[QUOTE="Michael0134567"][QUOTE="Fightingfan"][QUOTE="Michael0134567"] Girls have mouths. Since when? I don't know. I just don't want her to talk though.
[QUOTE="mindstorm"]I am single but I do not know anyone I'd actually desire to date.Iszdope
Don't fret, you'll desire one day.
INDULGE.
Oh I have not always been single. At one time I was saving up to buy an engagement ring for a girl. However, things did not work out and I haven't been in too much of a rush since (I have been on a number of dates, just nothing serious).

Did you desire her?
I desired her to such an extent that I loved her more than I loved Jesus. Her happiness meant more to me than pleasing the God I claimed to have loved. For this reason, I am exceedingly glad that we ended our relationship (as was/is she).

Are you two still friends?
Very much so. However, I tend to not be intentional with contact with her as she is now happily married with a child, and I have absolutely no intention of causing the remotest hint of strain upon their relationship. He's a good guy who loves her, loves their child, and loves Jesus. As such, I couldn't be happier for her (and I mean that). He's a youth pastor, she's training to become a counselor, and they are planning to become foreign missionaries. They've got things far more on track than me and her ever did. I loved her and she brought me much joy. However, our relationship was not honoring the God we both call Lord and our priorities were off track.

No and it is whatever. Finding a relationship is the easier part, maintaining one is the hard part. You find this out pretty easily after the first few weeks or months of actually having one.

Yes. For now I am content with it, but I do hope that it won't be a constant in my life in the future. I worry sometimes. I am pretty undesirable.t3hrubikscube
Yes, yes I am. Mostly because I'm bipolar so it's very difficult to maintain any type of relationship whatsoever, as any that I form when I'm feeling good is eventually destroyed when I hit my low. I'm sure people think I'm a bit psychotic, and girls don't seem to dig on this.

Isn't that like a Jedi losing their lightsaber?
At this point in my life I was a lot more self-righteous, had little understanding of my need for God's grace, and despite the fact that I was in school studying to become a pastor, I am not sure I was what is to be called a "born-again Christian." I accepted Christianity as true before this time. However, the gospel had not changed me until after the break up.

I understand your motive in ending your relationship because you felt you loved her more than you loved Jesus, but how can you ultimately determine it won't happen again in future, and potentially, while you're in a more serious relationship? You cannot help the way you feel, and if it were to occur again, would you make the same decision if you were in a more long-term relationship with a woman or if you had children? Hypothetical of coarse. :P
