|
Okay... I know this really nice girl, who also happens to be extremely desperate for a guy... and I know for a fact that a real jerky guy just e-mailed her, and is trying to hook up with her.
I, however, COULD get into her e-mail and delete it before she sees it, thus then she wouldn't ever get involved with this guy who I assure you is a piece of trash (and you think I'm bad!).
Now, there are surely holes in this scheme, and all... but should I do that? I mean, I know I should trust her to make the right decision, but she's failed me before, ya know? And I don't want her to get hurt... but I know her... and I can see her not being too smart here... 
Do the ends justify the means? Or should the Top Crusader mind his own business? |

Remember Rights, wrongs and reasons?
The end does not justify the means!
Censoring her life is not your job (unless God tells you too), so just pray God will open her eyes to the truth, and give her wisdom and good judgement, and God will guide her....
But don't be afraid to voice your concerns. |

Yeah, I know... but God gave me the ability to hack e-mail accounts for a reason!
Heh... I pretty much know what the right answer is, I suppose... but I hate to see her get hurt... yet again. 
I felt led to talk to her about this kind of thing just a few days ago... and I know that a couple of her other friends (without my intervention, mind you) have done the same.
So... maybe this is the test?
Ah, how I love these sleepless nights! |

| i know i would hate it if someone went behind my back like that. telling her that you trust she'll make the right decision will help her feel independant. i do know that when granny starts rattin' on me for not hanging up my coat(whats wrong with the floor?)it makes me want to disobay and if i feel pushed to do the right thing it makes me want to do the wrong. |

If this dude is REALLY worse than you (which would be truly remarkable) and she is really desperate, there's a simple answer. Ask her out.  I jokes |

Been there, done that, saw the movie, read the book... 
Ummm... although that is kind of the long-term goal... but not yet. I just want to keep her out of trouble up til that point. |

...unless she actually does the right thing... |

Uhm... I don't think your breaking and entering (email accounts) is a God given ability...
If you and your friends give her wise counsel, and she ignores it, the blame for what happens is her alone. Perhapse next time she will be more included to listen to you and your friends....
You have to let her fall down to learn, and sometimes she will need to fall sown over and over..... |

| Top! I'm shocked, frankly. I'd feel horribly betrayed if someone hacked into my email account. Naughty you. Don't you do that. If she's going to screw up her life, she's going to screw up her life, and its really not up to you to babysit her, you know? I speak from experience. Theres only so many times you can say something before it becomes nagging. I personally want to smack a friend of mine upside the head, but I don't. I just express disapproval, give some friendly advice, and let them know when their heart is broken again they can come crying to me for comfort. |

Yeah, yeah, I know... I'm not doing anything to her e-mail. Although, if deception and manipuation aren't fruits of the spirit, I'd like to know what is!
It's just really depressing to see that someone is going to get themselves hurt, and not do anything and everything to avoid that outcome. |
