What does it means to follow God for what he has to offer and why is it wrong?
And what does it means to follow him for who he is?

Please explain like I'm a five year old with examples if you can.

It simply means submitting your life and will to trusting and obeying His commandments and Will, just as Jesus Christ showed us to.

When I trust and obey my Boyfriend for example, does I mean I'm no longer after his money?

Maybe he promised to me give N2 million naira to setup my business after I go to school. And I agreed(trust and obey).

Does it now means I'm following him for who he really is?

It simply means obeying God and his commandments.

Mark 12:30 summarises the whole thing, it says "And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment” (Mark 12:30, KJV).

I can't speak to your relationship with your boyfriend or anyone else, sorry!

It means u should serve him unconditionally, that is do not attach any condition as to why u are following him. For example, it is wrong to serve God because of the fear that u don't want to go to hell fire, rather u should serve him unconditionally because he is ur creator and u just have to serve him

And do you love God truly with all your heart, soul, mind and strength?
