How ladies may avoid being murdered by their lovers.

1. State firmly from the beginning you are religious and that all his expectations are not consistent with yours.

2. Gifts will come. Just take flowers, cards and maybe a slippers. Expensive gifts must be rejected.

3. If he is decent, he must suggest to see your parents or family members. That gives you security, at least he is now known by others and that is a check on excesses.

4. When no commitment is undertaken, the lady must use the image of some man as her Whatsapp profile picture. It could be her brother, uncle or pastor. This is important because it will help to take him off the orbit of obsession.

5. Do not have intimacy with him. That decision comes after your initial assessment of his behavior, intentions and attitude.

6. Flee from jealous male partners. One-day they will show their inner character and that sometimes ends in tragedy.

7. Once he is persistently quibbling along the lines of jealousy, let an elderly person call him to advise him that the family has taken notice of what is going on and they are not happy about the mistreatment on her and the stress she is going through. The advisor may urge him to stay off the lady to allow a professional to conduct stress management on her.

8. Once the jealous man starts complaining and things gets sour, the lady should always move in the company of others and attend church in the company of others. For the church, find a way to let him know about it. It will moderate or tame him.

9. Do not enter a relationship because of money.

10. Do not underrate a quiet man. The construct of the face do not always reveal the mind. A seemingly good person can be a snake under grass. To offset danger, let the religiosity of a would-be partner be the criterion for accepting his proposal. Religion is the hat for those who think before they act .

11. Genuine men understand one thing about women. They know that what women like most is their freedom. If you want to know something is for you, set it free. If it is yours, it will come back.

12. Never tell a man you are quitting the relationship. Do not state it. Just allow the relationship itself to screech to a halt.

13. Do not pick up a phone call and then run to another room to talk. Another suspicion raiser is for your phone to bell but refuse to pick in his presence. At best, say you are tired of talking and avoid that call.
