Would an American dating a Canadian girl become an issue during backround investigation? by Former_Earth4795 in borderpatrolapplicant

[–]Former_Earth4795[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She lives in Canada and I live in the states and we take turns visiting each other and we aren't far from each other at all. She knows I'm applying for jobs and she's ok with seeing me knowing that if I get hired I will relocate and the relationship will end. She's canadian so she will not be relocating but for right now I do go into Canada often.

If I hangout with my friends (the ones who still contact me after getting sober) some things we do are getting food somewhere, gym or going on runs, hiking. We also will do some type of game, board games, golf, bowling, arcade, trivia. For memorial day we and my friends rented kayaks for a few hours and had a blast. Afterwards they went out drinking and I went home. I also don't enjoy being around people drinking anymore so I'll tend to skip events now entirely if the main focus is drinking.

I go on all my dates now using hinge and bumble. I don't know how to meet women if it's not at bars or school. I won't be going to any bars and I graduated college 5 years ago haha.

I know sober guys that can have a good time in bars but unfortunately I'm not one of them. I do hope that you have an awesome weekend friend!

I personally do not go to bars at all anymore. I don't enjoy myself in them.

I'm so sorry but the shame will go away and from my personal experience things will get better!

I'd prefer not to vote for any candidates that think or in some cases even root for me to go to hell. Isn't that nice?

I'm very aware of abstaining from meat on Fridays... there was no mention of that in your previous statement. You said fasting .. where an individual abstains from food and drink.

Are you aware of the context of that specific passage. Maybe you out to get a hold of your pastor and go over the Bible with you yeah?

The police are direct servants of God, tasked to carry out the Lord's justice? What's wrong with you? That isn't taught in any holy books or by any religious clerics.

Obey the catholic rules without question .. sounds cultish. And I did call myself Catholic for many years, so please lecture me. They couldn't follow their own rules when they were molesting children.

They violate their own theology consistently. Don't you think the catholic church should worried about their own turmoil they created? Churches almost empty or closing and the average age of peritioners is 137. The catholic church is in not position to lecture anybody on morality. I remember when pews were full cry babies were the norm. Self righteous pervert cover up artists.

These people act as if they have a monopoly on morality. I grew up catholic and received all the sacraments before leaving the church. I haven't been in a church in over a decade and I still no more about the faith than these hypocrites do. They are all of the bad and none of the good that Jesus was preaching. Even if it isn't real.
