| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 3:54:19 PM | OP You know God is in all of us. We all have a little piece of him. The best way to deal with a woman that feels her religion is to be God for her when you are making love. God Loves us all and all of that garbage about morality comes from long ago with men trying to control the power of sex and sexuality. I mean thousands of years of religions and dictators forcing men and women to feel guilty about the natural urges that God gave them. Just let God flow through you. Believe me He doesnt want your woman and He wants you to be happy. He gave us all free will so you have a choice. If a woman is seeking God and has enough Love for you to go to bed with you then let God flow through you for her. You wont lose anything but when she begins to realize what you are doing she will Love you forever. It might even improve your Love making and your enjoyment of the act. So try it. Use your mind and bring him to the room and just let Him flow. The Creator designed our bodies with Love and foresight and the only problems that we have with enjoying them are created by man and our own minds. Good Luck with your life, Bob | |

you're "non-religious" but date to "religious" women ? and then you complain when they freak out ?
Tell me about it! Everyone knows it's completely impossible to have a strong relationship with someone whose every belief is not identical to yours, right?

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:12:53 PM | That happened to me once. Sortof. She wasn't religious till sex broke out and she started screaming "oh God!" But joking aside, she did feel guilty. Not sure what she felt the guiltiest about. The sex part, taking his name in vain during it. or enjoying it so damn much.
But bottom line, the real reason was we just got intimate way too soon.
It really freaked her out that she could be that attracted to a guy and loose control like that. I'm not typing that to brag. She was single a long while and hadn't had sex in a very long while.... so just sortof lost it. I thought that meant she liked me. So I was really crushed when she decided to get back into church and not date me. I was too much a badboy sinner and way too much temptation to her. Dammit!
If I would've waited longer until we did the deed, things may have been different. Shame too, cus I really liked her. Oh well. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:17:45 PM | I guess Jesus is doin' something right.
So many people beat themselves up over sin. It depends on the strength of their convictions, which, if they are acting in one way then regretting it later, they can't be that strong. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:25:58 PM | I post this and am fully prepared for criticism. Email it if you really want me to respond to it. I am a saved woman and will try to explain why guilt comes into the picture.
The core of sin is disobedience to God’s word. A saved person has an extra consciousness called the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit immediately guides the heart towards the right path. When you realize that you’re not on a path towards greater intimacy with God it causes guilt. Guilt should never be stored. Acknowledge it, correct it, and more on. Store guilt and you've got a serious problem.
As a saved person I have a duty to be acceptable to God in my thoughts and actions. When it comes to dating, before even falling in love, I have a laundry list of responsibility. I must love my date as I love myself. This means I must respect them. I’m almost in a fiduciary position over their soul. It’s my responsibility to ensure they are no worse for having met me.
Jesus is all about encouraging healthy relationships. He’s not against sex or love. He’s against relationships that destroy and discourage.
I know I have actually ended relationships because I was more interested in lust and less interested in a Christ-like relationship. God clearly tells me that I’m to leave lust, sexual immorality, fornication, adultery, fill in the blank behind. It’s easy to imagine that a kiss, a touch, an embrace would be acceptable. Sure they will be. In an intimate, marital relationship where any passion that was ignited could be thoroughly addressed. Not in a premarital relationship without God’s blessing. If God would not rejoice with me, I know I’ve disappointed Him.
I consider my past sins in relationships and realize that every time I compromised and made a decision contrary to my faith it ended. My sin caused me pain and guilt. My sin separated me from God’s presence. And ultimately if the process is wrong, the end will never be just.
So have you ever considered visiting a few churches/meetings/watch nights to see what types of issues are discussed? If you find a church filled with Christ and not dogma, I think you may be surprised at why you’re girlfriends think the way they do. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:32:36 PM | hi...^^^^^^ this is an excellent post, I could not have said this so well but it resonated with Gods Spirit in me, ty.....
OP this situation is no different than someone who is quitting smoking or trying to eat right or someone who is trying not to drink... we know what is good for us but sometimes we fail... perhaps sex outside of marriage is that persons strongest temptation, one that they will struggle with for a long time.. they are not odd/wrong for seeking their greatest good as THEY see it nor should they be put down or doubted when they fail... OP, if you like them maybe you may want to try to honor their convictions, stand beside them and see if the relationship grows without sex... if you can not do it then take half the blame for it ending...glass houses and throwing stones and all that.... blessings for happiness | |

