  There are serious relationship issues that are not necessarily red flags, but that doesn't make them less of a deal breaker.  I find it imperative to make this post because these very serious issues are usually embodied by the so-called GOOD GUYS. And I am not taking about the Nigerian patriarchal woman version of good guy, I am talking about men who are objectively good to woman, men who can stay in a room with a drunk woman and she would be safe.   However, they embody some serious behavioural flaws like: ✖️ Poor hygiene. ✖️ Doesn't participate domestically. ✖️ Lazy and not driven. ✖️ Doesn't stand up for his wife. ✖️ Does not actively support his partner's ambitious.

  Susan has just been employed as a marketer in AB&C bank. It is her job to secure new customers who will open account with the bank. The bigger the deposits they make, the more money she earns. A client she is trying to secure keeps pressuring her for sexual favours in exchange for his deposit. The bank management pretends not to know what their marketers encounter on the field. In fact, they have a policy prohibiting workers form having unprofessional relationships with clients, YET, they do nothing to protect the employees whose payments are at the mercies of the client. The policy is just to safeguard the company from liability.  Ken is a nurse attendant at Holly Hospital. After attending to a patient, he turned his back to leave and the patient 'playfully' slapped his behind, leaving him in shock. His superior said there's nothing to be done. The patient is not an employee. Sean, a VIP client insists that a White, male doctor must be the one to treat him because h...
