Thought I already posted on this, but can't find it and haven't got a message that I've been banned yet... I think I might possibly be in an LDR right now maybe. There about a 40-70% chance that I am. Close distance relationship make it easy to neglect certain problems that would tear an LDR...

You're absolutely right! Good insight :-)

Sex is never good if it's at odds with your deeply held moral convictions.

Is this based off experience or assumption?

One thing you need to remember about your first crush is that it's your first crush. That feeling that you've never felt this way before is because you've actually never felt this way before. What I'm trying to say is that you don't have a good perspective on how realistic this relationship is...

If you told her how you feel then she knows how you feel. Repeating that to her is an insult to her intelligence. Remember that old adage, "If you love someone, set them free. If they come back, it was meant to be." If she changes her mind, she'll let you know without prompting. Badgering her is...

IMPORTANT: IF YOU ARE FEELING SUICIDAL, CALL 1-800-SUICIDE My heart goes out to you. I am very close to a person with bipolar disorder, and I know it's very tough for her. Mental illness is as real of an illness as diabetes. It is caused by an unbalance with chemicals in your brain. Like any...

Not sure what you mean by that. Hoping it isn't derailment...

I was thinking the same thing! Is it right with God? Is it right with her? Yes? Then go ye forth, and make like married folk! Don't let the government dictate your private religious life.

First sincerely try to be her friend. Then ask her out. Further Explanation In the highly like event that she isn't already head over heels for you (sorry dude), you will seem creepy for asking her out. Please strive as much as possible to reduce the chances of you appearing creepy. It would...

Not sure how welcome sexual orientation talk is, but you sound a bit Gray A to me. Gray A is a term for people who are almost asexual but not quite. It includes people who are hyposexual and people who are sexual but aromantic. I think the second might apply to you based on what you said about...

I was well-versed in apologetics when I was a Christian. I also continue to read the Bible often. My trouble was not with semantic differences. The event I read about had accounts by supposed eye-witnesses, but it seemed to me that each account was missing important events the other accounts...

I'm not sure about Christian relationships specifically, but for relationships in general, it's good practice to have solid communication. Both of you need to be adept at listening when you need to listen and voicing your opinion when you need to speak. You will not be happy if one person...

Can't believe I didn't mention the Texas or family thing. Concerning Texas, moving to a new place can be difficult. Give it some time to see if you get used to it. Ask the locals what they do for fun. You might meet a new friend or get a new hobby. If you still hate if after a while, remember...

I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. It's definitely difficult to deal with depression. My heart goes out to you. Don't change your beliefs about anything based on just emotion. Emotions are temporary. I too suffer with depression, I even get suicidal at times. But it's never lasted. It always...

I can't stand it when people say you need to have sex before you know you're compatible. I have had bad sex and good sex, and the main difference was communication. When we talked beforehand and during about what we wanted and what we didn't, we got a better sense of how compatible we were. I...

Don't know what they believe, but if it's true it will stand up to intense questioning and have lots of proof. Think critically, and no one will deceive you.

I did spend some time trying to find reconciliation online and with my study Bible. I also prayed on the issue. I couldn't find anything I thought was a satisfactory explanation. After I'd been an atheist for a while, I found more passages that I just couldn't square with each other. I thought...

First of all, just to clarify one thing, secular =/= anti-Christian. It just means that no religion is supported or opposed. I think college is a great way to gain knowledge. As long as you're not against learning, you'll do fine in college. If what you believe is really true, it will hold and...

They don't. That's a myth. Firstly, women have physical needs too. This is an issue for them just as much as it is an issue for guys. Lemme ask you a similar question: Would you rather be married or have a spouse? I'm assuming you mean finding someone to marry, in which case I have turned...