I am trying to be respectful of your beliefs, but why would you put yourself into a position ie: be on a dating site, where you might meet someone and feel lust etc... and then have to end it? Simply, if your post is how you feel, why are you here,? There are religious sites that would be better suited to your beliefs. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:39:26 PM | | Its best to stick with like minded individuals so one value doesnt interfere with the other. Religious people who believe sex w/o marrage is a sin should date the same so its not an issue. If you date someone who is religious keep your mind off sex, cause you will burn that bridge. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 4:53:31 PM | Luiza6, I appreciate your question. I would like to mention that their is never a guarantee of someone's heart. There is no promise of an angel on a Christian site. Nor is there a guarantee of a devil here.
I enjoy this site. I have met several people from this site. Not all of them proclaimed to be Christian. I've never been on a POF date that ended up in a compromising position. And most importantly, the men I've met would never have tried it. Many of the dates are continuing friends.
Why would you assume that meeting a Christian would eliminate lust? All saved sinners are still sinners that make mistakes. The saved label means that you are a work in progress. You are learning to be more Christ-like and thankful for every trial. When I learn from a trial, I put it behind me. If I find a relationship going south, I do what's needed to correct it. If I can’t correct it, I pray until I find an answer. Sometimes that answer has been to leave the relationship rather than compromise my faith.
You assume that Christian means perfect and that's by no means the case. I hope this helps you. If not email me. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 5:09:06 PM | OP-
Uh, I f they were that into 'God', then they wouldn't have given you sex in the first place. Also, could've just asked for forgiveness and slowed things down. I dunno sounds like excuses to me. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 5:40:08 PM | That's why you should date pagans. Dionysus doesn't care if pagans have sex out of wedlock, and neither do Inanna, Aphrodite, and other pagan deities.
You have to understand about SOME Christians--sex outside of marriage IS a sin. Period. Some rationalize having sex before marriage by thinking/planning to marry the person with whom she/he is having sex. However, I see a shift in the thinking of some Christians toward adultery being a sin but fornication isn't.
This is stuffed into the heads of people born into Christian families--it was in mine, but it just didn't take too well with me.
Guilt rules religion: it makes people easier to control. Control a person's sex life, you control just about the whole life. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 5:40:53 PM | You assume that Christian means perfect and that's by no means the case.
No, I certainly don't assume Christian means perfect, not even a thought that enters my mind. Quite the contrary!
I just got the impression you put yourself into a compromising situation so you could then prove something by being a martyr, basically like the women the OP was talking about.
I just felt you may need to meet like individuals that would feel it was a sin to tempt you, so therefore wouldn't if they respected you... hence a site more appropriate than POF... | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 5:43:32 PM | lol - Jesus stealing your women, huh? Just change your profile to state NO RELIGION. If this matters to any women you contact it will be a deal-breaker and it's a no-go.
If all fails, bring it up when you initiate contact with one another. Should be a no-brainer. | |

I find the word martyr inappropriate for both the OP situation & summary of my post. Dating relationships end everyday. One is hardly a martyr for finding someone incompatible.
No one sets out to find a compromising situation. But life is life. Regardless of initial intentions, situations will arise. I simply mention that Christ gives answers to this.
I wish you blessings in your search! | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 7:30:43 PM | | If you mean what do you do after the fact, don't. That is, don't mess with their religion. You could have asked subsequent dates about their religious beliefs before getting involved intimately, after that first experience. As necessary, recount what happened, how it left you feeling etc.. which will give them food for thought, since you have first-hand insight into it. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/2/2009 7:59:24 PM | I'm not a religious scholar, nor do I play one on message boards, but back when I use to read the Bible I never saw a part where one errs and is forgiven, then does the same thing over & over again and gets forgiven over & over again. Once you repent, understand your sin, you aren't suppose to do it again. I mean really, if there was a god who made all these rules, do you think this god is stupid or easily fooled?
You don't keep on dating men, screwing them, then oh gosh, I shouldn't have done that and repent for the 100th time. Give it up, you believe it and follow it or you don't really believe the religion you profess. Being a good moral person is not that hard for someone who actually believed in such. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/3/2009 1:42:44 AM | Jesus is stealing your girlfriends??? Jesus who ????
I hope he is a good looking, macho Mexicano. I would be willing to be stealed too..  | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/3/2009 2:10:22 AM | OP , move out of the bible belt and date a nice jewish girl. We don't believe in Jesus:)
Of course ,you don't believe in Jesus (JEW) because he was your great great great cousin,lol. Joking \
I hope girlfriend that you believe "Jesus saves".. | |
|
| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/3/2009 3:38:42 AM | You need to get a new lawn care service, or stop dating chick that like hispanic guys. LOL
If you think having a girlfriend break up with you because of God, I had a wife leave me because of God. She changed religions and since we weren't married in that church we weren't really married, and since I didn't want to join her cult it was by by. God does seem to get a lot of women, the bigger deal a woman makes about their religion the faster I get away from her. I do believe in God, I just might not believe in yours. | |

| Jesus is stealing my girlfriends! Posted: 11/3/2009 8:20:43 AM | | Let Jesus have them, IMO - I won't compete. I'm not interested in a woman who wants a MFM threesome with Jesus and insists that Jesus always cums first. | |
