    Why Does Religion Have To Be The Focal Point Of Relationships?

    A friend of mine was telling me last night that he'd like to get back to his ex-girlfriend. Every time he feels closer to her... and they are heading in the right direction... she quickly will bring up God... and say... But do you love God as much as I do? And he looks puzzled? And he believes more than the average guy... and quickly responds... what does your love for God make any difference for my love towards God? We both believe... I don't understand why we are having this talk? And quickly escalates to an argument. She goes... but I want us to go to church together and be a family one day. He goes... what makes you think I don't want that? Of course I do... then she replies... but I don't believe you love God as much as I do. Then he replies... why in the hell are you dating me then? She goes... because you are an attractive guy.

    What do you guys make of this? It just seems like religion doesn't always bring people closer together. It's making this couple hurt. They are lacking something. Who's wrong in this situation? I think it's the woman's fault. Is this a way to manipulate her man? Does she really want someone who appreciates God as much as she does? I feel sorry for my friend. No one deserves to be in a depressed state of mind about who loves God enough? Fukking unreal in my book.

    Sounds like she's the 'settling down type' now. It always happens. nothing wrong with it, if the guy is wiling to commit but thats what it sounds like now...she's ready for a routine and it will involve some church stuff.

    He can always distract her with a joke...."so you wanna praise God tonight? How about a little 'missionary' work to start"

    That's exactly what I said. He cheated on her a couple years ago. He's a changed man. He really is... Funny thing is... he never gave a sh#$ for her. Like... always took her for granted. He had her on the side. Went for another girl... she found out. She found God... apparently. He said he was sorry for cheating on her. Not really overly up her a$$... just basically said... hey I fu#$ed up... (this is what she always wanted... was a solid relationship with him.) Now... she does a lot of testing. And in my book it's too much. Quite possibly maybe she went a little nutty because of the break up? Now she's hardcore religious. And he's like... what the fuk did I create? And I feel really bad for him. Because it's like... he got hit with a double sword. He kind of dies either way. Not cool.

    She's asking him an impossible question. "Do you love GOD as much as I do" is loaded. This poor sap doesn't stand a chance. He should just give up on her and move on. She'll continue to question his faith, and use it against your friend.

    I agree. I'm dating a girl who is pro church and wants me come with her from the beginning. I never did (although I use to go to church a lot before but stop going). Later on we got into some drama and rumors about me supposedly hooking up with some coworkers. We broke up as she said that I was settling down and being serious about our relationship. Made me laugh because I wasn't the one who made the church invitation. After a few months, we are back together and she doesn't mention about church and loving God as much as she does. I'm happy how things are going now, but the day she ask me about going to church with her will be something we both will have to agree on depending how deep we feel about the relationship. I wouldn't mind going back to church, but if I did I would want to do it for myself first.

    Just to clear up the story a little. My buddy doesn't mind settling down. He's just afraid it's going to be one of those... the girl wants to tell the man what to do all the time... and he's not all about that. He just wants everything to be call down the middle. But again... just like I told him... I thought religion brought people closer together? Like you have a core together. Absolutely not. It's a shame.

    if shes so goddamn religious, tell your friend to settle down with her and when this believer wants to "tell the man what to do all the time" like you put it, your friend should cite the bible on the parts where it's said she should STFU and understand her role. No authority over men.


    That, or tell your friend he needs to date someone sane.

    Hate to break it to him, but if he's going to settle down it's pretty black and white, no grey areas....he either throws on a wife beater and pops a can of Natural Light and slaps her around for telling him what to do....or learns to just nod and say yes and keep it moving and the relationship will work out great. It's a natural tendency for the girl to want to boss him around a bit. Embrace it and smile. Otherwise just stay single.

    About 1 time in 100 religion helps turn someone's life around. The other 99 times its busy starting wars and making people do stupid shit.

    Religion has killed more people than anything else and that is a fact. It is a shame, but the world would be a better place without it.

    He should just get rid of her now. She sounds super annoying already and you know what will happen. They'll get married and he'll have to put up with her shit for a few years until she finds a guy who actually loves god as much as her. Then they get a divorce and she takes half his shit.
