Hey CheckMates, it’s Check Edgar here! Welcome to another episode of Why Am I Still Single? Today’s episode is titled Faith or Feelings, and trust me, this one hits close to home.

In this episode, I’m diving into one of the most unforgettable relationships of my life—a story of love and faith that pushed me to rethink everything I thought I knew. I fell for Amina, a remarkable Muslim woman, during the End SARS protests. But as our connection grew, so did the realization that we were up against some pretty big obstacles. From family reactions to the delicate balance between respecting her beliefs and honoring my own, this journey taught me what it really means to care about someone without trying to change who they are.

It’s a story of romance, respect, and hard choices—where we ask, when it comes to love, how much are we really willing to sacrifice?

Whether you’ve been in a relationship that tested your beliefs or just wondered how love can cross boundaries, this episode is for you. So sit back, listen in, and let’s talk about the delicate line between faith and feelings.
