THE LOVE DOCTOR

                          
Love is one word that has little or no meaning in our time. Guys say it more than they say good morning these days, girls respond even if they don’t mean it.
In the time of our fathers, love had a totally different meaning. A man’s family would select a girl from a decent family and he will pay her bride price and take her home. He didn’t have to buy her a Bold 5 or an Ipad or have numerous sexual encounters with her. She respects him and helps build him up, she trains her children properly in his absence. These women are our mothers and also our heroes.
In our 21st century relationships, a boy meets a girl on twitter and adds her on blackberry messenger, he quickly professes love for her and she wouldn’t want to embarrass him, so she will respond. They meet and begin to have sexual relations. In the guy’s head, she’s just a friend, but in the girl’s head, they are married with 4 kids. This goes on until the guy gets tired of her and moves ahead, she begins to loathe guys because she believes she is a victim. These things happen every day, as a matter of fact, a guy is somewhere ‘setting p’ as it’s popularly called.
Now let’s go back to the concept of love, what is love? Many believe love is a sensation that magically generates when Mr. or Ms. Right appears; no wonder so many people are single. I believe that love is the attachment that results from deeply appreciating another’s goodness, it has been propounded that you do not choose who you fall in love with. This belief is totally fallacious and erroneous; love is active and can be created. How do you think our parents who were married without knowing anything about each other managed to stay together for so long.
Everyone wants to be loved, whether you accept it or not. It is a natural phenomenon. The problem with love these days is the lack of direction, it is important to get to know a person first before entering a relationship with the person. It is also important to know the kind of partner you wish to have, if you’re looking for a wife, it would be foolish to search in a nightclub.
For you to love someone else, you must love yourself first. I have met so many people, who believe they cannot be loved by anybody because they are too short or too tall or too fat or too slim, but the truth is, there is somebody for everybody, you just have to find your type. We all should be grateful that we are alive instead of complaining about our God given bodies.
My advice to guys is to be patient. Don’t jump into bed with every girl, contrary to what they say; it doesn’t make you a boss but a man whore. Not all girls want to eat your money, if you’re patient, you will find a lovely lady.
My advice to ladies, please please please treat yourself with dignity and every guy will respect you. Don’t depend on guys to survive, be independent, get good grades and get a good job and trust me only decent guys will come your way.
Well what are you still doing here? Go and tell your friends to read and share as well. Have a good weekend
