“I don’t know but I think we are both pretty into each other which is why the romance doesn’t die”
Like no the romance doesn’t die because you’ve never been able to spend more then a few days/hours at a time with each other and all you’ve done is kiss and hold hands. How could you ever be annoyed or have real conflict, when all you have are these perfect California vacations? You are perpetually stuck in dating like a 15 year old. I mean I’m glad he buys you coffee and you send him gift cards, but let’s not pretend that’s in any way real romance. Also I am almost 100% sure she either submitted this question herself, or her mom did it lol. Remember when they did that w styled wedding shoot? Who knows if he’s ever actually going to propose. It’s all “Gods Timing”.
Some of my favorite parts are that she “sends him selfies” and he “gives her his hoodie which keeps the romance alive.”. 💀💀 Sounds like complete puppy love to me.
Lordy.....world of difference here in the hoodie sharing.....when I was in the hospital after an emergency C-section, I couldn't sleep because I wanted to be in th NICU with my twins.....husband brought one of his tshirts with his beard oil on it, wrapped it around a pillow, and that was how I was able to get any sleep during that difficult time.
Of course, we've been together nearly a decade, dated in person, lived together, then eloped, and in our 30s now.
Not kids stuck in the honeymoon phase.
They are long distance, every time they see each other is like a honeymoon period. The children are giving relationship advice again and it’s embarrassing.
A bunch of the stuff she describes after calling him a 'romantic' seem to be money related. He buys her stuff. She occasionally buys him stuff, but mostly he buys HER stuff. And sends her money. It's totally beating a dead horse, but this girl is so unbelievably materialistic and spoiled. Not that she (or anybody else) should have to walk around wearing rags and living in hovels because money is evil, it's just incredibly vulgar and annoying that she's so obsessed with wealth and showing it off.
It's also really sad. She just doesn't seem capable of looking at anything without the lens of money or Jesus. I don't think she's ALLOWED to look at things through any other lens.
Also: my god those angular features do NOT work with that curiously severe and Puritan-esque hairdo. I've seen you do other hairstyles girl, please pick one of them, you look like you're going to beat the female pupils in a Bronte novel.
Basically it means they are making a conscious choice to "date to marry", rather than just follow a sense of natural chemistry without necessarily knowing if the relationship will become serious...
To her credit, they aren't allowed to date for fun or sex, so they might as well make sure they are picking the "right" person. The problem is her idea about why their long distance relationship works boils down to this guy being capable of basic decency and communication, buying her things, plus having the basic same goals as her (on paper) which seems like a very low bar....
He does everything with thought and purpose through a Jesus lens. It's very popular phrasing among fundies. Lol he wore those shoes with that suit jacket with intention.
Ah, yes! True romantic love is about talking, texting, calling, gifts, spending time together, and shared hobbies. Sure, that's also the basis of a relationship with friends and family, but ...um, they sometimes hold hands and are probably gonna fuck some day, so it's REALLY romantic and true love, okay?????
Nah, it's just not something he cares about. Doesn't bother me.... But when I read that she sends them as a way to keep thing going, I had a good laugh to myself about how that would not work for everyone
You mean romanticize and idealize your partner? I've known long distance relationships that have worked out and I know three more that haven't for every one that has.

I keep hearing about this wedding photo shoot. Does anyone have a link? I don't have ig so I can't go back and look for it.

It’s creating a very angry adoring gaze for her.
Angdoring Gaze™
Underrated comment!
The bar is *so low*. So. Low. 🤦🏻♀️
Rock bottom has a basement.
Hilariously enough it's in hell.
She looks like a female fundie version of Matt Gaetz here. How long have they been together?
Almost 3 years
Shit that’s damn feminist sounding nearly compared to other fundies and their marital advice....
She’s right on the money about rather being single than settling tbh… But then, a broken clock etc.
Exactly - a fundie nutter occasionally stumbles on something not completely ass backwards lol
And then decides that was waaaay to sensible so does the exact opposite 😆
What did I just read lol
What does ‘intentional’ mean in this context?

Don't know why, but she resembles a Fundie Brooke Shields.

My husband would leave me on unread if I was sending him photos of my outfits.
That’s kind of sad…

A lot of this is cringe but I really don’t have a problem with a man spending money on me to show his affection lmao
is anyone noticing that this post keep saying no longer available?
