For the past eight months I’ve been in a romantic relationship with a married woman who is in the process of getting a divorce and has a nine-year-old daughter.... From the beginning we had a sexual relationship. I knew it was wrong, but we kept on doing it anyway. It was all secret. A week [...]
Until about eight months ago I was a very studious person, but around five months ago my sister was put in jail unjustly, and from that moment on there’s been a very drastic change in me. I don’t see life the same way that I did before. I’ve attempted suicide, but I haven’t been successful. [...]
My pregnancy with our daughter was very traumatic for me. I was sick the entire time... and there were times when my life was at risk. Then the birth almost killed me because of problems with the anesthesia.... I don’t want to go through that again. That experience left me afraid to get pregnant again, [...]

My mother is elderly and needs special care. My sisters and I have tried to shoulder this responsibility together, but I would like to have her with me all the time. I am married and have two children.... One of my sisters has told me that we should admit her to a home for the [...]
I have a girlfriend who attends the same church that I do. I feel like I love her a lot.... We have been going out and, on one of our dates, we went too far. Actually, we didn’t have sexual relations, but we have touched each other inappropriately. I’m very embarrassed to have to admit [...]
