She is having a tough time though, because, as far as I know, the RC Church views premarital sex as a sin. The problem she is having is that she doesn't consider it a sin, it isn't something she regrets doing, and so doesn't believe that she can truly confess and feel sorry for it. She is, however, a pretty religious person, and so doesn't want sins hanging over her head. Any thoughts/opinions/words of advice I could give her?
maybe she should be speaking to her pastor or other clergy to help her sort it out...
