Tell Me Pastor

My man speaks badly of me

Dear Pastor,

I am a 15-year-old girl. I am in love with a 19-year-old man who says that he loves me. We have been dating for two years and I really love him. However, whenever we are around our friends, he says bad things about me as if I am not even there. I asked him to stop, but he said that he liked making fun of me. As a result, we fought and broke up.

Sometimes he calls me and we end up not talking to each other for days. I don't know what to do. I really love him, but I won't let him talk bad things about me anymore.

A.A., Washington D.C

Dear A.A.,

This 19-year-old guy sees you as a little girl. He is an adult. You are not. Both of you should not be intimate. He should not be embarrassing you in the presence of his friends. Stop going out with him.

Pastor
