 On the Same Boat
I have shared how my life is at the moment in the workplace where I am in.  Still I am connected with the man I told you before. With God's help the connection is still within the bounds of friendship. 

He is a man twenty years older than I.  He also says that his gesture of love is done out of friendship; for, as you remember, he also has his own family.  Moreover, he has a good reputation in our community.  If I raise the topic of how our professional relationship has evolved he would say that we are friends and that's how it will be.  Although, I have asked him several times that we should keep our distance,i.e., we should not be talking nor texting anymore, he would try to clarify that we are just friends and that we know our selves and our limitations.

When he talks like that  I feel like Im being treated like a child that is tagged along a place I am not comfortable in because of fear of what will people say.  But on the second thought,I know that what he is saying is true.  We are well aware where we stand and that there is nothing to worry about.  However, I am always rethinking this stand for I know, as an adult, I am responsible in this situation.  And because of that I have to take action.

But making decision is something I am doing slowly.  You see I am married and I have a child.  THis daughter of mine depends on me for her daily needs.  My husband's salary is not enough to cover for our needs.  The thought of moving to another place and having a new job can not come easily because of my fear of job security.  Its difficult to act in a snap when you have to consider not only yourself but the people around you.  Can my new job meet my basic needs? What if I become a victim of retrenchement which has made many workers suffer here nowadays...

So for the moment, unless God shows me the way to a new better and secure job, I am opting to stay.  At the moment I am hanging on prayers that I will be strengthened by God and the Holy Spirit to do what is right and not hurt my self, my family and other people in whatever I am doing.

May you enlighten me on this if you feel I should do otherwise, thank you.

sweet one can you slowly put distance? just slowly...maybe no more texting... that is one way a man keeps tabs (contact). Perhaps go longer between answers, something. No need to lose your job. Just pray and seek wisdom.
