Dear Pastor,

I am 18 and I have a boyfriend. He told me I am his future wife, but it doesn't seem so because every time I call him he is with another girl. I have a girlfriend who is 19, and she told me I should not let boys fool me. It is better to love girls than boys. She has been inviting me out. I don't want to go but sometimes I think about it. Thanks for your advice.

E.R.

Dear E.R.,

First of all, don't be tempted at all to become intimate with any woman. This girl who has been telling you not to love boys, but to love girls instead, you should tell her you are not interested. If she continues to harass you, end the friendship with her.

Concerning your boyfriend, evidently, he is very popular with the girls. Don't allow that to frustrate you. You don't have to have a steady boyfriend right now. Concentrate on a career and give yourself more time to grow and understand yourself and men better.

Pastor
