Dear Pastor,
I am an 18-year-old young lady who is very hard working. I have a boyfriend and we've been together for the past two years.
Since lately, he has been acting a little weird. He is not working and his family provides for him. The problem I have is that he doesn't call me on a regular basis, only when he wants to have sex. I told him I wanted to break up with him. He told me that even if we broke up, he would not let me start another relationship in peace, and that I should think carefully about my decision.
Pastor, I had to change my cell number just to prove that I don't want anything more to do with him. I still love him.
Pastor, tell me what I should do?

Dear N.S.,
You need to go back to school. You are 18 years old and you have been sexually active from the age of 16. Now that you have decided to leave this guy, he has promised that he will not let you go in peace. Evidently he is a user. He only calls you when he wants to go to bed with you. The future with him is not bright. So, although you still love him, you need to stand on principle.
Let him go his way but, please, don't run into another relationship, as if you are crazy. Use your time wisely and go back to school.
Pastor
