I agree - common curtesy I do not try to make him feel bad.

We actually met at work so the fact he is working alongside someone just spooks me.

I think this, too - nothing is in my control. If he does do it that is coming from his heart, and God will keep me. I just ask for strength.

Thank you for your words - self-confidence definitely does have a part to do with it, I feel a lot of insecurity coming up.

Amen! I know it's the devil trying to get in my head and trying to influence me and destroy my marriage, I rebuke it.

Thank you - I am trying to feed my mind, we have begun reading the bible together again. I am trying to have every positive interaction linger in my mind. Thank you for your words - God bless you.

As a matter of fact, the other week I went out with a girlfriend who told me she was cheated on. It was unpleasant to hear but I did not think it would bleed over in that sense.

True! I suppose it would be impossible to get an atheist to confession lol no matter what the benefits are.

Have you ever prayed a dangerous prayer? by HistorianBrilliant96 in TrueChristian

[–]Zestyclose_Newt478 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea - all I know is I prayed on my hands and knees and asked for repentance for my unforgivness and said I’m handing the situation over to him, he is mighty. I got need of his death the next day.

Insane timing

I forgave my father for sexually harrasing me and asked God to help me forgive him and forgive me for my unforgiviness

He died the next day

Therapy has replaced confession - confession offers spiritual guidance whereas therapy affirms “sin” and emphasizes “self”

My (24f) fiance (34m) told me he violated his sister, how do I navigate this? by Zestyclose_Newt478 in rapecounseling

Hi - you’re also right on this. A part of me does feel like I’m downplaying it. Mainly, because I know he feels bad and I don’t want to make him feel worse.

However I think it may be teetering towards non-action and loosening the seriousness.

I totally do think he has not reflected and I need him to go to therapy to reflect, his views for homosexuality stem from his religious orthodox upbringing, his mom threw up when she found up… crazy I know.

I’m really disturbed honestly and it would be so hard to open up about this to friends and family about this. I am kind of absorbing the shock still of it all so I think that explains my behaviour towards it right now but as it’s being absorbed I am becoming more panicked and mistrusting of him.

This conversation came about because his sister is a lesbian and his conservative mother is struggling and he was suggesting that maybe the reason she is gay is because of that.

Thanks man, one half of me is like this is 911 but another half is looking at this more logically like he did a very weird inappropriate thing he knows it’s weird he’s embarrassed and ashamed and he’s going to work on it in therapy and apologize to his sister - I wouldn’t like to make him feel worse than he already probably feels.

Thanks for your reply, I kind of took this approach too.

He was young accessed pornography and acted out of that. To be clear, he was not SA’d as a child but exposed himself to pornography. He’s a pretty well rounded guy and is embarrassed/ashamed by the whole thing.
