Hi! I’ve been with my boyfriend for a while now and the same problem keeps on popping up whenever we have an argument. He never admits to being wrong on his part and always finds someone to blame, usually me though. For instance I hardly get my nails done(acrylics) and he’s always going on about how I should get them done because other girls do. He even said I don’t take care of myself because I don’t get my nails done. I was so hurt by that statement, and when I spoke up about it, he didn’t apologize. Rather, he tried to make it seem like it was all my fault. Will I ever get through to him or should I end things for goo?

Eh, he sounds slightly manipulative. He’s trying to change you and make you feel bad about something you care very little for. That’s hurtful and should not be expected, if he refuses to see his faults, you’re going to have to ask yourself whether or not this is something you can carry on investing your time in. Comparing you to other women is a big no, no and a strike.
I’m 26 and seeing this guy from work who is 39. We have been dating for 2 months and he has 2 kids which he only told me about recently. Its slightly put me off but he’s reassured me that I don’t need to be a step mum and that his ex wife is completely out of his life. They only speak when he goes to see his kids. He treats me sooo well and I have already met some of his friends and family. I really like him but I discussed with my Mum and she’s totally against it. I don’t know whether we should still pursue with this relationship because my mum and others don’t approve but I really am falling for him and treats me like a queen. Help!

If you want to continue dating him, date him, but remember it’s only been 2 months.. it’s still very early, so don’t be too infatuated. You’re an adult so you’re allowed to date whoever you want no matter how old they are. Make sure you’re asking him the right questions …such as how long he’s been divorced etc.
Hi oloni, I’m white and my boyfriends black. He’s become socially aware and is now woke. I have no issue with this its just that He’s been tweeting about how we need to protect our black queens and he posts pictures of other women on Twitter, It’s made me feel uncomfortable he also laughs when people mock white peoples lips and although my lips aren’t thin they aren’t thick either and i just feel like he’s taking jabs at my life and wants to end our relationship. I really love him just his socially media persona upsets me. I don’t know what to do, any advice? And Could you make this QOTD

I’ll make this a #QOTD but my personal advice is that you need to talk to him about it. If it offends you, you have to remind him that these things do upset you and it’s understandable. He can become as woke as hell, but he also needs to remember not to be insensitive towards the woman he’s with. Communication is always key!
Hi Oloni, I am with my boyfriend for over a year now. At the start of the relationship he wasn’t upfront about his feelings for me maybe because it wasn’t so strong. This made me worried for a while. But as of late he has been affectionate and open about his feelings. I feel sort of two ways about this. Is he genuine? Why now? Do I enjoy the new found passion for me or do I keep questioning it?

You’re totally over thinking it, sometimes these things take time. We all move at different paces when it comes to opening up, he’s clearly finally let his guard down and feels more comfortable to do so. My advice? Don’t question it, be happy!
I’m a 20 year old aspiring filmmaker at uni and my boyfriend (just over a year) is 25 and has a part time job in retail. He’s been to jail before and he has no ambition besides staying out. He doesn’t want to progress in his job or to look into a better career path, what do I do???

You know deep down what you need to do, if he’s shown you he has no ambition, you’re not going in the same direction so cut him loose.
