THIS is your example of why contraception is against Catholic teachings? Probably nothing to do with the fact Onan was an ADULTERER right? The pull out method, really? Pulling out isn't "contraception" and the Catholic Churches own preferred method is a natural birth control - basically monitoring the woman's cycle - which…

I don't blame you for no longer attending. This is why I stopped going to Church years ago - the preachy, judgmental, holier than thou attitude - and my late brother was gay and they were very unwelcoming towards him.... I only recently started going back because I finally found a Catholic Church that is not like any I've…

Nothing happens. Not at my Church anyway, but it's pretty liberal for a Catholic Church. I don't know what other Churches do. Ours never makes anyone feel shameful, unwelcome, or like "evil sinners" - unlike many others I've attended. They openly welcome all. My husband and I attended a pre-cana course there (after we were…

Gum Tea bags Vitamins Peanut butter singles Granola (to add to my yogurt) Cans of sardines. No one wants/steals my sardines!

No people don't need to be "called out" on their facebook actions. Either you're into facebook drama or you're not. If you participate - you are into the drama.

I would love to try these! I have cut down to a few a day on my own, and at one point had stopped entirely (for a short time). Back to a few a day... trying to get back to none! I think this would definitely help me as most times when I smoke now I think it's gross and wonder why I am still doing it, but just can't will…

Sorry - the all inclusive they went to with us was not in St Lucia (It was Punta Cana) = but they compared it to that because it was the only other all inclusive they'd been to. Since that trip I've been to other non Sandals adult only all inclusives that were even better than the one they thought was better than Sandals -…

A GF of mine went to Sandals St Lucia for her honeymoon... then they went with us to another all inclusive for like 1/2 the price and they said it was much better, more amenities, etc - from what I've heard Sandals is way overpriced. There are LOTS of adult only all inclusives to choose from. Tripadvisor is a great source.

Stay out of it. I have to say - if any cousin of mine thought they better understood the relationship between myself and my Mom or Dad - I'd say they were super presumptuous, nosy, and crossing a line they have no right to cross - and I'd tell them to mind their own business, and probably not in a nice way either. There…

I understand your religious convictions. Separation of Church and State is for a reason. For you personally marriage means one thing, to others it means something else, and whatever that is we have no right to deny them a Civil Marriage based on religious beliefs. Civil marriage isn't a Holy Sacrament - the terms of the…

Thanksgiving time. When was the last time you did a hand stand?

I had a similar situation back when I got divorced... After over 10 years of friendship girlfriend A sided with my X and my best friend B was sort of caught in the middle - not so much as who she chose (me) but that she still talked to and occasionally hung out with A. I also moved out of the immediate area so they live…

Depends on the friend and the situation. None of my friends are habitual cheaters - I probably wouldn't be friends with a habitual cheater to begin with... None of my friends have cheated on their spouse to my knowledge. Boyfriends yes... but they didn't commit to them for life. In general - I treat my friends the way I…

The average Boston salary is around 43,000. My husband and I are both over. Back in 2009 I rents were about 1300 a month right in the city for a 1 bedroom apartment (about 550-600 squ feet)... cheaper as you got further away or in less desirable areas. A 2 bedroom was almost double in some areas - most in excess of 2k in…

Ditto. My husband's butt is not too big, round, and firm....I think it's from playing goalie (ice hockey) all those down up squat like maneuvers :smokin:

Because without Freddie Mercury the queen is dead.

I liked it. It was overall entertaining which is what it was meant to be. I think Madonna looks awesome for her age and some past performers really would have been better off lip synching. I don't know who MIA is and missed the finger - not that I really care... She probably just wanted to be talked about - and that's what…

Rape victims (any woman claiming to be raped) shouldn't have to explain anything to politicians - they don't need to be excused by them. Rapes go unreported because women already think they won't be believed or it can't be proved, therefore, no justice and just a humiliating experience awaits them. Either you're pro-choice…

Maybe A is resentful? I think there's more to it than just unequal earnings.

Prayers for B. Maybe counseling would help him understand you are trying to get help with the budget so you don't feel like you're going under, not attacking him. Maybe you could write him a letter if every discussion turns into an argument. Maybe if you include the breakdown of expenses in the letter so he sees why you…

Over analyzing indeed!!! You are a 40 year old woman. Figure out what you want..... spend your time thinking about that, not trying to read his mind, because you'll never succeed at the latter. If it isn't him let it go... Limbo is not a fun place to be. Difficult as it may be - Move on. If it is him you need to do more…

^^^This is awesome. My husband would like you. :flowerforyou:

****THIS Absolutely this for anyone with plans to marry.

Whatever works, but clearly when A is throwing it in B's face - it isn't working. Currently my husband and I have separate accounts and a joint credit card. We are working toward joint accounts and eliminating all other credit card debt and only keeping a joint one. Even though our accounts are separate now - my money is…

This^^^ Men and women are different. Their perceptions and reactions are different - doesn't mean one's right and one's wrong. Doesn't mean one feels and one doesn't, they just express differently. When my husband and I don't see eye to eye - this is what we agree on - we're different, and neither of us are wrong in our…

First - congrats!!!! I second not saving on pictures - save elsewhere, these will be lifelong precious memories! Go try on lots of dresses - the one you pick may be nothing like what you think, things look much different on. I bought my wedding dress off the sale rack - yes it was way too big but after alterations still…

I wish they made anti -valentines day cards to send to all my friends... oh wait, they do! http://www.zazzle.com/anti-valentines+day+cards

I can usually find something I like in almost everything I've tried - except African food. Blah... never again. I don't like curry but still enjoy other Thai and Indian foods.

HA that's the one jersey that could get her strung up higher!

Patriots! Because I have been and always will be a fan and Belichik is the man! I'm also in love/lust with Rodney Harrison even though he's retired now, still wear the jersey :flowerforyou:
