Paddington Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I threw this question in the middle of the explicit thread about NFP. Maybe it can get a few answers with its own thread. Peace, Paddington Can a man and woman be really close and hug and kiss and not plan on getting married since they don't have the money? Maybe in the distant future, but maybe not? Should the man step away and hope that another man with more money comes along for her to marry and have kids with? Even if they are both very happy doing what they are doing? And they submit to the pope and encourage each other to submit to the pope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightofChrist Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Doesnt the Church forbid Passionate kissing? I know one of the Popes said as much, but can not recall which one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 You don't have to have money to get married. My parent's were poor but we never lacked for things that we actually needed. My husband and I are poor, but we are also very happy, and also do not lack for any necessities. If you love each other, you will find a way to afford the things any children you have need.

But I think there's another thread on making out already, so if anybody wants to debate that you can always dig that one up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hold hands and consider yourself lucky.[/quote] There's always short chaste kisses, cuddling, hugs, back massages, falling asleep on each other while cuddling, pressing your cheeks against each other while you hug, poking, slow dancing, peering into each others eyes, playing with each others' hair...just to name a few And those are just forms of physical affection. Don't get me started on flowers, love letters, ice skating, and stuff like that. Edited February 22, 2008 by XIX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
