Does it still count if I highlighted the 1st line and right click on search google for "I'd rather laugh with the sinners" ??

Never cared for his music when it 1st came out, so I never paid attention, and it got almost as much airtime as stairway to Cleveland ( which was the song for rest room breaks for the disc jockey it was so long, it replaced Iron Butterfly ).

Not that you will listen, BUT you need to get out that relationship. She obviously isn't the right girl for you if you already got that many worries/issues at one month. More likely than not, you think that you have feelings for this girl because she is a challenge/hard to get. Everyone wants what they cant have.. its life. BUT some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayer, and trust me on that one.

First of all, you are 24. Why on earth do you want to get married right now anyways? Are you done with college and in a steady career? OR just in a steady career to begin with? I know you are just speculating, but if you ever want to know how GREAT marriage is then ask two people who are married . Now on the other end of the spectrum, there are people who do have great marriages, but dont think its not work 24/7.

Two, she has been raised to live and believe a certain way. The chances of her changing the way that she acts is slim to 0, but that is just my opinion. Then again, anything possible, things may change for you as you get to know her more.

I think you need to find a girl with similar interest, and make a pass at her. As bad as this sounds, bars have PLENTY of girls that are DTF if you know what I mean, but wrap before you tap my friend . If you are really that lonely there you go, but defintely DO NOT EVER sacrifice your happiness or well being for some girl that you have only known for one month, and never change who you are. You can not teach an old dog new tricks, and you will eventually go back to your old ways and never hear the end of it.

Well there is my two cents.. poof.

I was just trying to weigh the pros and cons.
Pros: Your still waayy young and will have plenty of time to find miss "right"! I found mine 13 years ago, and we got married 4 1/2 years ago and at that point I was 43. I've been happy with her since the day we met and we see things eye to eye for the most part.

Cons: Her! You 2 don't really don't have much in common by the sound of it and that will only lead to disaster down the road and you really don't want to spend your life trying to "change" her into someone that will make you happy and someone you will get along with. I have to agree with most everyone who has sounded off in this thread and say end it. Or "run Forrest, rruunn"!!

I don't want to be the a-hole here but have you tried talking to her about these concerns? I think it's you who posts here with life problems quite a bit, sorry if it's not, but too many concerns on your part. Again, you seem to be worried about what others think too much. Level with her, tell her what you want or looking for, she can't dig that, move along. At least you're showing your cards and if your not the guy for her, she'll find her Ned Flanders somewhere! Don't let it go too long then all of a sudden have a problem.

Seriously...if you change who you are and aren't happy with that to create a relationship, at some point you will be unhappy. Same would go for her. Opposites attract but there are certain things that don't mesh.

Like my wife...we have a mixed marriage...she's a Sox fan and I am a Cubs fan. She knows she is wrong so we get through it.

I'm going to go against the general opinion of the thread a bit here:

1. If you claim to be saved, but your belief only extends to 'believing in God', then perhaps you need to re-evaluate if you're saved or not.

2. I respect her for not having to hang out in bars, drink, and do all the other stuff that people with low confidence have to do. Believe me, I did that all through college. Its simply a way to try to escape reality and being comfortable in your own skin. I admire her already.

3. Just because she's naive doesnt mean that she doesnt have a 'worldly' perspective. Being a Baptist, you should remember the lessons on how we're not to live for this world; we are to BE different.

It looks like you have found a keeper in my mind. She's not going to be the rock-star party girl that most 25 year old guys are after. BUT, she's the kind of girl that will want to marry once, have a family, and be dedicated to you. What more can you ask for? More than likely, you'll never have to worry about her cheating, neglecting her kids, or divorce. You're only a month into it...go slow, get to know her, and dont pressure her. Think of how much she'll want you once she realizes that you want her and not just her body.


One question remains: Does she have a sister??

this is very true, BUT there are also alot of girls that go to bars that arent DTF and just wanna get a beer or margarita with their girl friends and have a good time..thats the ones i would go after

and like AV said if you cant be yourself, you wont ever be happy..i think i would stick around a little longer and see if it gets any better, then if it doesnt give her the boot

Ask yourself. Do you want quanity or quality? Do you want a girl that puts out and has? Or one with real values that don't put out and is quality?
You can't have both. A good woman is a hard find. Think about this and what you want from her. Then decide.

Yep those highly religious people are fine upstanding people.
Just ask the Catholic priests about it .............
