you're assuming everyone else will see it that way. and he was talking about how it stands with God. a lot of people aren't concerned with that. i think that teaching is less about creating a new bright-line rule for the Pharisees and more about showing us how hopelessly lost we are next to a holy God. that people try to make religion out of the sermon on the mount misses the entire point, i think. having said that...avoid the situation. avoid lust if you can. avoid the temptation. it leads to heartache.
Well, since she tells you about it before she does it. It is not cheating. But it is better than spending time with someone who can't stand her lifestyle IMO. Sometimes you just have to keep looking until you can find the weirdo that works for you.
never cheated, never will! relationships without trust are time consuming and waste of money. I don't need that to accomplish my goals, I've met people who cheated and what they do is their business, but IMO, the relationship will never function properly....
What do you mean by cheating? Does Jimmy Carter-esque lusting-in-heart-after-another-woman count as cheating?
My wife told me I could have a girl friend if I wanted. If it was no strings attached occasional sex then it wouldn't be a big deal but why would I want another relationship that takes time and money away from my wife and kids?
You should count your blessing to have a wife who is open-minded and honest. You should hold tight on that all your life.
that's great but i am not christian. if you want to go around feeling guilty and shaming yourself for finding another woman attractive then that is your decision. this conversation from shadypink is a little beyond simple lusting since she has already had a 3-some with her bf and another girl, so bible quotes aren't very applicable.
There are lots of things I wanna address in this thread but unfortunately I have to leave right now...I'll get back to it later. One thing I do want to say is that ya'll are reading way too much into what i said about him having "fits of jealousy". Honestly, I'm not questioning my relationship at all. I do believe if he ever cheats on me, he will tell me. He's one of those brutally honest people, meaning he tells me things, even if I don't necessarily want to hear it. And he's a BAD liar. lol ok ill get back to this later..
lol his faithfulness is not the one in question! He's questioning mine. That wasn't even really meant to be part of the thread, just the reason why I was thinking about the topic. I know every "close to cheating" moment that he's had. We talk about girls all the time. I'm VERY secure.
Why Shouldn't he. .. if he talks her up enough maybe their is an outside chance you might say .. HEY BRING THEM OVER! Rocket River the Male mind is not that complicated *grin*
No joke bro. They've done legit sociological studies on this. Latin men are notorious "mujeryegos." I'm talkin 50+% figures. Less in some countries (Chile) but almost 70% in others (Argentina, Mexico). It's an epedemic!!!!
I know That is kind of the point Why should he cheat. . . . He seems to have a decent set up at home if that is your thing .. . which I would assume it is for him Rocket River
