The need is strong to be with someone, to have someone to all your own, someone to snuggle up to on cold nights, to kiss goodnight, have long and deep conversations with... and all other sweet things people do in relationships.
But this need pales when compared to the need to be with someone who actually treats you right and meets all the great traits you expect to find in a partner before giving up your heart to them.

In Eniola Abumere's Youtube video published on May 14 2017, he and Wana, his guest, discuss the pros and cons of understanding one's self, setting reasonable relationship expectations, perfection, compromise and how to avoid disappointment in relationships.
