I’ve been dating this guy for a while now. He’s sweet and all that, but there’s a problem. You cannot have a conversation with this guy in public. While I speak in an undertone, only for his hearing, he would broadcast everything for everyone around to hear. He doesn’t know how to whisper or speak to you discreetly. When I try to draw his attention to it, he gets angry that I’m trying to control how he speaks.

That aside, he likes bragging too much. I’m not saying he lies oh, but he would do something small for you and make sure everyone hears how he did this and that to make your life better. Just imagine this combination: a man who can’t speak softly and who brags. Everyone will hear your business.

So I’m unable to accept things from him freely because he would someday tell someone in my presence that if he hadn’t offered that, I would have been in the gutters by now. He has a way of exaggerating the little things he does for people. He would give you water today and tomorrow tell you you’re tall today because of the water he gave you yesterday.

I haven’t tackled his bragging side of things, but looking at how he reacts when I try to point out his loud voice, I’m scared addressing the bragging would make him explode. He’s sweet, oh. He doesn’t mind giving, serving, sacrificing for you, or going hungry so you can have his last. The only thing is, the world would hear about it—and it won’t be quiet. They would hear it loud and clear because he would talk about it with bass and tweeters.

How do you suggest I handle these two demons in my sweet boyfriend’s life? Eii Ɛnyɛ ooo. Ɛnyɛ koraaa. Mefɛri mpo.
