Hello guys, I would like some advice and I really don’t know anyone I can talk about this with.
I am 26, always been Catholic and I am very introvert and shy especially with girls. My faith isn’t exactly rock solid, I can’t keep up with daily prayers and I have had problems with pornography.
A few months ago I have started a relationship with a girl I met online. She is from a Catholic family, but she is not practicing. We both think marriage should be the goal of a relationship, but she doesn’t really think pre-marital sex should be avoided. Long story short, with the help of my weakness towards this kind of temptations, we ended up exchanging really spicy and explicit messages. She is ok with this, while I think it’s not (even if I don’t do enough to stop it). I talked about this with a priest who suggested to end this relationship, as he thinks she wouldn’t make a good wife as she seems not to be interested in chastity… I don’t think I’m a better person than she is and maybe I’m a little too insecure on this, but all this story also makes me a little worried that if we were together she might cheat on me…
I think the priest is kinda right, but I’m afraid I’ll never find anyone if I let her go… What should I do?
Thank you all for your advice…
