    Just for Fun: Deal Breakers Game

    No, it wouldn't bother me at all. I don't like orange juice. Would it be a deal breaker if your SO colored in coloring books on long car rides?

    How Did He / She Propose?

    At the park, on the playground. We're adults that like to play like kids.

    Just for Fun: Deal Breakers Game

    Nah, but I would laugh my head off a lot. I love fart humor. I'm a 5 year old. Would it be a dealbreaker if your partner peed/pooped with the bathroom door open?

    Upsetting Over Girlfriends Past

    You run the risk of seriously hurting her if you talk to her about this. She has previously told you about it, and I'm sure it was difficult for her to do so. If you tell her that this bothers you, she will (at least temporarily) feel like you are judging her for what she says (which you sort of...

    Upsetting Over Girlfriends Past

    I can see this from her side. My situation is the exact same, but I'm the girl. I wholeheartedly agree with BFine 1000%. She is forgiven by Jesus just as much as you are. What gives you the authority to not give her forgiveness while Jesus can? I'm not trying to be rude or ugly (text does not...

    [Moved from Courting Couples] My GF said this..

    Her theology may be a little skewed, but yours is WAY off. Saying "i'm not a homophobe, I have gay friends" is just as incorrect as saying "i'm not racist, I have black/asian/hispanic/jewish/etc friends." Its non-sequitur. You're both wrong. She's at least more right in saying that being gay...

    [Moved from Courting Couples] My GF said this..

    Just to point it out: "being gay" is not a sin. Having feelings for someone of the same gender is not a sin. ACTING on those feelings is a sin. "Being gay" is not a sin. "Having homosexual relations" is. There is a difference.

    Maid of Honor vs. Bridesmaid (kind of long)

    I am getting married next summer. But I have already picked my Maid of Honor and my bridesmaids. Well, my friend Beth** and I are really close. We have been pretty close for the past few years. We have sort of had arguments, but never really fights. We've been frustrated with each other, but...

    Oh mylanta!

    1) She's involved in my relationship as a mother should be. Being 18 or not doesn't matter. 2) She didn't call him. He called her. 3) She knows when to stop. My family is involved in my courtship.

    You Know It's Going To Be A Bad Summer...

    I'm over here in Louisiana, and the sun is nightmarish (like the irony there? ;) ) So, I'll add: 3. You have to do laundry twice as often because you wear 2 outfits per day. One for morning and one for after the first one has gotten too soggy to bear.

    Say Something Positive about your BF/GF

    I love my boyfriend because he is sweet and caring, no matter how crazy I can be. He's smart and has a real passion for God. He always has a kind word, and has a very kind heart.

    Good Idea for Long Distance Realationships

    Yeah, boyfriend is 7 hours away from me as well. Its not that long. We see each other about once every month, when we can. Skype dates are awesome. We'll decide what we want for dinner, go get it at our respective residences, and eat in front of the webcam. Then, we'll watch a movie or tv show...

    Courting vs. dating

    Ahhh, gotcha gotcha gotcha. Yeah, I've heard the "no praying together before marriage" from a friend and I went ballistic. Courting does have a lot of different definitions, some of which more more ridiculous than others. Sometimes, SO and I just tell others that we're "seeing each other" so...

    Engaged: How do I deal with this?

    Just posting to say that everyone above is correct, and I'm saying the same thing as them. Put the wedding on hold until you both see eye-to-eye. Talk to her about it. Its not a bad thing to talk about sex as long as you're limiting it to within marriage. Limiting it completely is a big deal.

    Courting vs. dating

    Oh, I know the definition of dating. I live in the secular world as well. And I'm cer-her-her-tainly not trying to create a notion of superiority in any fashion. I'm really just trying to save the concept of courting vs. dating in the mind of other people. I've dated around and had dating...
