I realised I had feelings for Thomas when I was in my final year in high school. We had been friends since I enrolled in the first year of school. Although he was a year ahead of me, we were drawn to each other because of our Christian values.

He showed me everywhere I needed to know on campus. We attended prayer meetings together. When it came to my studies, he was always helpful. He became like a brother to me. I knew I loved him but it was in a sibling kind of way. Our bond grew stronger day by day until he wrote his WASSCE and left campus.
It was when I was in my final year that my true feelings for him became known to me. It wasn’t in the sibling way at all. It was amorous. At first, I hated the feeling. As a Christian, I prayed to God to take it away, but He did not. The more I suppressed it the stronger it grew.
It got to a point where I became overwhelmed. I couldn’t keep it to myself anymore, so I told him. To my surprise, he confessed that he also felt the same way.
“I have loved you from the moment I met you,” he confessed.
We’ve been a couple since that moment. For all these years we’ve been together, we’ve believed we were made for each other. The plan was to become financially stable and then get married.
Both our families know about the relationship. There is no problem over there. Just as my people accepted me, his family welcomed me with open arms.
We don’t live in the same region. The long distance is hard but it’s also good for us. It helps us keep the relationship pure. The only intimacy we’ve experienced is hugging. Nothing beyond that. That’s how entrenched our Christian beliefs are.
My life was simple until I met a man recently. We had conversations about my life and my future. After telling him my story, he offered to help me financially if I want to further my education.
He didn’t tell me he wanted anything in return. I do need help with my education but I have been praying about his offer. I’m someone who believes in prophecies. A few weeks ago, during a prayer meeting at church, my pastor called me forward and said I have met a man who is genuinely willing to help me, and that this man is not just my helper. “He is the one God wants you to marry.”
Usually, I would be happy to receive a prophecy but this one completely shattered me.
Three Months After Our Breakup, He Got Married
How can this be? What about Thomas? What about our plans and the future we’ve been building together?
This has left me very confused and broken. I love Thomas so much. I cannot imagine leaving him. Please, I need advice. If anyone has ever gone through something similar, how did you handle it? On one hand is a better future education would give me, but on the other hand is my high school sweetheart. I don’t see an easy choice here.

Wow, this story is very similar to mine. I got the prophecy earlier this year that I shouldn’t marry this lady I have dated over the years because she is not meant for me and if I try and marry her she will always cheat on me. This girl has always been loyal to me and is a virgin too. I would have doubted the prophecy if the pastor didn’t tell me a secret I have never told anyone not even my mum. At first I didn’t know how to break up with her because she always say,”The way I’m in love with you please don’t break my heart else I don’t know what I would do with my life, I can kill myself if you leave me”. It was a very difficult situation at hand. I confronted one of my friends who is a minister of God and he said it has happens sometimes and I’m lucky God revealed mine to me earlier before stepping into a wrong marriage. And he concluded, if it is truly from God just pray about it, you won’t know how it will happen but the break up will happen. Surprisingly, last two weeks this lady I have been dating that all my family knows of said she does feel any love for me anymore and wants to move on because I’m giving all my attention to my long essay which I have to complete before my final paper in my 4 years in the university. Someone who said she couldn’t live without me? It really pains me up till now and wouldn’t have let her go that simple but I remember the prophecy and what my friend told me and had to let her go. I’m still heart broken but I know God has a bigger plan for me. In short, use my as a testimony and pray about it. Don’t force a break up, inform your parents and just pray about it. If it’s from God, it shall surely happen.
Waiting to complete school so I can share my story here for everyone to read.
Sorry to bust your bubble but this coincidence is clearly orchestrated! You have your whole life ahead of you with your soul partner who has remained true and pure to you all these years! Don’t risk it on the alter of a promise of a charlatan who has set you up with this so-called pastor. You are not the first neither will you be the last. If you allow the seeds of doubt to germinate, it will spoil the vibe between you and he may back off not because he doesn’t love you but because his love is so pure that he will risk losing you than see you unhappy. That’s what happened to our brother Kweku Frimpong and his lady. We pray that the good Lord helps you to avoid this trap. Amen
There are some prophecies God can change. Please pray about it you can even ask to change it for you ok and please always have the normal vibe with your guy
First of all, I encourage you to truly pray about things like this. I remember my girlfriend of over three years broke up with me right after I finished university — and I never fully understood why. I won’t claim I was perfect, but my love for her was genuine and pure. Out of nowhere, she began to distance herself, and eventually ended the relationship without any clear explanation.
Fast forward to several years later, we reconnected and started chatting again. I asked her why she left, and she told me it was because her pastor told her I wouldn’t be helpful to her future. Honestly, I was shocked. I never treated her badly. The only real challenge we had was the distance between us, since I was in university in another region.
By God’s grace, I’m doing well now and living abroad. And despite everything, whenever she reaches out for help, I still support her the best I can.
So I just want to say this — especially to you ladies: please be careful with following every so-called prophecy. Take time to pray, reflect, and seek God’s guidance personally. That breakup really affected me. It hurt deeply and left me struggling to fully trust any woman again.
Pray, reflect and seek God’s guidance personally. I hope she takes these.
All the best Nana and I hope you get the clarity to make a choice which is in God’s perfect will for you.
I hope the poster sees my comment. The best advice I ever heard on this kind of issue was from my pastor. He said we all have direct access to God and we have the Holy Spirit. God will not reveal something major like this to someone else without revealing it to you as well. The reason we can’t tell is if we’re not in tune with him and/or the Holy Spirit. Get on your knees, pray about the situation. If you have peace with your man that’s all the confirmation you need. God won’t give you something that will give you headache. If he wants you to go with this new guy, you would have peace with the decision.
Sammy said something up there and I think you should pay attention to it too.
Yes, pray to God about the situation. If you have another man of God, maybe consult him too, just saying
And back to Sammy’s message
Please investigate the prophecy,the pastor and the man trying to help you.
You meet a man today, tomorrow a pastor is telling you he is your husband. Maybe, just maybe, it isn’t a coincidence but rather something planned.
So yes, pray alright but do that too to be sure before you throw away everything you ve built with your guy.
I agree more with Sammy and Esi.
Take it to God in prayer.
I also praise you and your man Thomas for honouring God in your relationship by stay chaste. I can bet you that new man who connive with your pastor to distract you won’t hesitate to ask for intimacy. I’m rooting for Thomas, he has something pure that you can’t easily find in most men. I always thank God when couple reflect His holiness in their lives. All the best!
I would say its best u hear God urself seriously thats the best decision u can make u should never trust anyone because God is ur source pls dont jeopardise ur future
My dear look beyond ok. It sounds so sweet that this man wants to help. Pray to God and reflect on these. Your boyfriend respects your decision to be celibate and I really respect you both for that decision. God will surely see you guys through. You know what your decision is my dear. Just do it in accordance with God’s will. Being with the love of your life is a blessing.
