This one has "adult" content. In city ministry, one of the more common counselling situations is the man or woman who has entered a kind of contractual relationship for pleasure. Here is one story. A young woman came to see me. She had rare looks -- and was beautiful. She was engaged to a wealthy businessman, and had had a baby by him. She said: "All he wants is to get me between the sheets. I told him I want more from the relationship than this. He said, you'll get between the sheets, or I'll cancel your credit card." I read between the lines, though, that she had threatened to withhold favours if her credit didn't flow. OBSERVATION: This is a fairly classic situation, but the ways that these kinds of relationships go wrong are many.
