Love the Life you Live
My boyfriend: Will not be down in a month. Will not be here for my birthday, Maybe not even our 1 year. Won’t be here to keep me company. Has to stay up there in that hell hole.
I honestly don’t know if I can do this.. I feel like we’ve come too far just to throw it away.. but this hurts me, so bad. Planning and planning just to get shut down for another month due to his brainwashing mother.
The next time I see him, I will be 17. The next time I see him, I will be a senior. The next time I see him, I will have probably lost some weight. The next time I see him, I might even be pregnant, with his kid. We’ll see if my period comes around… The next time I see him, will I feel the same? The next time I see him, we will have been dating for a year and have only seen each other 14 days total (not in a row, but spaced out) since he left 8 months ago. 14 days. The next time I see him, he will be moving down here, maybe, shit I don’t want to jinx it again..
I wish I could just say fuck it. Even if I have this ring on my finger. I have been through hell and back the past 10 months. He’s a great guy but, I have tortured myself emotionally. I get strong urges to cut. I have random spurts of crying. I have anxiety attacks. I just want to sleep. I’m back to being depressed. To be honest the only time I’m really not depressed is when he’s here. My friends don’t give a shit. My parents want me to think they give a shit. My sister thinks she’s entitled to be the one dysfunctional person in the family, so my mom is constantly ate up in her world. I’m doing this on my own. Tyler’s not here to comfort me, he keeps telling me “we’re in this together” but no.. not really. If we were he would be holding me and telling me that everything is going to be okay. So really, with my parents out, friends out, and Tyler not here, I’m fixing demolished and I can’t wait for this bullshit to be over. I can’t take this anymore.
Leviticus 20:13:
If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.
Nice try, Colbert.
Leviticus was written approximately 1400 years before Jesus’ birth.
Nice try, artemispotter.
Old Testament =/= New Testament. Seriously. Also, Leviticus also commands you to learn the Torah, which, if you’re getting Old and New confused, you clearly haven’t.
Not to mention the other ridiculous laws in Leviticus (and Deuteronomy, as well), including the following:
- No mixing of different types of fabric
- No having sex with a woman on her period
- Curse your mother or father? You must be killed
- Disabled people cannot worship God
- Stubborn children should be stoned.
So…. still want to argue how valid the OT is?
Also, in the Bible!=Jesus said it, anyway. Even in the NT, there are a lot of people who aren’t Jesus giving their opinions.
Truth.
Only if the words are in red (in many translations) does it mean that Jesus said it.
FWIW, the apostle Paul and I would not have been friends. Mortal enemies is more like it.
Hey, guys, remember that one time when Jesus declared Levitican law irrelevant?
The former regulation is set aside because it was weak and useless (for the law made nothing perfect), and a better hope is introduced, by which we draw near to God.
-Hebrews 7:18-19.
Having been Jewish for, you know, ever, I am endlessly amused at the Christian Right’s reliance on Leviticus. Even I, who didn’t understand the theological difference between Catholics and Protestants until I took a course on Christianity in college, knew that Jesus was totes anti-Leviticus.
Seriously, people…
^^^^^^^
Ugh thank you. Fellow Christian here. I’ve literally NEVER understood this logic. “hey guys let’s pick one arbitrary part of leviticus to harp on and ignore the fact that 99% of the new testament explicitly tells us the old covenants/laws no longer hold true”
I love it when self-professed “Christians” don’t know the ABSOLUTELY MOST SIMPLE basics of the difference between the Old and New Testament. If you are against gay marriage because of Leviticus, you should also keep kosher and be against tattoos. Otherwise you’re just another FLAMING HYPOCRITE.
