Thank you everybody for your input. Geri, thank you for taking the time to write about your experiences. I love where your dog was barking away when that "pastor" was talking to you. Don't you just love how dogs know and want to protect us? God definitely will answer prayers that Kolleen suggested and answer them fast. I will share something after quoting part of Kolleen's message. You may want to pray that the Lord would close all doors to unsavory men and their suggestive invitations. But you are the one who needs to close the door to them. Only you can choose whether to keep your home and social life totally separate from your work and home. I was chatting with a guy for almost a year. the problem is that I really liked him so it was hard to get him out of my life even though there were some red flags. Last time I was talking to him over the phone, I felt emotionally drained and was not sure how to end the conversation and end it with him. I finally prayed silently: "God, get this guy out of my life", a minute after I said that, he said: "Oh, looks like my son is trying to call me, I will take his call and get back to you" He got off the line and I never heard from him again, that was around 3 - 4 years ago. I am remembering that now and can't help laughing. I can imagine that guy still stuck on the phone with his son for all those years and wonder what his phone bill will look like. :mdrmdr: Prayer still works! TR
