So on Sunday I went to church like usual and he came in just as it was letting out...our friend and he usually go to another service. After church he was getting baptized and having dinner with his Dad. Around 6 he texted an invite to meet him @ Joe's and then we all went over to his place. After our friend left, we were talking and he started to apologize. He was telling me about his relationship with his ex and how hard the breakup was, how he had doubts about her being a christian and how he felt he had messed up all of his relationships with sex. I was wondering up to the last bit where this was all going but after hearing that I started thinking maybe he had a point. I have always lived a bohemianesque life style, only had a handful of serious relationships and many many one nighters or friends with benefits and am getting tired of the single life. So he mentioned that at this point he feels, that for his spiritual sanity that he cannot have a relationship that is rooted in sex. I am dumbfounded...What ?!?!? a relationship without sex? I am pretty sure that never in ANY of my relationships, have I ever had relationship first and sex later. It is still mind boggling. So I see some kernel of truth in what he is saying and agree to try it, as crazy as it may seem, it may help me to grow more...we'll see.
