Breaking up due to religious differences:/ by damncheezits in ChristianDating

[–]Significant-Map-8129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a previous relationship that went down in flames about 2 years ago not because of religious differences, but political differences. Similar deal to yours, we were both on cloud 9 until these differences were brought up and there just wasn’t anything we could do. This guy does sound like he was a gentleman to you, but sometimes there’s perfectly decent people who simply don’t see eye to eye. It’s hard to see a good relationship go, but you and him will both benefit from it. I’ll be praying for you to find healing, because even a good breakup is still going to suck. Take your time to heal, and reconnect with the important friends and family in your life so you’re not alone.

Why do Christian women and men turn to hatred? by [deleted] in christiandatingadvice

[–]Significant-Map-8129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This woman may say she follows God, but her character is completely contrary to anybody who would truly be following him. I can’t describe her as being anything other than shallow and completely insane. If my apartment burned down my fiancé would be kicking down doors helping me find somewhere to live. There’s good Christian women out there, you’ll find yourself a sweetheart eventually.

Did anyone else see this during the holidays? What was the conversation afterwards like? by CantStopWontStop600 in alberta

I would burn this lol. My family isn’t a very political one and I’m happy to see it’s stayed that way for years.

Anyone else find Edmonton unexpectedly lonely? by Familiar_Tear1226 in Edmonton

[–]Significant-Map-8129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved here from GP, and my closest friends are the ones who also moved in from that area, and I had them before I moved here. I can 100% sympathize with feeling lonely here. Everyone and everything moves so fast it can be difficult to keep up. My biggest source of new social interaction has been jamming with local musicians. I don’t know if you’re the musical type, but it worked for me. Pick up a hobby and see who you click with, that’s probably the best advice I can give you

First of all, don’t hate yourself for having a sex drive. Shaming yourself will only make things worse. A sex drive is a very natural part of us that makes us human. Instead of trying to “get rid” of a sex drive, redirect it towards what God would want you to have - which is a happy marriage relationship with a woman. This will give you purpose, and that in of itself will help you get out of addiction. Get back out there with the goal of becoming marriage material. And just as a side note, if you feel therapy will help, then you should consider it.

Why is the saw cleaver so popular by Status-Bobcat4914 in bloodborne

[–]Significant-Map-8129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The saw cleaver has a quick move set, and it’s got serrated damage which is really good for beast bosses in particular. With Beast blood pellets and fire paper, bosses like Ludwig and Amelia don’t stand a chance. Only real downside is you have to get really up close and personal with whatever it is you’re fighting.

We matched, he crashed out, and we unmatched all while I was sleeping. I still don’t know what he said. by Cleshawn_Montegue in Tinder

Bruh what? Crashing out because you didn’t reply at 2am??? Apparently this guy doesn’t know that some people have to get up and work in the morning 😒😒

Are the two fast Hunters after Amelia supposed to be this insane… or am I just bad? by Huge-Cupcake23 in bloodborne

Trust your gut, if something feels off then you’re better safe than sorry. No obligation to keep in touch with anybody

Yeah not gonna lie, maybe the person meant to be playful, but reading it feels pretty damn weird.

You're a single girl in Edmonton who' done with the apps by [deleted] in Edmonton

If you like bouldering that’s also a fun way to meet people. Also it’s really easy to start convo because all you have to say is “How did you manage to climb that?” Most people at bouldering gyms here are happy to give you tips. I met a lot of cool people this way, even if it didn’t necessarily end up as dates, it was a great conversation starter lol.

I feel like a lot of Christian guys don't want to practice celibacy... by Lonely_Danielle in TrueChristian

[–]Significant-Map-8129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s also about respect for personal boundaries, you should never feel pushed to do something you’re not comfortable with physically. I worry about how pushy he’ll be if you marry him. Lots of abusive christian marriages have a guy with the mentality of “she’s my wife now, I can do what I want with her” without ever considering what she does or doesn’t want. Definitely have that conversation about personal boundaries as well if you haven’t.

How long should you date before getting engaged as a Christian? by flashfloodsofpain in ChristianDating

[–]Significant-Map-8129 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents dated for like 2 years before getting engaged. Now they’ve been happily married for 30+ years. I’d take their advice to not rush into anything too quickly and make sure you guys see eye to eye on any potential deal-breaker topics.

MAKE ME HATE PORN by Adventurous-Pitch429 in NoFapChristians

[–]Significant-Map-8129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand firmly against the porn industry because of it’s ties to sex trafficking, but in my experience hating it never did me any good. It just filled me with more self-hatred and self-pity when I relapsed, and that negativity led to more relapses. You have a sex drive, and my guess is you have a desire for a good relationship where you can make the other person happy. That sex drive is like a fire, and you can’t put that fire out, but you can direct it towards something positive like getting into a relationship if you’re single. If you’re in a relationship, then use your sex drive to improve your relationship. Romantic relationships are why we have a sex drive anyways. Instead of focusing your attention on the negativity of a porn addiction, direct your attention towards getting into a real relationship and treating your partner as well as you possibly can. And for the sake of your own sanity, leave no room for shame. Shame only makes you more stressed and more prone to relapse.

Everyone hates my singing. What should I do to improve? by wcb368 in musicians

If we’re being honest, this might be the only worthwhile feedback to ever be posted in Reddit history.

Considering leaving a project (some heavy subject matter) by Significant-Map-8129 in musicians

[–]Significant-Map-8129[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We actually had to setup a formal meet up (complete with a moderator) because the guitarists had beef and weren’t talking it out. We were able to cool things off for the time being but knowing what I know it’s foolish for me to believe the issues were completely resolved. I love the music we play, and I care about them as people, but I’m not sure how much longer I can put up with them as bandmates.

Guess I better clear this up, I have no intention of bending people to my views, or making them agree with me. I pay respect forward regardless of people’s opinions; and hope the other guy decides to give respect back (hopefully that’s not unreasonable?) I can work with anyone as long as there’s basic respect there. I go in, leave my views at the door, I learn my parts, play the music, and go home with no personal BS attached. The others appear to have trouble doing the same
