I see thank you for your response! The issue has been sorted out gradually so thank you very much :)

I think she is concerned because she feels like I'm secretive about it all since I try to avoid telling her too much detail or about doctor appointments because I know she will want too much say and information which I'm uncomfortable sharing. I guess since I'm the eldest and first to get...

Is it considered instrusive or overstepping boundaries when parents try to control and dictate what sort of birth control if any to use in their children's upcoming marriage? I've told my mum several times that I would make a decision along with my husband to be and it's something I would...

I'm quite stressed out about my wedding preparation and it's taking a slight toll on my emotional and physical health (I've had less than 3 months to plan the wedding but we are discarding a lot of unnecessary details + simplifying things). My fiance and I have decided on a budget (8k) and we...

Hi everyone, I'm soon to be married in a few weeks time. Of course I'm excited/happy but at the same time, it is getting quite stressful and busy because we had a short engagement (so wedding planning and renovating the house at the same time). My question is whether this is worth something to...

Yes women do want to feel that you are attracted to them (sexually included) when you two are in a serious relationship. For a person with physical touch as main love language, refusal to show physical affection can be hurtful even when it seems logically sound and morally righteous (because it...

I'm conflicted as to what to feel or approach this situation. What are your thoughts on interacting and building meaningful relationships with fellow Christians who come across as self righteous and narrow minded? (Eg denying most entertainment and amusement - making a rule for others that this...

I don't think he has much choice in that regard since there is a list of novels and books he can teach to the students he is in charge of (chosen by the department of education and government). These books would be considered as the lesser evil ones compared to the others on the list.

So I'm guessing that it is rightly so that he censors these words from books by erasing them or covering them up? It's just I thought it was really weird but wasn't sure why I felt uncomfortable with this idea.

The words I'm talking about belong to novels (not books he wrote himself) e.g. passages that allude to sexual encounters, characters using God's name as forms of profanity and insults insults e.g. [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]

We are studying the 10 commandments at the moment and I've just been thinking about this question: One of the commandments is to NOT use God's not in vain (which by the way, includes "my goodness, oh my gosh?"). A pastor mentioned that God is not just concerned with our outward behaviour and...

Or is it a sin for Jewish women to be sent off to uni? I don't know...does anyone here know of any Jewish person who can testify whether this is true or not?

Someone told me that for the Jewish people, attending higher education (university), is considered to be a sin - encouraging Christian young people to likewise consider their choices carefully and to be on guard against the propaganda and corruption of the world. Can someone enlighten me on why...

Wow their journey is quite interesting and insightful. It must have been a big shock and adjustment for him...it takes a lot of humility on his part to actually understand that he was wrong and be willing to change because a lot of people wouldn't want to change even if they are told they are...

Did she tell him that she didn't like the idea instead of bottling it inside? I wonder how he found out that he was wrong and whether it came across his mind that renting their house out would cause her to resent him. Also, living in one's parent's house...could it possibly lead to problems...

As a married couple both making enough money with stable income, would you opt to: 1) live back at home (which means no mortgage) WITH an investment property (rent it out) = less financial burden/ debt but also less independence and privacy 2) move into your own place (mortgage, no investment...

Thank you for all your contribution and help. The conversation did happen and it didn't turn out to be the pressuring /intimidating one I anticipated and both sides were civil. Anyways, things are moving along but yes in response to the above poster, I am quite concerned about parents...

No we are waiting until marriage to have sex and I did say that making this waiting longer is not good. We want to honour God with this relationship

Arhh I tried to stop my parents but they are determined to clarify things with him - they said I'm free to date whoever I want but they are on the verge of not giving their blessing for our marriage if he continues to be so wishy washy. They said they don't ask him to marry soon but just setting...

Hmm ok I'll make sure my parents quit asking to avoid overstepping boundaries. If it is up to me, I'd probably wait until half way through next year to talk to him about it seriously. I just think if he truly wants to get married, then he will take the initiative regardless of the issue and stop...
