Engaged. People do that all the time without
getting married, these days. Makes things a
bit more formal.

yes, believe it or not, i actually got engaged in my younger days.
of course, neither of us took it in the least bit serious. we were only friends and got engaged whilst completely out of our heads. i never even slept with her, everyone else thought we had.
but she was my best friend. better than a dog or cat.
i hope she is happy.

I don't think old people should be allowed to get married.

Well, I personally know of people who got engaged in two weeks or less after meeting, and have had 50+ years of marriage. Conversely, some couples can date someone for two years, marry, and find they ended up with the wrong person. You just never really know in this life -- you have to take risks sometimes. We're going to pre-marital counseling, too. I don't like being lonely -- I've had four years to come to terms with that reality.

I agree. If it feels right, go with it.
From what I remember, your faith
means that you won't have sex
outside of marriage? And there's
no way of really knowing someone
without living with them.

Ya, no sex -- and it's been difficult for us both to hold to that -- but we can tell there's DEFINITELY sensual chemistry there, so I'm not worried about sexual compatibility.

No, man, I don't care what church says -- I didn't even attend church for several years -- I just go by the Book. And about going your own way, "We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all." ("Him" being Christ.) Isaiah 53:6.

It doesn't matter what I say; what does God say? That's my daily thought process. Kilroy, you believe in God, but not in obeying Him. On that point, Jesus asked His disciples in Luke 6:46, "Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord', but don't do the things that I say?" Which god do you believe in?

did the bible ever say I couldn't masturbate or have sex before marrage
I don't even try to live by the bible-it's a book
I do beleive in God-and take a few things from the bible (not everything) it's an odd system I've devised-then again I'm an odd person :lol:
(note I'm not trying to attack you-I'm curious, my dad refuses to ever talk about religion) :roll:
