He keeps pestering me for marriage

Dear Pastor,

I am writing to you because I am in a situation and I don't know what to do. I am living with my child's father, but there is this other guy who wants to marry me. He has asked me to marry him twice before and I turned him down. Now, he is coming on even stronger and won't give up no matter what I say or do. I really need your advice.

Confused,

Dear Confused,

There are some men who don't give up easily, but if you were to give him a chance in your life, he would lose the respect that he has for you. He will always remember that you can't be trusted because while you were with your child's father, he was able to take you away from him.

I must tell you that this is not a good man. A good man would not want a woman to leave a man who has not done her wrong to go with another man. So tell this man that you are not interested in having a relationship with him so he should leave you alone. And, please, do not take anything from him or accept his phone calls.

Pastor
