Sex in Europe > Celibate mission trip.
The OP sounds more mature and selfless than her, for the same reasons.
Based on what standards?
Caring for others before oneself?
We've been kissing, can't I hold on to her, pull back on the amorousness and let her grow? Maybe i can be there to help her as per the previous post:Originally posted by: reverend boltron
And you'll feel the conviction of the Holy Spirit on you.
Be patient. Everyone has their trying times in life, and it looks like your girlfriend has had that. That's not always an easy thing to get over, but it's much easier with someone there to help them.
Actually missionaries do greater-good work, stuff like teach people English, make clean wells for villages that don't have running water, teach native people better farming techniques.Trying to convert people to your religion by giving them things and tricking them with your kindness.

Personally, I say ditch the Christianity and follow the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Our Heaven has a stripper factory and beer volcano... but that's just me. 🙂
