Bible Question:
Hi, what do you do if your with your girlfriend whom you love and care about, but she does not like to be corrected and she can sometimes be manipulative and controlling because she is (19) and I'm (23). Don't get me wrong everyone, I'm not putting down my girlfriend here in anyway she's a loving person with a good heart. Lets just say when things don't go her way it's one of those deals her attitude changes instantly like the wind and it's almost impossible to get her to actually listen to you like a loving person should. How do you help that when you don't want to leave her and you beleive better for her? Thank you. |
Bible Answer: Hello Jason, Since I don't know you well, or your girlfriend, it's hard to give specific advice. We always need to work on ourselves first! (Phil. 2:4)Sometimes it just comes down to maturity- or the lack therof! She is 19 and I think that says a lot. A couple questions to consider: 1. Does your girl friend know the Lord? 2. Are you commited to her to the point you either are considering or would consider marriage? Since this is a Study Bible Forum and not the place for giving counsel, I'll limit my advice:-) My recommendation would be for you to sek the advice/guideance of a Pastor or other strong Christian couple within your church. They would know you- hopefully- and be in a closer and therefore better position to advise. (Prov. 9:9,11:14) You might also consider reading some books from the Christian bookstore on relationships. 2 I'd recommend are: "The 5 Love Languages" [Gary Chapman], and Fit To be Tied [Bill and Lynn Hybels]. I hope this helps, BradK |
