Something I've noticed lately

[Shibby]

What? That I'm Arrogant or something? Or fake?

I wouldn't say fake at all... arrogance?... You have a lot of theoretical knowledge, but haven't had the real life time to get the practical.

[NewbieChris]

Just curious - do you want to have a partner when married who has also waited ? And what would be the reasoning behind either way, her being a virgin or not.

Never really thought about it. Always thought sex should be between people who care about each other, so probably wouldn't want someone with a lot of partners. Don't see that as a limiting factor completely.

Well, for what it's worth - if you are putting this kinda effort into saving yourself for marriage - it might be worth giving that some thought, girls are no different than guys, they want that shit like crazy. I know you know this - but seriously for your relationships sake, why get burned down the road bro?

I guess, but I don't understand why you guys feel that way. I've been through this before, but I may never have had the young rebelious time, or serious financial concerns...but I've been to Africa to build homes for people displaced by the internal in Nigeria. I went to louisana to rebuild after Katrina with a youth church group. I've worked at non-profits for years in all different socioeconomic situations.

I may not have personal experiences relating to many faith/life events, but i've definately had the opportunity to see and experience a lot of things that influenced me. I

when I said I don't think you understand me, it's that the reasoning behnd not having sex isn't that god commanded us to, it's that I made the promise.

[Bouncer]

isn't that god commanded us to, it's that I made the promise.

why did you make the promise? what is the thought process behind it.

Seeing the hardships and living are not the same and I think you know that. It's also not just knowing how to handle them, it's the perspective it gives you about life.

You are right that I don't understand your promise you made to yourself and I probably never will. I also think I won't understand that part of you because I know it's based of an illusion you have created for yourself about life. I don't mean that to sound superior or anything, it just leads into the point I made about theoretical versus practical.

[FitnessBrat]

Why would you ever risk marrying someone you haven't even slept with? That's a recipe for disaster imo.

No kidding, that's a serious issue....

[NewbieChris]

why did you make the promise? what is the thought process behind it.

For my sister primarily. For about the past 8 years, my parents got divored in 03 (Dad avoided home for about a year before that), she hasn't had as steady a fatherly influence. I don't know how it happened, but the younger you are in my family, generally, the more conservative views you have about sex and love, et all. Things just happened that way and she wanted to be a virgin till marriage. Told her I would go through it with her. Favorite person in the world, thats someone I really don't wanna let down.

I don't feel its fair to call it an illusion. Yea, I was insecure about my body/sexual talent, but I have coping mechanisms that aren't building a wall around it and ignoring it. :dunno:

------

As far as life hardship, telling someone that has much experience coaching people, specifically kids, through really tough situations that he or she doesn't understand is someone condescending on your part. I wouldn't be worth shit if I didn't get through to them, IMO. If don't think I could get through to them if I didn't have some sort of idea how to talk to them and how it is affecting them.

You and AOW are completely correct in this respect.

LOL, dont see that as all too possible. Its her life if she wants to risk getting preggo and missing out on college and Columbia that shes dying to go to...whatever.

She did slow things down with him and backed off. She has crew training, urg training, lifting, SAT prep, and church crap like that. Shes a crazy over achiever.

[Greek@Peak]

Lifting increases test levels; especially squats bro...I'm sure all the men are loving you dearly:hibb:

What rep range for squats will increase the test levels?
What about leg press machine?

[DS-COUSIN]

I'm gonna be fucking bitches and hoes like a mad man. lol

Don't you mean fucking bros and dudes...LMAO! :rofl:


my bad, I couldn't help that one.
