[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I met a new guy that I really like but he is a newfound god fearing person. I never grew up religious but my parents were raised catholic. I believe in god, but I have no interest in taking up a religion. He was raised catholic, abandoned that faith as he grew up, and is now religious again. He is not into going to church but he believes in having a relationship with god, doing your best in every situation, treating everyone with love and kindness because we are all gods children, etc. I'm sure I'm not fully representing it well. He said he was living a life that didn't make him proud ( nothing criminal - partying and sleeping around, etc.) and he wanted to change to be a better man. He looked to god to lead him in the right direction, and felt he wasn't doing right by god, etc. I respect his choice to include god in his life. [b]I'm not interested in that lifestyle though.[/b] [/quote]

So it doesn't matter how cute and funny he is or how good his career is, or that he claims to want marriage and kids, you are not interested in  a huge piece of who he fundamentally is.

How old are you?[/quote]

OP here. I’m not into going to church but I’m fine with[b] believing in good and living your life to be the best you can be. Treating others how you want to be treated, loyalty, respecting everyone[/b], etc. I’m 32 and he is 35.[/quote]

You can be all of that without being "god fearing" and living with God in your life. None of that has anything to do with religion.[/quote]

Yeah it concerns me that he got to 30 before he realized he should treat others with respect and kindness and needs "god" for him to continue doing so at 35.[/quote]

OP here. You're totally missing what I said. He was always kind. He just felt like he wasn't respecting himself and others by having casual sex. He decided partying with friends every weekend and sleeping around wasn't what he wanted anymore. Most people decided that around that time when they're ready to settle down. [/quote]

So why are  you here crowdsourcing if he's such a great guy and everybody else acted exactly like him in their 20s and 30s ?  What are you questioning in your 2 threads on this topic?[/quote]
