CarnalK:
I’d say good riddance to bad baggage. She can’t be all that bright, seeing as how she posts/writes almost the exact same way sober as you posted in this drunken OP.
What was her Doper name again, btw? And I hope this thread doesn’t violate some “dragging in personal shit between Dopers” rule just because she posted here a couple of times.
How do we know how she posts? She hasn’t posted lately…or are you referring to posts you read from a while ago?
Nava:
10:14, rather.
Underline mine.
How is breaking her vows to you making her better than staying to fulfill them? It is certainly not making you any better, rather taking away a great reason for you to be a better man, taking away something that has by your own recounting made you a better man. And it makes you even more bitter against churches like hers than you were!
If St Monica had left her unbelieving husband, we wouldn’t have had a St Augustine.
Speak with her pastor, if you can stand the guy, because while it is possible that her church is trying to pull her away from you, it is also possible that her pastor doesn’t know a thing about this and will be willing (and able) to help you. I’ve known a number of people who were in born-again churches in which actually the least radical/Jesus-crazy of the people there happened to be the pastor.
+1000. Any Christian church that would tell her to leave is a million percent wrong.
Not that I hold him in any less contempt, but her minister says this was not his idea and he thinks it’s a bad one.

I’m so sad to hear about this Skald . I hope that things work out for what is truly best for you.

Maybe he can talk to her?
I am so sorry Skald. Reading your posts it is obvious how committed and in love you are.
I hope that it all works out for the best whatever way it goes. My thoughts are with you.
I have to say, when I saw your OP devoid of capitalization, I knew it had to be bad. Shit, man. That’s a whole lot to get dumped on, and I hope you can work it out.
And a hangover certainly can last all day, though I’ve never had the headache itself do that- just the cotton-ball-head feeling, and a strong aversion to alcohol for the next forty-eight hours.
