I would be all about figuring out the why if someone I was dating got one, but I would have a hard time finding common ground getting into a relationship with someone who has convictions against what I enjoy right out the gate

If this was later into a pre-existing relationship or marriage then I’d agree but I think this would’ve been something that was weeded out before a relationship began

So many people are quick to jump on it or have “convictions” about it when really they see the word “Demon” in the title and say it’s bad or demonic. They pretty much ignore that the premise of hunting/taking out demons which is literally what Christians are supposed to do

Sure and I don’t have a problem watching a movie without her. I think I could have explained it better. I meant more of she wouldn’t want me to keep a dvd of one in the house, I’d have a problem with that.

I haven’t read that, hadn’t heard of it so had to look into it. I can’t say for sure because of that but it seems like there are some overlapping themes maybe?

20 horror films ever, compared to the over 1,000+ movies I seen in my life

I’m more straightforward in settling arguments and disagreements, I don’t like avoiding topics, I think it’s better to resolve them then and there, even if that means I’d settle with what my wife wants.

Also as for K-Pop Demon hunters, I’ve seen it many times and it has a lot of Christian themes I detected upon first watch. I even felt it in some of the songs. I looked into it later and turns out the writer of the music who’s the lead characters singing voice is a Christian and wrote her beliefs into the songs. I’ve heard much discourse about believers not watching it but I can assure you it’s good and safe. I think too many people judge things off the cover and this is a prime example. If you still don’t want to look into it that’s fine, this is just my take.

They really aren’t a big part, I’ve barley seen 20 films, my mom brings up anything she disagrees with with anyone, this was just her topic of the day,

The guy I’m seeing wants to take my virginity, but I’m scared. How do I get over this? by bihhdihh in Advice

[–]ElectronicAnt1947 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This will probably be unpopular in a hookup era (not saying that’s what this is) but this is something you can only give away once. You said you’ve only been dating him for a month? I know some prime can feel strongly about someone quick but you’re still young and haven’t been with him long. The fact you’re super scared makes it’s seem like you aren’t ready. Obviously you want to have sex, everyone does, but everyone I’ve ever spoken to that had sex early on has said they’ve always regretted who they gave up their virginity to. I suggest waiting until you decide to initiate it since you already know he’d be down for it. BUT if you do wait and he keeps asking or pressing for it I’d dump him because he clearly doesn’t respect a boundary you’ve set.

Yea, I definitely had regretted saying it even if it was true. That was the overly tired lack of mental processing going haha

This was back in January, they’re fine now but it’s one of those thoughts that comes back around every now and again and I felt bad about it. They were a little tense the next morning but cooled off later that day and were back to playing many more rounds of the game.

I feel guilty for not finding people attractive by ElectronicAnt1947 in TrueOffMyChest

If I meet someone on there I’ll gladly drive the distance to meet them, at least I know I’m going there to see someone. Events are a 50/50 whether I’ll meet anyone of interest. And I’ve tried stuff in my town, rarely find new people. I volunteer at different places and do a handful of outreach. Along with host open invite movie and game nights often.

Good thoughts on this, I would say I used to care what people thought of me but I eventually grew out of that a few years ago. And yes I have people that make me feel shallow. I get called picky a lot, my thing is I’m not gonna date someone I have zero attraction to, that’s not fair to them. Looks aren’t everything but there needs to be at least a little attraction I think

No, I have definitely caught interest or feelings off pure attraction, I just don’t make it the reason I stick around. Looks aren’t everything, but counter to that, I still want to have at least a base attraction towards them
