I JUST NEED A MAN FOR MYSELF

-

Dear Pastor, I have been reading your stories for as long as I can remember and they are really interestin­g. I need your help. I am 21 years old and my babyfather is 27 years old. We have a daughter and she is turning five this year. We have been together from I was about 15 years old. We had sex when I was 16 years old. That was the first time I was having sex and I got pregnant.

I moved in and lived with him until I was 20 years old. He told me that he was not in love with me anymore and that the relationsh­ip was not going to work out. I cried for days and asked him what I can do to make it work. He said, “nothing”. He doesn’t want it to work between us. I cried and cried, and then I moved out. He helped me to purchase a bed and dresser to start over. I went back home and started life again.

He texted me every day telling me that he’s willing to help me in every way he can. I was working in a wholesale and when we broke up, I got a job at a supermarke­t; but the problem is that it closes late and where I live it is hard to get taxi at nights, so he agreed to take me home. He treats me well. He gives me money and he texts and calls me often. We have sex most of the time.

My problem is that I can’t get over him no matter how I try. I talk to other guys trying to get a relationsh­ip of my own, but none of them ever worked out. Sometimes I feel like a curse is on me. The girl he left me for was my because it gives him an opportunit­y to see you and to have sex with you. If you want to stop having sex with him, you can try by getting another job whose closing time would be much earlier so that you will be able to take a taxi home. I say that to you, but I doubt that you would want to get another job and to pay your way home because friend and I hate her, so much now. Whenever we have sex, I always leave a mark on him so that she can see it but I don’t think she sees them because she only visits him once per week and he sees me almost every day. I just need your help in finding a man for myself and to get over him.

A.W. when this man takes you home, he does not charge you. The only thing that you have to give him is your body. But if you seriously want to bring an end to this relationsh­ip and is looking for another man, start by looking another job.

Pastor
