Reader’s Mail: "I Can’t Seem To Keep A Man"
Lately, I have been getting more anxious and worried as it
is obvious that I am not getting any younger; with the worst part being my
inability to keep a relationship with a man for a long time.
I turned 27 yesterday and my anxiety level has reached fever
pitch. With my longest relationship ever not exceeding 5 months, it is a
mystery how things never go my way in terms of keeping a man. It’s either the
man leaves or another girl snatches him from me. It’s like a vicious circle,
nothing ever changes since I started dating at 22. I don’t have a boyfriend as
I write this and I already have a feeling that my next might not stay too. Could
it be as a result of my refusal to allow any man have sex with me due to the
fact that I was raped at age 16? My decision to stay without sex could be a
factor, but could it be that bad?
