I MET HIM ONLINE
TGD RELATIONSHIP CORNER
Good day ladies. How are you doing? One of our sisters sent in a request online. Can we please counsel her and hopefully learn a few things? Feel free to tell her the truth but please show some sensitivity; she is hurting.
Hope all is well with you today. I just want to ask for a godly counsel from the group for an issue that has been bothering me. I've been pissed off for the past few days; my ministry has been hindered. It weighs so heavily in my heart.
I met a guy on Facebook and we became good friends. We've been nice to each other. Then he proposed and said he likes me but in a few days he withdrew not to continue the relationship because God was telling him not to pursue his desires for me but to focus on God.
I accepted it that way and our friendship continued. I trusted him as a friend and I have been vulnerable with every detail of my life. We have been open with each other..I even invited him to be an admin on my Facebook page.
I discovered that he was just interested in adding women to his friends' list. I even read his post conversing with women as if flirting. I cautioned him because its my personal page just to respect me but instead he said I got jealous of his women. He misunderstood me.
What makes me mad about him was that he sent a friend request to my ministry partner. He chatted with my lady friend and said bad, negative things about me - that I want him to marry him, that I am jealous of every woman he had. My friend was surprised about his accusations because as my friend and my constant companion, she knows me more than he does since I have never met him.
Because of my heated emotions, I burst out and called him up. That I cannot control..I blocked him on facebook right away.

Can we also take some time to talk about online dating/courtship? Right or wrong? What tips do you have to share?

Good day ladies. How are you doing? This message was sent to Admin some time last year. I believe it is worth discussing in our relationship corner. Here it goes:

Good day ladies. How are you doing? This message was sent to Admin some time last year. I believe it is worth discussing in our relationship corner. Here it goes:
Good morning ma. There is a guy I am dating who I am older than in age and we have been together for years. I find diffcult to submit myself to him. Please what can I do?
I have a few questions arising from this message.
1. Does it matter if the lady is older than the man in a relationship?
2. Should a lady submit to a man she is not married to?
3. If the answer to #2 is 'No', how can a man confirm that a lady he intends to marry will be submissive?

Managing Criticism
TGD CAREER CORNER
Good morning ladies. How are you doing? How is the weekend going? I trust that the day is going well.
Today's career discussion tip is
- Don't take criticism PERSONALLY.
So, what how do we respond if we give the task at hand our all but instead of the effusive thanks we expect, all we get is a criticism?
How do we deal with resentment that wells up?

Help! I Think I Missed It In Marriage
TGD RELATIONSHIP CORNER
Good day ladies. The message you'll read below was actually sent to Admin. I believe it is worth discussing.
Please can you help a sister out here? Is it really possible to miss it in marriage? If yes, what's the way out?
Please share your views and experiences. Scriptural references are very welcome
Good day ladies. The message you'll read below was actually sent to Admin. I believe it is worth discussing.
“Ma, what is your counsel for those of
us that have missed it in marriage? Sometimes I just feel like packing out of
the house but I do not have the courage to. What do I do? It has been hell
living with my husband. We are both Christians but living with him all this
while has causes me so much pain and trouble. I am just tired of everything.
Please, advise.”

Focused on the Right Path
TGD CAREER CORNER
Good morning ladies. How are you doing? How is the weekend going? I trust that the day is going well.
Today's career discussion topic is
- Remain focused once you determine you're on the right path
A few questions come up in my mind as I read this.
1. What is the right path?
2. How does one determine that she's on the right path?
3. What if one realises that she is NOT on the right path?
I think it's easier to be focused once one knows she is on the right path. What do you think? Please share your views and experiences on this.

Does It Really Matter?
TGD RELATIONSHIP CORNER
04/03/2015
Good day ladies. How are you doing? I trust that the day is going well.
Valerie and Femi have been seeing one another casually. Valerie likes Femi just as Femi likes Valerie; they get along pretty well. Femi has asked Valerie if they can start seeing each other exclusively. He has also asked her to marry him.
Everything is okay as far as Valerie is concerned. Femi is her dream man. There is just a minor issue - Valerie and Femi don't attend the same church. In Valerie's church, there is an unofficial rule that does not permit them marry from outside the church. Femi, as a result of the love he has for Valerie, has agreed to 'compromise' (though he hasn't really spelt out what he means by compromise).
Valerie has prayed concerning Femi's proposal and generally has peace but she is concerned about the issue of the church to attend. Should Valerie agree to Femi's proposal or not?
