The most difficult time to be in a relationship as a guy is in your early twenties, the period when you are stuck in a limbo, trying to figure out yourself and who you want to be.
At this age, you find it a herculean task asking money from your parents, considering your dad will always remind you of how he was self sufficient at your age.
So you are always left with anything that comes from them willingly, and to compound your "woes", You have a girlfriend whom you love so much, you are 24 and she is 23.
And guys being wired to want to take control, you are frustrated at your inability to take care of her like you want to.
I mean where is the money??
You are still jobless, still hustling, still finding your feet, Still putting hands into many things hoping God smiles on you.
All of a sudden, she starts acting out and showing attitude. You call, and she takes forever to pick or return your calls. When she finally does pick, the call is like an interview session with those annoying and frustrating one word replies. Yes, no, fine, okay, nothing.
Then finally she ends the call with a flimsy excuse like "wait let me close the fridge", i will call you back. And the call never comes back.
Then one day she calls you and asked you "where is this relationship heading to? You don't even know where your own life is heading to, not to talk of a relationship.
Then she drops the bombshell. Tells you that she met a guy who wants to marry her, and how age isn't on her side. And you are almost compelled to scream "But you are just 23, Can't you wait 3 more years let me become successful".
You just hold yourself and play the good guy, you ask her if she loves him, she dodges the question and replies you with " He treats me well".
Well since she wasn't informing you to take permission, she was simply telling you, and you have to be the cool guy and wish her well.
One week later, she gives you the traditional wedding card. And then you do the math yourself, then you realize she was talking to the guy a long time before now.
Then you realize that for every "K" you got on WhatsApp, the guy was getting a long epistle. You have been played!
Worse is you cant even blame her, you are just a prospect who no one knows what will become of your life in 4 years time. Would you have made it or not?
She has gone for the real deal, someone who has already made it.
I mean you were sending her cards of N200, and the guy was telling her to manage 10k for the weekend, No comparison there.
And then you go through that silent heartbreak guys go through, the ones they don't talk about, and unceremoniously you get inducted into the special hall of fame where members are young guys whose childhood loves and friends or girlfriends they thought they would end up with left them to marry someone else
Your heart is broken into smithereens, in this hall of fame, you are all victims, victims of not having found your path in your early twenties.
At the wedding, no sight is more heartbreaking than seeing "the love of your life" say "I do" to this guy she just met 6 months ago, to make matters worse, you get an alert from Diamond bank telling you how N13 have been deducted for bank charges. You are mad. Your N4000, is down to N3987 rendering that N1k useless, you can only withdraw N3k now, and that's your home and abroad. Can life be more unfair at this moment?
6 years later
You are 30 now. Congratulations, you finally made it, you are as rich as you hoped you will become.
You are one of the happening guys in town, you go to a wedding with your friends, the men on suit. Those guys that just intimidate everyone in the hall.
You are seated scouting the hall, and the bridal train passes by. Of course, bridal train and ashoebi ladies always show themselves, that's part of the job description.
Sampling, and you spot one, she is beautiful, elegant and tall. You walk up to her, chat her up, exchange numbers and you leave.
She is 24, ripe for marriage. Three months later, you are sounding marriage to her ears, she loves how it sounds, you are on chat with her always.
And somewhere else, a 25year old boy still finding his way is wondering why the girlfriend is becoming distant these days.
Why is he getting those one worded replies which is unlike her. Why do there chats seem more like interview.
And so fast, you have proposed and simultaneously she is asking the 25year old boy that question of "Where is this relationship going to".
And then you marry her, and somewhere a boy gets heart broken.

BE THAT YOU, THAT CELEBRATES THE GOOD IN OTHERS... By E PLUS The Storyteller
~1.8 mins read
So, it's one of those days where I am going through various articles, as I brainstorm alongside, then my attention something very profound on the media page- A C.E.O celebrating a staff in her conglomerate!
Hmm, while this is not usually the norm, this is also very commendable, especially in times where this gesture is seen as a 'Luxury'
Then I ask:
If as a leader you have your goals and objectives laid down for your staff to follow, and you expect their undivided loyalty as they handle their jobs and position with utmost sense of commitment and dedication, is it too much to ask that these same people be commended once in a while? Does that stop the work from progressing?
How do you see those that work with you?
Are they your 'auto-run' robots?
Are these employees or followers, your ATM machines?
Are they just means to end?
What about seeing them as humans with dreams, ambitions, and set values, also see them as people who have prospects and opportunities in the future. How do you motivate those you lead- Mind you, it's not only about money.
Encourage those you lead with words of commendation, as this would constantly serve as a reminder that you appreciate and value them, even at their low moments.
These words build their confidence, and for those who do not have the confidence, they begin to develop one.
Invest in their prospects as this would advance their course, becoming even more invaluable- get rid of the *SIT-TIGHT-TISM* Leadership syndrome.
There is absolutely nothing wrong in having a one-on-one chat with your staff, or those you lead occasionally- this helps to eliminate any 'air'.
Adapt a reward system (nothing is insignificant), it's all about the heart of appreciation behind the gesture.
Do not hesitate to find out more about their fears, limitations and concerns- this is an indication that you mean well.
As you become more involved in the walfare of those you lead- trust me, God will raise an altar of everlasting and divine protection over you and your entire Household.
Be that leader that sees and celebrate the good in others.
