I am replying to your response to my previous letter, you gave it the title "Man in the middle".

Just in case you do not remember, I was the 17-year-old facing a problem with my mom as she disapproved of the guy I am dating.

I appreciated your response as it really helped a lot.

In your reply you stated that you wished that I had stated his occupation. Well, he is a student at a respected university and majors in social sciences.

He is from another Caribbean island and is 20 years old.

I hope this helps in my hearing more from you and getting more of your input. I appreciate your work and your advice.

God bless you, and may he always grant you grace and mercy.

Dear J.C.,

Thank you for writing again. You are a good girl and you mean well. I believe that as you get older and receive a good education, you will make a valuable contribution to society.

Keep well and study hard and remember to strengthen the love relationship you have with your mother.

I appreciate the information on the young man who is showing great interest in you. Walk carefully and pray much about your future. God will direct your steps if you ask Him.
