That would be a bit sad.

Nothing I can do about it. She's the boss.

I dont think I could be in a relationship where my girlfriend dictated if I could or could not drink beer or not.

Or most things, actually.

 

[Chxta]

She hates alcohol!

You are a grown man and your own person. Does she seriously expect you never to drink again?

 

[Slagathor]

Of course she does; she's a woman

Yes, she does.

I think I couldnt be in a relationship were I couldnt put my foot down on something and say no (or yes) as the final answer.

That is of course in dire moments.

 

[Slagathor]

Nor could I - hence my singleness

 

[Dan]

I dont even think I could ever let myself be a doormat and have someone restrict me from doing what I want. Its religion all over again.

 

[Slagathor]

Yeah I know. There could be such a thing as too independent though... That's why most partners gave up on having a relationship with me...

Well sacrifices have to be made when she is the right person, and Uju is definitely the right person!

I had enough alcohol to last 3 lifetimes when I was in the army, and I still do (like tomorrow evening when she's at her parent's), so if it means giving it up in her presence, God help me, I will!

 

[Slagathor]

It's just... she doesn't seem to have a lot of respect for you if she wants to change you that way...

Religion is stopping the world moving forward.

Its an out-dated practice that was useful in the past, but which is past it sell-by date. Sooner the world realises this, the better.

I think one of the great modern tragedies of our time is that spiritual beliefs and modernity are considered incompatible, when in reality that's complete horse*&$#%.

The core problem is that the visible thought leaders of any religious influence today are entirely of an anti-progressionist bias, so what we end up with are terrorists steeped in a mutant Islamic fundamentalism, anti-science fundamentalist Christians steering the religious agenda, etc. And at the same time, the only people left as visible advocates for science and modern, rational thought are positioned as anti-religious agnostics or atheists. There are people on both sides of the spectrum who like it this way, however.

It almost seems as if there is no rational place for a person of any kind of faith to have beliefs consistent with modern society, science, and progressive thinking, which is completely bogus. I hate a society that has to roll back the centuries in order to feel life has a spiritual meaning. And I hate a society that is convinced that progressive thought can only come about in a spiritually bankrupt world.

I don't know what's going to change it, but I cannot see this condition sustaining for very long.

You at least know that your perfect partner will give you your space. I suppose if you want so much freedom they break up with you then you subconciously know they arent what you want.

Im beggining to sound like a less perverse Zlatan.

Cut her some slack. I went after her afterall, and I always knew she had this thing about alcoholics.

*cough* She has an uncle who is a dead drunk, and till this day he's still dependent on her parents. So I guess that's where the hatred (if I may use that word) comes from...

Hmm well as long as you're happy with the situation...

 

[Chxta]

I am. Very as a matter of fact. At least our kids (when they come) won't be under a bad influence
