Dear Pastor,

I am a 15-year-old student attending a prominent high school in Portland, and I've had sex with six different men in two weeks and I still can't get enough. My school work is OK because I have still been getting good grades, so no one at school or home notices. The guys that I have been having sex with are ages 22, 25, late 30s, one is about 19 and one is 20 years of age.

SWEET STUFF

When I'm alone with them they say everything a woman would want to hear and they are everything a woman would want in a man. The thing is that none of them knows about the other. The real problem is that I think I'm in love with the 25-year-old guy because I've had sex with him at least twice a week. My mom realised that something was wrong when I started having irregular periods. However, I told her that it is due to my change of diet and she believes. I don't live with my dad and sometimes when I want to meet one of the guys I tell my mom that I am going to look for my dad.

My question for you is how can I stop these urges and stop lying to my mom about my whereabout? My mom works hard to give me what I want, but I just can't seem to get enough of these men. I am really looking for your fatherly advice because there is no one else I can talk to. Thank you

Dear O.,

All these men with whom you are having sex can get into trouble with the law because you have not even reached the age of consent. Do these men know your age? I wonder if these guys are using condoms. I am saddened by your letter because you are so naive and yet you think that you are very smart. You lie to your mother when you want to go with men.

It would not be long before these men find out about each other and for the public to know that you are flashing your 'thing' around. Young girl, you are hurting yourself. Very soon what you are doing will affect you emotionally, psychologically and physically.

God did not intend for anyone to use sex that way. And believe me these guys are going to tell others that you are easy to get. You may not believe that they will talk but they will.

And after a while they are going to say that you are washed up and that you are no good. You are going to develop a very bad reputation. So I am begging you to stop.

All these guys may tell you that you are sweet. Perhaps you are indeed a very pretty girl but if you prostitute yourself, no one will see your beauty. Everyone will know that you are immoral and good people will not want to keep company with you.

Pastor

So, may God help you to tell the guys that you don't want to continue to do what you were doing. I also want you to pray and ask God to give you the strength to say no. Please go to church and read your Bible everyday.

Pastor
