ANSWER:

Thanks for signing up for our e-course. Take special focus on our chapter on positive thinking. You cannot change your past with your schooling, but you can change your future by making wise decisions, etc.

As far as your boyfriend - you are young so this does not come naturally... A boyfriend isn't someone you have to make happy. If you strive to make him happy, you may lose him in the end and suffocate him. Your self worth is not found in having a boyfriend love you. If it is, what happens if he ever makes a mistake? Are you going to dump him? Unfortunately, we all make mistakes and you may make one too one day. If he dumps you, you will be devastated because all your self worth was put in how he loved you.

God promises us long life if we love and obey him above all things and all people. If you date a guy who loves and obeys God too, naturally you both are focused on God which means you will come naturally closer to each other. So, when one of you makes a mistake but is genuinely sorry, forgiveness is much easier. Only God can give us the power to forgive those who hurt us.
