Ask a Very Smart Brotha Live: High School Sweethearts & Love Languages

Monica: Hi Damon here is my question: My HS sweetheart found me after 17 years apart on Facebook last September. It’s like time picked up from the first phone call. Currently after many conversations as well as fasting and praying, I’m relocating back to Chicago from Georgia first to find work(not many jobs). I lost my apt and he offered for me to come live with him. We both are divorced and he lost his son in a tragic accident last year as well as his mother and older brother in previous years. I do care for him and rite now during this time, before I move which is in 4 weeks, he had his ex wife break in his house. He went to court and now he’s having issues with his job. I’m trying to stay prayerful but it’s on my mind. He said to make me comfortable we can move but I’ve already lived out of bags and boxes one other time before when I left the Midwest to move south after my divorce. Please help. I’m tired.

D.Y.: I think you should still make the move, but get your OWN place and DATE him for a while. Like, go on actual dates and Shyte. No bf/gf yet, and definitely no cohabitation.
