Re: Desperately Needing Advice

Huck - That's quite a bit of wisdom from someone who is almost half of my age :-) You have good points about being honest (which we should always strive to be....without volunteering information which is unnecessary or counterproductive). I'm not sure that she would really believe that I have never had a serious relationship since I'm in my middle thirties already, but I certainly can tell her that I've never felt about anyone the way that I do about her. I am definately scared, the way that you are, that sex would never satisfy the way that fantasies about boys do. There has never, for me, been any substitute for a really beautiful boy, but trusting that God can provide something better is a logical way to think. Your girlfriend is right on about putting God first in your relationship. This is what the bible guides us to do, and I have seen much success in people who have built relationships God's way. You are not alone. Ben
