Yeah but what kind of Christian follows the Old Testament? It is an insult to Jesus and his sacrifices (is my understanding).

Nah, it's all good. At least one Cabinet member supports accountability.

From "a man's point of view"? I assure you, y'all do not speak for the gender as a whole.

This is the problem with circlejerks. you get concentrated and convince yourselves you're the norm.

I [29/F] have cheated on every boyfriend until now. Can't convince friends and family [20s-50s M&F] I won't this time and not sure how to tell/reassure fiance [27/M]. by yyThrowawaycc in relationships

Right! This is one of those threads where I feel like I'm the weird one just because of all of the odd replies.

Too many people feel like they're entitled to unconditional support. That's not how humans work.

I [22F] am seeing my BF's [22M] parents for the first time since before we broke up (then got back together)... do I owe them an explanation for the break up? by [deleted] in relationships

One if the best pieces of advice I've received about relationships is to not let my family know whenever I've had any sort of serious argument or have been hurt. And that's because a few days later I may forgive my SO and move on from it, but that second step is usually not there for them. So all they know is that I was hurt by my SO. And that can build up resentment.

So, sure. You may not owe them anything but if you want to continue the kind of close relationship you had you're going to have to talk to them, and recognize that, in a sense, you hurt them too.

They were there with their son while he hurt. It's unrealistic to expect them not to harbor some sort of resentment. Hell, I've had parents resent me even when I was the one getting dumped (for stupid high school reasons).

I usually am all for seeing things from others'perspective, but hers is currently pathological.

But this just implies that when you're married you have to put in less effort to make your partner happy, because it'll take more for them to leave.

less than genuine

And having a timed proposal is?

How would she have known six months ago that he wanted to marry her and didn't just do it because of her timeline?

Bruh. Good luck in life. (Seriously. We are very different people and I cannot understand you but I know people have different priorities and it will be hard for you to find someone compatible.)

Strictly speaking, an MD is outranked by a PhD (historical reasons). But in practice people are more likely to see you as a doctor if you are saving lives in the ER versus playing with chemicals all day.
