And if meeting with a priest makes you feel uncomfortable, make sure he’s unattractive.I’ve said this before but LB you really need to talk with a priest or get a spiritual director. I suggest a priest first who can also help you find a SD.
Hey that's totally true. I was in the confessional with one priest and suddenly I felt an "oh my gosh this man is totally hot, Lord have mercy" moment. I don't need to see that person very often, if at all.And if meeting with a priest makes you feel uncomfortable, make sure he’s unattractive.
We used to have a really hot priest at our parish, but he’s since been transferred.Hey that's totally true. I was in the confessional with one priest and suddenly I felt an "oh my gosh this man is totally hot, Lord have mercy" moment. I don't need to see that person very often, if at all.
Haha.I can't find a priest yet who's unattractive enough, lolol. This is comic relief actually. Ok there are a couple near me but they lack the warm-caring vibe and that won't work either. Ugh I need to think here. I can't exactly tell a priest "I chose you over my parish priest because I need someone less handsome," lol.
If they’re all somewhat attractive, just choose the least attractive one and if you have feelings or thoughts about him, that’s ok. They’re just thoughts or feelings you can’t control and it’s not a sin.I can't find a priest yet who's unattractive enough, lolol. This is comic relief actually.

She doesn’t need to “find a husband”.If all the priests are seeming to be attractive?
It may be time, in the not-so-distant future, to consider entering the dating scene and finding a husband.
And if you do FEEL like its a sin (it isn’t), go to confession (to a different priest) and just say something like “I don’t know if this is a sin or not but…..” I say that sometimes.If they’re all somewhat attractive, just choose the least attractive one and if you have feelings or thoughts about him, that’s ok.

I don't know what she needs ... nor really do I think that you do.She doesn’t need to “find a husband”.
to “find a husband”.
She never said that she can’t practice self control.I don't know what she needs ... nor really do I think that you do.
But I do know what the apostle Paul wrote in the book of Corinthians (1 Cor. 7:8-9):
"But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am; but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion."
I'm not comfortable speaking about someone as if they are not here and able to speak for themselves, that is, if there is something they want to respond to.She never said that she can’t practice self control.
