The answer

A woman is not permitted to establish a relationship with a man, even over the phone, because it involves corruption, temptation, and a sickness of the heart, as it includes a soft manner of speech and forbidden words. She must sever all forms of relationship with this young man as a condition for the validity of her repentance. She should not pay attention to the words of bad friends who want her to remain in what is unlawful. She is not responsible for the young man if he threatens suicide; rather, she is responsible for herself. And she must choose righteous companionship.
