Last week I told you I was getting a divorce. I am fine with this. Why can’t you be fine with it? Mom you really do not need to offer to fly me out to see my husband every day. Its over. O-V-E-R. This really is not a hard concept. I am really sorry that it bothers you. I really am. Last time I checked ,however, you stopped raising me years ago. You cannot make decisions for me anymore.
I would really appreciate it if you would stop bitching at me about my bad attitude about the whole situation. I am not going to pretend I am sorry that he is leaving when I am not. If that offends your notion of what proper woman should be doing, then maybe you should stay away from me.
And Fucking hell, if you tell me one more time that I will be a whore if I date again I will have to shake you till your weave falls out. Guess what Mom! My life is not over with Divorce, and its not going to be, just because you think thats what I should be doing.
Thanks again for bringing me into this world without taking me back out, but damn it all the hell Mom you really need to calm down. Its almost like you are taking my divorce personally. There is nothing you can do to bring us back together, Don’t yell at me when I tell you the truth!
I love you and your weave dearly, but seriously mom, get a fucking grip.
Love you daughter,
Deadly nightlight
P.s- leaving me information about why I am going to hell for getting a divorce with out adultery is not helping any either
Eh, she IS taking your divorce personally, for whatever reason. She feels like a failure as a mother, if she “couldn’t teach her daughter better than that”, etc.
Just ignore her issues and get on with your life, is my advice. She’ll eventually get used to the idea that her daughter can be divorced and still be a Nice Person.
And, FWIW, even Christians can get divorces for non-adulterous reasons and still be Christians, IMO.
Duck says “And, FWIW, even Christians can get divorces for non-adulterous reasons and still be Christians, IMO.”
I have seen lots of people say “You know Christians can get divorced”; or “Christians can be pro-choice”. I just dont understand statements like that at all. I believe, by far, the majority of the people in the Western World are Christians. When the divorce rate is so high, of course, Christians get divorces; of course, Christians chose abortions. Is there someother religion that exists out there which is more popular than Christianity (and which I dont know of) and responsible for the high rate of divorces?
I just dont understand. (And when things dont make sense, ramesh gets restless)
from Matthew, chapter five, verses 31-32, as attributed to Jesus himself
This admonition is repeated in Matt 19:9, Mark 10:11-12, and Luke 16:18.
So, for people who take the Bible to be literally the word of God, then there is a clear prohibition against Divorce and remarry. But there is a whole debate to be had on whether that should mean anything to the rest of us.
Not until you find a new lover, Deadly Nightlight. Your mother is right, you must remain celibate for the rest of your life if you are to avoid being an adulteress.
But we won’t hold being a bit skanky against you here. In fact, some of us hold that as a positive. And there are quite of few of us with besetting sins here.
