. We managed together until I went into labour. We had discussed the idea of formally approaching my family for marriage, and he had agreed that we would have our traditional wedding during our child's naming ceremony. However, when the time came, th...
