SingleScenes

Q.    My boyfriend and I had the biggest falling out because we were at a club one night, and he disappeared outside with an ex-girlfriend he ran into.  When I found him, he was kissing her and became angry and accused me of following him.  I ended up leaving the place without him.  I have not seen him since and he has been calling to say he’s sorry, but I refuse to accept his apology.  I think what he did was rude and very disrespectful. He’s been begging me to give him another chance.   Would you?

A.   No.  I agree with you. His actions were rude and disrespectful, and I would never go near him again. Next time, he might give her a lift home with you in the back seat.

Q.   My mother is madly in love and is no longer suffering from the depression that plagued her for years.  My problem is that the man she loves and is planning to marry has hit on me several times and offered me money to sleep with him.  I am perplexed as to what to do because I’m afraid that if I tell her, she’ll freak out.  I hate to see her depressed again.  But I can’t let her marry this guy.  What would you do?  She is a church-going woman who feels God has finally sent her a mate.

A.  Tell her.  But first, I would talk to her Pastor about it, and get his advice on how to approach this matter.  I suggest you have him sit in when you break it to your mother.  She needs to know.  It could only get worse if they get married.
