While a perfect man does not exist, there are certain qualities that can make a man stand out in a relationship.
Isaya Yunge, who is engaged to First Daughter Charlene Ruto, has been in the headlines since news of their engagement became public, with many people expressing interest in knowing more about him.
As Kenyans continue to learn more about Yunge, some of his noticeable qualities offer lessons that men can pick from. From openly showing affection to his faith and acts of kindness, there are things about his public life that may appeal to many women.
1. Do not be afraid to be a lover boy
Kenyan men can be lover boys too, and there is nothing wrong with showing affection to the woman you love. However, many men tend to be nonchalant or prefer keeping their relationships private.
Yunge has taken a different approach in recent days. For about three days, he has been publicly expressing his love for Charleneand showing how much she means to him.
While being posted on social media by your partner is not everything in a relationship, a good number of women love such gestures. For some women, seeing their partner openly express affection can be reassuring and make them feel appreciated.
Men do not always have to hide their soft side. Sometimes, showing love, celebrating your partner and letting them know they are valued can go a long way.
2. Be a man of faith
Another noticeable quality about Yunge is his faith. Being able to believe in a supreme being is something that some women value when looking for a partner.
It does not matter whether someone is Muslim, Indian or Christian. Faith can mean different things to different people, but for some women, having a man who believes in God is important.
On his page, Yunge has quoted Bible verses a couple of times, giving a glimpse into his beliefs. For women who value faith in a relationship, this can be an important quality in a partner.
3. Show compassion
Yunge has also shared videos of himself helping people in need once in a while. His acts of charity point to another quality that Kenyan men can learn from: compassion.
Helping people who are struggling does not always have to involve big gestures. Charity is beautiful, and being willing to help someone in need shows concern for other people.
Ultimately, no man is perfect, and relationships require understanding from both partners. However, showing love openly, having faith and being compassionate are qualities that can make a man stand out.
