Masturbating has been my biggest challenge

Hi Counselor,   I am writing to seek your guidance and assistance with a personal issue that has been affecting my life for the past five years. I have been struggling with a compulsive habit of masturbation. This habit has taken a significant toll on my life, as I find myself masturbating at least once a day, sometimes even more frequently. Despite numerous attempts to quit, I have been unsuccessful in staying away from it for an extended period. Even after engaging in sexual activities with my girlfriend, I still feel the urge to masturbate, which has strained our relationship. This habit began when I started watching pornographic movies and reading erotic magazines. Although I have since stopped consuming such materials, I continue to have vivid sexual fantasies about beautiful women, even those who are not involved in explicit content. These fantasies lead me to masturbate, and I find myself unable to control the urge. I have sought help from various sources, including pas...

I'm torn between two lovely guys.

Hello  Counselor, I find myself in a deeply troubling and confusing situation in my romantic life, and I am in desperate need of your guidance and advice. For the past three years, I have been in what I can only describe as one of the most successful and cherished relationships. My boyfriend and I share a beautiful bond that has garnered envy from those around us. He is an exceptionally honest and faithful partner who treats me like a queen. Both of our families have met, and we are actively preparing for marriage. However, I have made a grave mistake that threatens to jeopardize this wonderful relationship. A co-worker of my best friend expressed interest in me, and my friend, after persistent requests from this individual, shared my contact details with him. Initially, I declined the offer but eventually gave in to my friend's persuasion, thinking there was no harm in providing my number since I could handle the situation responsibly. To my surprise, the gentleman and I began com...

she demands that I return everything she has ever given me

Dear Counselor, I have been in a relationship with my girlfriend for a year and a half, and I have deep feelings for her. Besides the love I have for her, she is financially stable and has supported me in various ways, especially since I have been job hunting after completing my first degree in DBA. However, there is an aspect of her behavior that has been causing me significant distress. Whenever we have a misunderstanding or argument, she demands that I return everything she has ever given me, including gifts and money she willingly provided. This pattern of behavior is deeply confusing and frustrating to me. It feels as if she uses her generosity against me when we have disagreements, and this drives a wedge between us. I have tried to address this issue with her, and I even decided not to accept any further gifts from her to avoid this situation. However, even the slightest provocation leads to her demanding the return of everything she has given me. This behavior leaves me questio...

In this article, we will explore the profound wisdom behind the idea that understanding and love can be drawn from any circumstance. 1.

My huaband have moved from being a lover boy to a narcissist

Hi Counselor, I am facing a challenging situation in my marriage, and I am seeking your guidance and support to help me navigate through it. I got married at the age of 18, immediately after completing my senior high school education. Initially, I had reservations about marrying at such a young age, but as a Muslim and the only child of my parents, I felt compelled to honor their wishes. My mother had experienced a series of miscarriages and wanted to see her grandchildren before she passed away, and she feared that I might face the same difficulties with conceiving. I married a man in his early 30s, and I had never been in a serious relationship before our marriage. In the beginning, our marriage was beautiful, and my husband was incredibly sweet, making me fall deeply in love with him. However, over time, things began to change. About a year into our marriage, my husband started displaying controlling behavior. He became a dictator in our home, making decisions for me without my inpu...

Should I curse or Juju her?

Hi Counselor, My story began when I was posted as a fresh teacher in a village in the Bono East District. I met a brilliant but needy student who, due to financial constraints, had struggled with consistency in her education. At the age of 16, she approached me as her class teacher one day, expressing her intention to leave school because her parents couldn't afford the BECE registration fee. I couldn't bear to see such a young and eager learner give up her education, so I decided to pay for her registration, enabling her to graduate from basic school with an exceptional aggregate of 8. As she continued her education, I supported her financially through high school, and our bond grew stronger, eventually leading to a romantic relationship. Her parents endorsed our relationship because they recognized the pivotal role I played in her educational success. Fast forward to her admission to the University of Energy, I continued to provide financial support for her tuition and living...

I'm losing the love of my life to my childhood friend.

Hi Counselor, I trust this message reaches you in good health. I am contacting you because I currently face a profoundly difficult and emotionally turbulent situation, and I am in search of your counsel and insight. My story begins back in 2015 when I entered the University of Energy in Sunyani. There, I met a guy who became my coursemate and, from the very first day, captured my heart. I fell in love with him, but I was hesitant to express my feelings openly, so I opted to befriend him in the hope that our friendship would naturally evolve into a romantic relationship. We became inseparable, studying together, sharing meals, and even attending parties side by side. We were so close that it seemed like we were already in a relationship, even though he never saw me as more than a friend. In my deep affection for him, I went to great lengths to keep other potential suitors at bay, believing that someday he would recognize my feelings. I confided in one of my closest friends about my love...
