Dear Holly,
I’ve fallen in love with an absolutely
wonderful man who is kind and funny and loving. The only issue is
that he’s in jail for armed robbery and aggravated assault. We met
through one of those prison pen pal schemes, which I got involved
with soon after my last relationship went wrong. I’ve always had
trouble hanging on to men, but I’ve realised that I won’t face this
problem with a convicted criminal. One day a few weeks ago, I sat
down and wrote a short letter about myself and next thing I know, I’m
in the throes of romance with a lovely, dangerous man called Boycie.
Although we’re really happy together, some of my interfering
relatives are trying to make me end the relationship and now I am
faced with the decision to cut all ties with my family or give up my
knight in shining armour. To be honest, it’s not a hard decision to
make, but I am worried that it might be hard to shake off some of my
younger children. Do you think I’m doing the right thing?GwenManchester
