Are you being sarcastic here or just attaching this too far up your ass?

Neither. You've jumped in several times saying what you don't like, not about the topic, but about the way the topic's being discussed. And I'm asking for your suggestions on what other sites are good resources since you don't like the ones being used. I'm not saying I'll use them, but I'm open to new ideas.

Surely you haven't been reading this thread.

And you can't have sex living apart ?


I live with my fiance, and it's been good, and has actually made my life a million times easier, not having to figure out how to make time to get over there, and get stuff done around my place etc.
It hasnt' taught me anything I didn't know about him, but it's helped us get started in establishing our routines and patterns. I would never consider living with someone with out the commitment of engagment however, that committment level was something I needed in order to make that leap.

I think I should have posted that in a different way.
Living together? We agree on.
Premarital sex? Mistakes happen sometimes.

I think I'm with you on this, though my reasons are based on alot of factors besides religious ones.

If your morals go back to the 1850s, then I agree with you 100%. I'm like that too, but when you get a man and a woman who are attracted to each other in the same room, a mistake is bound to happen. There's a verse in the Bible that talks about this, but that's another topic. That verse is so true and right to the point. But yeah, I agree with you 100%.

That makes three of us out of how many? lol. I think since we're living in a different time now, things have gotten so out of wack. It seems like serious relationships and staying married are a thing of the past. I think everyone is pretty much into their careers now, and I don't think anything is wrong with that, but I guess it's hard to concentrate on both. Whenever I get into a discussion with people on my morals, people go as if I'm the one with the problem. Back in the day it would be the other way around. Sleeping around and the FWB thing has always been there, even in the 1850s, but it was no where near as bad as it is now. I don't understand why people do it. Something is definitely wrong. I just don't think living together makes things any better, but this is the way it is now. This was unheard of in the past.
