Dear Pastor,
I am writing this letter to tell you about my boyfriend. He does not want me to leave the house. If I am going out he has to be there with me. It is like he is some kind of watchman. When I am going out with my friends, he tells me to stay home. When my phone rings, he wants to know who is calling. He tells me the only man that should call me is my father. I don't know what to do because I love him.
Pastor, help me and tell me what to do.
K.W., USA
Dear K. W.,
This guy is just your boyfriend and he has to understand that it is wrong to control you. He is immature and silly. If he wants to accompany you everywhere, he is watching you to see if you are going to meet another man. This is not a good relationship and you should leave him.
Pastor
