Narrating his ordeal, he explained that his heartbreak was so intense that he used to join funeral processions just to have an excuse to cry his heart out without raising suspicion.
Commenting under the video with TikTok account Barima Kwabena Sekyere, he noted:
"I was going to random funerals just to cry my heart out. Hmm."
His comments add to the many heartbreak stories shared in the video. Recounting her experience, Yvonne Afare, a self-styled entrepreneur, narrated how the pain of heartbreak drove her into a depressive state.
According to her, there were times she would completely lose herself in public, not even knowing what she was doing. She said:
"Heartbreak is very painful, especially when the love is deep and well-bonded. I could drive to the fuel station completely unaware of myself, with no intention of buying fuel.

"The attendants would question me several times, and I would be completely clueless. I spent over 45 minutes there, still unaware of myself.”
