I might be on the opposite side compared to most people here, but that is probably a good reason to break up. Your partner for life should be someone you share opinions with, by opinions I mean deep seeded beliefs that you doubt will change in your life (things like religion, political leanings, wether you want children etc...). Not saying you can't grow and change those through your life but generally your partner and you grow and change together.
I have to ask though, did you recently start spending less money on her?
I can assure you had nothing to do with me not spending money on her. In fact me spending too much money on her was working against my favor with her she indicated
- Don't dodge the question, Andrew.
- Are you honestly open-minded to her point of view? Open-mindedness is a two-way street; if you refuse to budge an inch and have her do the hard work of reconciling two different points of view for both of you, I don't blame her for leaving. You aren't entitled to anyone's time or affection.
- We're talking about something more than friends. We are talking about a relationship that has sex and intimacy and could develop into a marriage, which is usually a very long-term commitment. It's different from being a casual acquaintance with someone who holds a different opinion.
Im openminded to her view but i am biased against it. But the fact is i was the one constantly trying to reconcile our points of view and she was the one who refused to budge an inch
I was budging for her extremely, radically altering my lifestyle and goals and plans and desires to try to make things work with her. I changed positions, constantly sought compromises, etc. I will say my view on homosexuality was not the sole reason but it was the primary reason. Basically there was a number of things she didnt like about our differences but homosexuality was the main thing that made her unable to handle our differences.
I think we as in i and kiwifarms have been through this before, if you become my friend, i believe as long i didnt do anything to deserve ending the friendship, the person owes me their friendship. so yes, their time affection is I actually am entitled to.
And well she says shes unwilling to even be friends with someone who disagrees with her on that issue.
As for what the bible says on the issues you spoke of, i accept it, with the partial exception of rape. Because society's definition of rape today is ludicrous. Also the bible does support the punishment of both rapists and rape victims if they allow the rape to happen aka they arent rape victims if they actively choose not to resist a "rapist". Also as i said rape by deception doesnt exist. And statutory rape is a misnomer. It doesnt exist. If they choose to have sex it isnt rape. And the whole me too movement wirh the power dynamic being called rape is ridiculous. If you choose/agree to have sex with a person of authority over you, it isn't rape.
Doesnt take the bible to conclude homosexuality is wrong though. Just takes common sense.
And my now ex girlfriend never knew i think homosexuality is so evil it deserves death in an ideal society. I did my part to downplay my rejection of homosexuality. It wasnt good enough for her. So good riddens. Now i am free to do things by my rules. I dont waste my life trying to make her happy
