Just like I keep telling myself I won’t post to any more gun threads either (and yet, I still do for some dumb-ass reason…) I also, respectfully, disagree strongly with some of your personal life issues you have posted here, but that’s neither here nor there. I think you are an intelligent, well-spoken person who obviously can defend himself very well. You certainly don’t need this lesbian judging you and your life. So I bid you peace. So why did I even post my wise-ass comment in the first place? Because I was chiding myself publicly, that’s all. Not chiding you. Una ---

Is it just based on your religious beliefs, or is there something more to it? Oops, I didn’t check out this thread for a couple of days, and somebody asked me a question. Mainly, the reason I’m miserable by having SSA is, it means I will probably never have a normal, hetero relationship with an LDS woman whom I could marry in the temple. This means I’ll never have kids in this life and will have to be celibate or risk losing my LDS membership (unless I find another “Rose” who IS willing to marry in the temple). It also means I will never fit into LDS society. “Fitting in” has always been important to me to some extent. All of these things add up to one main thing: I can never be happy being immoral. ---
