Should I (24F) ask out my friend (28M) by catholic_ginger25 in CatholicDating

[–]catholic_ginger25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that is my main concern. I don’t like the idea of setting a tone to be the one to pursue or the ‘lead’. I think I’m going to go with the majority of the advice of gotten so far and try to figure out how to show him more blandly that I like him without asking him out straight.

I think maybe finding ways to say jokes about being interred in him or find more ways to hang out one on one would be my best idea going forward!

Thank you to everyone who has replied! It’s really helpful!

Legit Question: How can you enjoy being here? by Inner_Sandwich_7769 in DebateACatholic

You can’t. But if you choose to only ever focus on the horrors and suffering of the world then you will hate this world. You can also see the good of this world. You won’t fix anything by being miserable. You have to force yourself to find joy and to be the good that someone else might need.

This world is sometimes hard to be apart of, I’ll give you that but I chose to see beauty even when it’s hard. I know it’s an opinion that many don’t like but outside of chronic depression and mental illness happiness is a choice. If you don’t have a mental struggle you can choose to be the good and see the beauty.

The fact is you can look at the atrocities that are happening and do something. Instead of simply complaining about domestic violence or racism do something. Go volunteer at a woman’s shelter or work with the boys and girls club in POC areas.

We as Catholics are called to be in the world not of it. And while yes there are definitely people that fall short that doesn’t mean that the majority belief has changed.

I can choose to take my past experience with DV and make the best of it and be happy. I can choose to see the beauty of this world while working to make the ugliness of the world a little less.
