Case 650
Six months ago, I started going out with a guy. I am a young woman that was studying medicine, but because of the pandemic I had to take a year off, with plans to go back next year. Now my boyfriend, whom I love, has asked me to marry him.... That implies having to give up my intended career, because he doesn’t want me to go back to the city where I had been studying.... [...]
Case 649
I am thirty and have three daughters. Five years ago, I got together with my current boyfriend, and we had my youngest daughter. My first two daughters are not his biologically, and I have noticed that he doesn’t love them. He fights with them all the time. They stay in their room because he treats them so badly. He has never wanted to get married and, even worse, we fight all the time because he [...]
Case 648
I am twenty-eight, and I have a son who is two and a half. I live with my son’s mother.... At first, she seemed like a good person, but within two months I didn’t like her anymore. However, I wasn’t brave enough to break up with her, so we continued in the relationship. By the fifth month, when I was about to break up with her, she told me that she was pregnant. In order [...]
Case 647
Six months ago, I began a relationship with a man who is an undocumented immigrant in another country. Our relationship has been and continues to be by telephone. He loves me and has asked me to be his wife. A month ago, he asked that we make video calls to get to know each other intimately. I gave in because I love him, but I don’t feel that this is right before God. We would [...]

I would like to have a family of my own, but I don’t believe that a good man exists. God [...]
Case 645
My mother-in-law hates me. She manipulates my girlfriend, who is her only child. I respect my girlfriend’s mother, but she has offended me many times. I believe that my girlfriend’s mother is worried that her daughter won’t support her anymore. She wants my girlfriend to give her everything because she doesn’t like to work. Because of this, I don’t see myself as happy by the side of my future wife. I want us to live [...]
Case 644
I am in a relationship with a fifty-four-year-old man. Several months have passed, and he is trying to convince me that it is normal to have sexual relations. I have told him that I think they are important, but only in a stable marriage relationship. He doesn’t want to get married because he says times are bad and he doesn’t want to face potentially bad repercussions. He says that if I won’t have sex with [...]
Case 643
I can’t stop thinking about something that bothers me and scares me to death. I have always wondered about eternity, and if sometime after death, once we’re in heaven, God will destroy us. It feels like He created us for a finite time period and, after that time is over, He will discard us. It may be a rather dumb thought, but it seriously affects me to keep thinking about this. Dear Friend, You are [...]

I am a shameful person, and feel very guilty about it! ... My boyfriend doesn’t [...]
