One of my friends is in love with a non-believer. She is so emotionally attached to him and does not want to put in any effort to stay away from him. She started doubting everything in the Church and does not want to listen to anyone's advice. What should I do?

Your friend needs sincere, heartfelt prayer. Her close friends should not be disheartened if she tries to push them away. Rather, stay in her life. Maybe, he will see the light and convert to Christianity or maybe she will see the light and let him go. Let her priest know. Place her name on the altar. Do not neglect her in your prayers and fasts. Who would forget or neglect a loved one in that circumstance? Use every opportunity to share messages from the Holy Scripture, "praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints" (Ephesians 6:18).
