Dear Rachael,

I am going through the same exact thing that you describe. I
don't have any answers for you, but I sympathize with you. A
boundary has been crossed and the guy you're talking about
sounds like he is using religion as a drug; something to get
high off of. Some philosopher once said, "Religion is the
opiate of the masses." I hope it has gotten better for you.
