The problem is what they disagree on.  Will it be something like "SUV or minivan" or something that can put the soul in danger.  So no, I will not knowingly enter into a relationship that will put my soul in danger. 

 

I bet you have some awesome first dates.

Wait, so... how do you meet women who discerned out of a convent?  That doesn't happen too often.  

 

I fear he may not be looking for women who discerned out of a convent, but rather women who are in the convent. Otherwise I too am at a loss as to how he will find such a girl.

I was just thinking, and I am pretty sure that this is the first time I have seen non-joking threats of physical violence on Phatmass. :P It is so uncommon that we do not even have a rule against it.

About 80% of the threads Norseman posts in turn into debates about Norseman and his dating life.

Refer to my original post on this thread, that will give you the background on what I mean.

 

Okay, sure:

 

 

 

Believe it or not, when the last lady I dated broke up with me to enter a religious community, she told me "That's the risk you take when dating a religious girl" and if I wanted to get married, I should look for a "bad girl" (HER words, NOT MINE!).  Gee, thanks, I'm glad to see all my efforts go to waste!

 

So I don't see how that helps.  You want a woman who is discerning religious life? 

 

And it seems to me like you have a severe "treating women like objects" problem.

Okay, section two of this chapter: You are not psychic. You unfortunately do not know what your arguments and disagreements will be about.

 

No, but one can take reasonable and prudent precautions.  If I see that the person only occasionally attends Mass, is promiscouous or has openly non-Catholic attitudes, etc. that is a sign of trouble and I will simply not pursue her.

I'm not going to complain. This is the best and most entertaining thing to happen on Phatmass in such a long time. I bet it's even better on your end with the added bonuses of wine.

 

Although we may be giving you a hard time, Norseman, I applaud you for finally giving us an argument we care about. I can't remember the last one of these we had since the great modesty debate that made it against the rules to ever speak modesty again. :bravo:

At the time I didn't know she was discerning religious life (but asking a lady if she is done discerning religious life has certainly moved to a "first date" question for me. 

 

And I don't see how that means I treat women like objects.

Pants on women are inherently immodest because they show the outline of the woman's inner thigh and pubic region.

 

 

Aaaaaand, go!
