With a grim smile, he responded, saying he bought an iPhone 12 for his personal use.

However, he gave it to his girlfriend after she saw the phone and seemed interested.

"My girlfriend saw the phone and was like she was interested in the phone, but because of love, I just gave her the phone."

The young man, who was overcome with emotion at that point, said that after giving out his new phone to his lover, he couldn't afford to replace it hence he had to settle for an iPhone 7.

Quizzed by the interviewer if he was still dating the lady in question, the young man answered no.

He explained that the lady, who is now a student of Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, jilted him for another man.

"I would just say best of luck to her and her guy," he said, looking sad.

A UK-based relationship counsellor, Ms Adwoa, in a comment to YEN.com.gh, stressed the advised persons in a relationship to be circumspect in the actions they take all in an attempt to please their partners.

"Genuine love includes compromise, understanding, and mutual support. Pleasing your partner is not conducive to building a healthy relationship."

At the time of filing the report, the video had raked in over 15,000 likes and 600 comments.
