Dear Pastor,

I am 21 years old and I have a boyfriend, a dancer, whom I love so much. When we go out, he doesn't pay me any attention, but when we get home, he is always saying he is sorry and it won't happen again.

He doesn't like to see me around his or my friends. I am so crazy in love with this man even when we have an argument and he is saying I must not call or text his phone, I ignore what he says.

Pastor, please tell me what to do. I am confused and depressed. I don't know if he loves me. He always says he loves me, but I don't know if he really does. Help me please.

Ignored by boyfriend

Dear Ignored,

When a man loves a woman, he is not ashamed of her, whether she has one eye, one leg, deaf or blind. If she is his woman, the world can say what they want. He takes her wherever he wants to and does not ignore her whether they are at a party, at the movies, church, etc.

This man is a dancer and when you are out with him you give him space, but if he refuses to make you comfortable, he does not want people to know both of you are intimate friends. He is hiding from you in public. Lots of men take women out, but when they get to the function they become invisible.

Therefore, you should know he doesn't really care about you and you should stop harassing him. It is time for you to go. He won't even miss you when you leave, because he really wants you out of his life.

Pastor
