Dear Christine,
My boyfriend is away for almost a year now and I am getting pressure from another man who drinks like a fish but is very good at spending money on me and taking me out.
His drinking does not make him behave badly.
I had only thought about him as a friend, but now that he is getting serious, he is confusing my mind.
Another thing is that he has a woman with three children. They do not live together, but he looks after the children.
My boyfriend and I keep in contact and he is due home in another four months. Do you think I should stop going out with this man?

Dear P.L.,
My simple answer is yes. If you truly care for your boyfriend overseas and are looking forward to a future with him, stop playing games with this man and leave him to take care of his children.
You may be lonely right now and tempted to rush into a situation you could regret later. Start counting down the days to your boyfriend’s return and don’t give in to temptation.
– CHRISTINE
