    It's Time For Another Be-Loo-Tiful Discussion! How Often Do YOU Clean the Bathroom?

    I flush the toilet after use of course :) I have yet to help out on cleaning at home. Thanks for reminding me. My current job is such that I attend nature's call wherever I go. Toilet. Out in the open. Such is the nature of my job. Excuse me for my honesty. I'm in a rush all the time. So when...

    Nothing but questions.

    If i don't ask no questions, I don't get no lies. Who else but education helps build the wall with all the bricks on them? Do we need such education for kids in general?

    interfaith marriage

    On reading the other replies, I gather it must be hard for you. Have you considered separation from him? Better to live your life away from such a man that beats and physically abuses his wife than with him and the kids. Him mistreating you would have a lasting effect on the kids. Separate and...

    interfaith marriage

    God accepts us exactly the way we are. He is your spouse. So what if he believes differently from you. You are called by God to accept him as he is and love him. Don't let your faith in God stop you from accepting and loving him as he is. Respect what he believes in and give him space. You be...

    Crumbling marriage

    You must realise that we as men don't and can't always be honest emotionally with women. I'll tell you a little about me. I wanted to marry being a virgin. My mother taught me that. We are all taught things in our lives and we try to live up to them. And we fail. I am neither married nor am I a...

    Crumbling marriage

    Yes, I am a man. I never said that it wasn't hurtful for the woman. Please read what I shared carefully. There are far worse hurts than that. Both men and women are capable of the same things. It is awful to be betrayed. I just tried to help as best I could according to my life experiences. I am...

    Crumbling marriage

    Your husband is a human being. He isn't a machine. You have to accept him as he is. Not for who you want him to be. Didn't you promise, "In good and bad, in sickness and in health." You're old school. I respect you for your values. It's fair to expect your spouse to love you as you love your...

    Gaming / Boredom / Alternatives?

    Someone beat me to it. There you go. You can spend an eternity mastering the art of doing someone else mentally. You can communicate your dominance and test your mental endurance and build resilience through this amazing game. The oldest of board games. You will never get bored. Old school...

    What are you listening to?

    Don't know if I posted this song already. The only Petra song I like and listen to. Haven't heard a lot of songs of theirs except this one. Used to hear it in the radio from back in the day

    Good 90's songs.

    This is a song we listened to on our way home by school van. Brings back memories. One of my favourite songs from back in the day. Who let the dogs out, I'm blue, Bon Jovi - it's my life, Eminem, etc. Greener days. Lol

    I need some serious advice

    You only need give what you possibly can. People who give, give from their surplus usually. Although you can be generous, remember that you belong to a family as far as financial expenses go. Your faith in God and fellowship in a Church should help you support the family. Give what you can. Not...

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    Maybe such is my life. I have suffered and sacrificed a lot in my life for the sake of God. Not the most perfect guy here. I think I am allowed to be the way I am. At least you have a circle of friends. I have few friends. And I talk to maybe 1 or 2 of them about my life. I have been asked this...

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    You were curious about my relationship with God. If I didn't have a relationship with him, I wouldn't be here. And I don't like anyone asking me that. I would never ask you that or anyone that. Communicating with God beyond a certain point is a personal choice. Freewill. And everyone does it...

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    Seem to have my friend? Please go through the four fold caste system. Varnashrama Dharma a.k.a Manusmrithi. I know my society and my culture. More than half the people I know get married in their castes accordingly. Indians don't marry because they genuinely love each other. They strictly marry...

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    Thank you @seoulsearch It means a lot. Yes. Parents play a role in our lives. I don't hold either of my parents responsible. They did their best. Both of them. Given their parental background. My father was raised by adoptive parents while he thought his real parents were his uncle and aunt...

    Do Parents and Married People Get Told By Others to "Get a Life"?

    That is very true. A problem shared is a problem halved. I am very thankful for your kind words. I know that there are good people in this forum. After all, we love the same God. The God who knows us, hears us and calls us by name. One other thing I failed to mention. I have never seen my...
