Dear Pastor,
I am planning to get married, so my fiancé and I decided to confess to each other. She told me that she had had sex with someone else and that she is sorry. I love her with all my heart and I know she loves me too. But my question is: will she do it again? Tell me what you think.

Dear O. S.,
I don't know why your girlfriend confessed to you that she had sex with another man. Did you confess to her that you had sex with anybody else? And if you did, does she think that you will do it again? Confessions must be made to God and God only. This woman and you are not married, so why did you ask her to confess whether she had sex with someone else?
So many men always want to know how many men the women they say they are in love with has had sex with. And when the women tell them, they become tormented and they constantly bring these things up when they have disagreements. Men pretend that they are strong and able to hear and bear anything that is not pleasant, but the truth is, they are psychologically weak.
I know that some people are going to be mad at this answer, but I insist that no man should question a single woman how many men she has had in her life and how many times she has had sex with them. I can't tell you whether your woman would be unfaithful to you. But I can say to you that love covers the multitude of sin. If you love this woman, marry her.
Pastor
