You still have milk behind your ears
and d o n ’t need to think about be­
ing with a girl or boy at this stage in
your life. Y ou’re caught up in peer
pressure and are leaning tow ards
w hat the rest o f the crow d is doing.
Y ou’re not gay. Y ou’re ju st a teen
with confusion and the need for
acceptance. Focus on your spiri­
tual relationship, educational goals
and hobbies th at’ll help you grow

foundation and teaching, you know
the way and if your boyfriend re­

for him. You should hang on to
your faith and strong prayer and let
go and let G od do the rest.

Dear Anthony:
Thank you so much for the sup­
port. Life, people and places are real
and w ords o f w isdom and advice
should be the sam e. At the end of
the day, people c a n ’t handle the
truth and w ould prefer feel good
honesty which is sim ply a lie. W hen
you think about it people should
get mad, get pum ped and then take
action and keep it moving.
