    Good day ma'am. I'm a big fan of yours and one of your followers on Instagram. I'm a student in Nigeria currently facing financial crisis trying to raise funds to finish school and start a business. I've launched crowdfunding campaign on fundly and oncrowd but I've had no success with them. So I decided to reach out to kind hearted people like you who would love to support or donate to my cause. I really need this life changing opportunity and I'm open to answering questions and giving more information about myself to prove that I'm a real person in need. I really hope to hear back from you ma'am, do have a great day. I also left a msg on your Instagram page.

    Hi, I wanted to ask your opinion on a dating situation I had recently since I agree with and like a lot of your content. I posted in another black women uncensored group and they were basically saying I'm the problem and should be grateful he asked me out somewhere and not to his house. I admit I could've communicated a bit better and let me expectations be more known but do you think i was completely in the wrong for wanting concrete plans? I have screenshots you can read with this. Not sure how to attach them.

    Fumi. I have been with my boyfriend for 2 years. For the first 6 weeks, I was seeing another man that he had no idea about. 1 yr later when we moved in together, he come to find out after us bumping into him and I spun a web of lies to downplay the situation. There have been 3-4 other occasions I have lied to him about other things, but we decided to carry on building. I completely destroyed his trust and ‘spark’ - which I have been working on getting back. 12 months after this happened, he feels resentful for forgiving me and I’m not fulfilled with the dynamic. I am the chaser/golden retriever, he’s the black cat. He is a very masculine, protector and provider but the spark/feeling of being in love has disappeared. How can we work on changing this dynamic? Is it possible for us to ever work past this & him fall in love with me again?

    Dear Fumi, I'm a huge fan of your content and just recently enrolled in your course. I've been really enjoying the self-development approach to the course and am excited to continue working through it. My question for you today is: what are your thoughts on cohabitation? I recently had a friend ask for my advice on whether or not she should move in with her partner of 4 months. She says she wants to do it because they hang out daily and are "basically already living together" (her words). I've personally never lived with a partner before and my preference would be to wait until marriage. I'm not even religious--I just need that level of commitment before building a home/life with someone. Ultimately, my friend wanted to hear that she was doing the right thing and wasn't super interested in learning about the effects of sliding into cohabitation. We're also still pretty young (early to mid twenties) so I'm cautious about not rushing certain relationship milestones just to say I've reached them. I haven't seen much discussion surrounding this topic so I'm curious to know your thoughts on cohabitation and how it affects the course of a relationship. Thank you for taking the time to read this question! 🙂 A 20 Something Who Doesn't Want To Rush

    Hi Fumi, I recently started talking to this man, he has been giving me a good amount of his time and plans things out for us. I am extremely cautious with men and people in general these days, but I have grown feelings for him. We did have sex once and in reading something recently about “situationships” and how men will keep you around if they’re getting everything with no commitment, would it be stupid of me to now tell him I’d like to hold off on the intimacy for now until I know he’s taking me seriously. Or would that make me look silly. Basically is there no going back from that? I look forward to hopefully hearing back from you.
