I don't know specifics, only experience. When my husband and I were dating, we went to the same congregation, and lived 5 minutes away from each other. We were never in a car alone together, althou...
see, i'm with you. especially if you're seriously dating or engaged. so you're in a car. big deal. moving at 55 mph kind of prevents any craziness.
Yeah, I've always had a thing about this too. I understand the need for being cautious not for the sake of making sure we don't do anything, but just to make sure we don't get in trouble. If people are determined to bow-shaka-wow-wow then they'll figure out how to do it!
Very true, but I think that if one or both persons has a "past" (I don't know any other way to put it), it's better to be careful. You never want rumors to start, and so sometimes you have to be overly careful. That's when I think it should really apply.
People'll start rumors about anyone..past or not. Even! if they don't have even the littlest bit of factual basis. So sad.
This is true. I just know that, as long as we didn't give people something to talk about, they were less likely to do it. If we were covering our butts, it was easier to not only stop rumors, but stop from being tempted, too.
haha so true. people talk no matter what you do. you have know idea how many times i've wanted to jump up and give a talk entitled "Minding Your Own Business."
Yeah I know what you mean Janine. Why can't people just mind their own business. It's ridiculous.
Oh my word.....I couldn't agree more. Every young person and old person in my hall needs to hear that talk. If you ever develop it, give me your outline. Hehehe.
just tell them the scripture that says that....I can't even remember where it's at now.....and i just recited it the other day
exactly. and do you know how impossible it is once you are engaged to have someone constantly w/ you to go to reception halls, photographer, florist, etc. I can't see driving all over the place in seperate cars or not going somewhere at all b/c there is no one to go with you.
This is true. It was a pain in the butt for us. It's manageable, but annoying.
but there is a back seat, haha
um you'd think...BUT there are a few funky things i've seen in cars next to me....LOL
haha yeah, but if you are doing that, you are pretty determined to be bad anyway and seperate cars isn't going to stop you
I think like..the whole idea is "being in seperate cars stops the temptation" hah..suuuuure it does!
lol SO true!
