Dear Pastor,

I am a 17-year-old who has been living in America. I moved here recently from Jamaica and I get along easily with my friends in school. My problem is that I think I am in love with my boyfriend back home but there is a guy here who would do anything for me. He really treats me well. I know what you are going to say, 'I am too young to have a boyfriend', but I am not going to do anything wrong. I am a Christian and is the guy in Jamaica. I am really confused about what to do. They both make me laugh and I enjoy their company very much.

Please, help me.

Dear Confused,

Both of these guys should be kept as social friends until you grow older and you are sure which of them you would like to be your husband. Right now, you are confused. I want you to know that very often, teenagers struggle in making decisions when several guys are interested in them. So go out with guys but do not make any commitment with any of them until you are older.

Pastor
