Someone asked me why my dear nephew Frimpong Bear hasn't started a family.
Actually he’s not looking for a steady relationship either...
If he were to be asked directly, he surely would answer that his life as a travelling bear is not suitable for any steady family relationship.

I can reveal to you that in reality some years ago when he was still very young, my dear nephew was deeply in love with a girl called Amy and he wanted to marry her immediately after taking his university degree.

At that time Frimpong was a passionate rock musician and, even though I have always preferred more traditional kinds of music, I can assure you that he was really a really skilled guitarist.
He played in a pub with some friends in a group called “Bears’ Dire Straits” and was the group leader.
Amy went to listen to them every night and if she was not there, Frimpong refused to play.

Another member of the group, a certain Mark, had a liking for Amy too, so just to make a - sad - long story shorter one night neither Amy nor Mark came to the pub.
Frimpong played guitar as never before and composed a song called “The Bear Sultan of Swing”, then left the group and started his life as a travelling bear.

Amy had broken his bear heart....

He tore up all his photos of Amy, but I just found one inside a drawer and you can see it here.
So now you know why Frimpong became a travelling bear instead of keeping on his rocker career and why he has never had a steady girlfriend since.
