Dear Bro Jo,
Thanks. I guess this can really be more serious than I originally thought. I actually did send this to my friend's Mom (I think she'll be able to get through to my friend better). Her Mom was already concerned, but I'll bet this will make it a lot clearer. I'm not jealous (I don't really know the guy) but I can see how that might be a problem, so thank you for bringing it up. I think, though, that my friend trusts me and won't mind.
I didn't really know what to make of this before, but I understand now that it's pretty inappropriate. I just want to make sure my friend is safe. Thanks again for everything.

Dear Pal,
Thank you for being the type of Young Woman that cares about the safety of others.
This situation is a lot inappropriate.
Keep the Faith,
- Bro Jo
Dear Bro Jo,
I'm very grateful for your advice. I believe my friends' Mom sent you an e-mail, as well, clarifying the situation. Thank you for all the advice you give... it's nice just to be able to look at your blog and get answers from an LDS, impartial perspective. I really appreciate it.
Sincerely,
-Pal
Dear Pal,
I did hear from your friend's mom, thanks for passing on the email. I take back what I said about you being jealous. After corresponding with her (the mother), I think you really are just a sincere friend.
