    Need advice on my loans and fiance`

    free4all, thank you. I am going to pay of the loans, I just need to show her that it is the right thing to do. I am terrible with explaining how I feel (b/c I was raised only on the opinion level and rarely went past it to emotions), so she doesn't see great reasons. I have briefly used what...

    Need advice on my loans and fiance`

    No no bliz, I was simply stating what she would say if she was here, and what she has said to me. I agree that my parents shouldn't have cosigned, but I am not holding it against them. I signed them as well, and I was the one pushing to go to college. Yes, I wasn't ready at all, but I need to...

    Need advice on my loans and fiance`

    OK OK..............I now feel the need to explain a little more about this situation. Theres a few reason why my fiance wants to 'dump' them onto my parents: 1) In high school I showed no signs that I should go onto college. I got mostly Bs throughout it, and during senior year it turned bad...

    Help needed w/ loans and fiance`

    Here is the short story so I don't bore the readers. I went to college for only 2 years, and my fiance` went for 3 but graduated early (yes in 3 years). I'm only half done but not in school anymore, and I have WAY more loans than here. All of my loans/debt are from school, and they are high...

    Being 'the' leader

    Awesome post Starelda, very imformative. If you don't mind, could you expand on the nagging, submitting, leading issue you brought up. I somewhat understand what you are talking about, but if you could go into more detail that would be wonderful. Great links as well, helpful!

    Being 'the' leader

    A few sex related questions

    Where in the bible does it say no sex before marriage? What is the definition of sexually immorality? Everything that I've found (and a few others), says nothing about no sex before marriage. It talks about sexually immorality, but it doesn't define it. It says avioding sexually immorality...

    I'm so in love! :D

    That is awesome rooster, esp since you are 40 and I'm sure you've been married for at least 10 years. Anyways, I get that feeling every time I see my SO! It's a wonderful feeling I wish I could bottle up and unleash when I can't see her.

    Trust Issues - What to do

    gwen, I seem to think that we aren't getting the whole story. There has to be some reason why he doesn't trust you. Whether that was you cheating on him, or you lied to someone else and now he thinks that, it seems off. Anyways, that doesn't really matter. If you boyfriend is a Christian, he...
