A lively debate unfolded on Dreamz FM’s “Breakfast Today” show as panelists discussed whether individuals should fully heal from past relationships before entering new ones.
Eunice Aboyei argued that emotional healing is essential to avoid transferring unresolved pain to new partners.
“Don’t allow someone to use you to heal,” she said. “If you are not healed, you will hurt the other person.”
She cited examples of individuals carrying emotional baggage into new relationships, leading to toxicity and misunderstandings.
However, Prosper Wooma offered a contrasting view, suggesting that waiting to fully heal could take too long and may not be practical.
“You don’t necessarily have to heal before you get into another relationship,” he said. “You just have to be careful.”
The panel also explored the role of self-love, with participants agreeing that understanding one’s worth can influence how individuals are treated in relationships.
The discussion reflects ongoing conversations about mental health and emotional readiness in modern dating, as more young people navigate love in an increasingly complex social landscape.
