Attracted to a priest	Mary	Sunday, June 22, 2008
Question: Dear Brother, When I was 8 years old, I started growing and my first love at that age was my second cousin, who was dark, slightly taller than me and he looked nice to me. Since then I've liked quite a few boys but the closest I came to love, was with three, one my cousin and two others. All these three were dark, and look similar. I have a priest whom I have known for two years, he's dark, slightly taller than me and attractive. When I feel romantic I think of him. But he's a priest. I'm passionate, sensual, and when I'm in love I feel at peace with everything. Can you advise me?
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM Dear Mary: You need to be in prayer daily that your feelings toward this priest cease. You have no right to think this way toward a priest. Stop it. You also need to never be alone with this priest, and in fact you ought to change to a new parish. This priest does not need you to interfere with his soul and you need to protect your own soul Stay away from him. Do not see him again. Find another parish. God Bless, Bro.

Question:

Dear Brother,

When I was 8 years old, I started growing and my first love at that age was my second cousin, who was dark, slightly taller than me and he looked nice to me. Since then I've liked quite a few boys but the closest I came to love, was with three, one my cousin and two others. All these three were dark, and look similar. I have a priest whom I have known for two years, he's dark, slightly taller than me and attractive. When I feel romantic I think of him. But he's a priest. I'm passionate, sensual, and when I'm in love I feel at peace with everything. Can you advise me?

Dear Mary:

You need to be in prayer daily that your feelings toward this priest cease. You have no right to think this way toward a priest. Stop it.

You also need to never be alone with this priest, and in fact you ought to change to a new parish. This priest does not need you to interfere with his soul and you need to protect your own soul

Stay away from him. Do not see him again. Find another parish.

God Bless,
Bro. Ignatius Mary
