I read the thread and you're embarassing yourself. Thanks!


- Actually that was too harsh. Sorry. You're not embarassing yourself. You just aren't proving your point, and your attempts to prove your point are just taking you farther and farther away from succeeding.

He meant other people breaking out of their preference by dating you.

Wow, catty.

So Valkyrie and I already laid this to rest. So you're really just stirring the pot. Everyone embarasses themselves occasionally on message boards.
It's not the big of a deal. :rolleyes:

But you're just.. well being catty would be the best description imo

Yeah . . . if that's what you got out of my post, then I can better understand where the problems in this thread are born. I clearly meant the exact opposite.

Dude who is 21 and a virgin? Probably fine UNLESS he is one of the True Love Waits people who looks with disdain on people who didn't wait. When you talked about your "Christian values" by waiting, that seems to be implying that people who don't wait don't have Christian values. I'm not cool with that.

No drugs? That's fine and I'd say most girls prefer it.

No drinking? Fine ONLY IF you are okay with still going to bars, me drinking, keeping beer in the house, etc. I have a great friend at school who is a Mormon and he comes to bars with us all the time and doesn't drink. That's cool. What's not cool is people who don't drink and harp on others for going to bars or imbibing.

I take this to mean that he is *not* okay with dating a woman who drinks. I mean, he might try to appear to be okay with it at first, but after a while, the "compassionate nagging" will start: Drinking has negative effects on you. It's unattractive when you drink. You should stop. If you don't, I'll pray for you. I'll pray that you don't mess up your life too much by drinking.

I have to agree on this one.

That's like someone saying..."I'm going to stop cursing" and another person being turned off because they curse and believe that they are now incompatible. That doesn't make since to me. We are all different and there for do different things.

Homeboy, did you know you can drink without getting drunk? Unless you are a Mormon or a member of another religion that frowns on drinking, there is nothing wrong with a glass of wine with dinner, or knocking back a few during the Hometown Team game.

I don't get it dude, if you don't want to have sex with them, then why do you care if they think you are lame?

Based on his statements, I have to agree as well.

Maybe he's Baha'i.

I can't even imagine how someone could claim that drinking is "just a really unattractive look for her when she does it." I mean, sitting at a bar drinking a pint of beer looks MUCH worse than sitting at a bar drinking a coke. Right?

I wonder if he's only experience the people who drink to get trashed. If so, he's clearly hanging out with the wrong crowd.

Hmmmm...what's wrong with getting trashed every now and then? Just because it isn't your cup of tea, doesn't mean it's wrong.

True, but maybe he's around people who only get trashed everytime that they drink. I mean, otherwise he should know that its possible to drink and stay sober or only get drunk from time to time. Ya know?
