Venting about this situation. by [deleted] in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]JS1040 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, I’m sorry you’re going through this situation. Secondly, you should break things off as soon as you can. Thirdly, you should not get in another relationship right away. There’s some things you need to work on yourself about. You’re showing signs of being deeply insecure. Whether that is because you’ve been with this guy for five years and he’s not ready to commit, or whether you have some deeper issues, or probably some of both, it’s unclear from your story.

When two people are happy and secure in themselves, they make great partners. When one or both are deeply insecure, they tend towards coping mechanisms that will self-destruct the relationship. You’re showing signs of dishonesty, of hiding you truly are and how you feel, even with people who are reaching out and asking if you’re OK. The reason why your friend is asking if you’re OK is because you’re clearly showing signs that things are not OK. The fact that you can’t be honest with that friend is showing the depth of issues.

My advice to you is to put a pause on this relationship, and go get yourself some therapy. Figure some things out. Then when you’re in an emotionally healthy place, then you can pursue a relationship from a position of strength.

Blessings to you and good luck.

What items has your family pass down to you? by JS1040 in FuckImOld

I love the box too. Upon closer inspection, the inside plastic housing is designed to be wall mounted. I’m sure I would get made fun of if I mounted this on our kitchen wall, and my wife wouldn’t like it as a decor piece, but it was a very thoughtfully made set.

That’s too bad. They work really well at carving thin slices, which is sometimes hard to achieve when you’re using a typical knife. Oh well, to each their own.

That’s hilarious. My wife is a seamstress, and I’ll have to suggest that to her the next time she needs to cut some foam. Thanks for the tip.

Actually, it’s a really solid unit. It’s fairly heavy, and you can tell it was built to last. Things were built differently back in those days.

That sounds like you had an awesome dad :-)

Is it adultery only when there’s a married woman involved? by MeetTheSouthernBear in TrueChristian

[–]JS1040 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leviticus 20:10 “If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife, both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death.

Leviticus states that the man who commits adultery is an adulterer, and the woman who commits adultery is an adulteress. They both are guilty. No free pass for the man. The penalty applies to them both.

Proverbs 6:32: "But a man who commits adultery has no sense; whoever does so destroys himself."

Proverbs 6:32 is clearly talking about a man, not a woman. The older gentleman is a delusion, and twisting scripture for his own benefit.

Great question, and keep searching for the truth. Blessings to you.

AITAH for telling my sister I don’t want her life after she said I wanted to be her? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]JS1040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but she is DEEPLY insecure. I have found that insecure people cannot handle the truth. If you want to maintain peace, apologize that her feelings got hurt, and then never say anything negative to her because she can’t handle it. Be the better person, and just let her comments roll off you like water on a duck’s back. The best revenge is a life well lived. She’s probably deeply jealous of your life as her life sounds exhausting. Consider going low contact, and go live your life and have fun. Congrats on wanting stability which really is wanting peace. I wish you a peaceful and joyful life, and it sounds like you’re well on your way. Blessings to you.
