> 2) I'm afraid you're going to do the typical (and thus unreproachable) thing
No - I won't do this so long as I am not given reason to fear being around
you...
> 4) I still want to do things with you, but considering (2) affects nearly
I will do stuff with you so long as we can't act mature together -- as friends.
> 1) Have you prayed about this a lot? I sure have, and unless I'm completely
Simple answer: Yes
Elongated answer: Yes -- I have prayed about this A LOT. And I can't say
that what I did was exactly what God told me to do. On the other hand, he
is a personal God and of the numerous times I have felt God's presence, I
have never felt any leading that you are "the one", or for that matter
that I am "wacko". Perhaps I am also blinded by emotion, but I am sure I
will soon find out.
I must say this, though... Any time I have prayed long and hard about
something I tend to be most at peace with the decision that it would
appear at a later time that God was leading me to. I walked away
yesterday feeling sad and somewhat guilty that I had hurt you like that
and yet I felt a peace that I did the right thing.
For you to say that God thinks I'm wacko -- I take offence to that.
> 2) Are you ever going to talk to me willingly again?
Yes
> 3) Is being friends a possibility? Over the course of our relationship you
Yes - I do want to be friends. I totally value your friendship. It seems
as though anytime I tried to tell you something to this effect while we
were seeing each other you'd take offence to it. I was trying to say how
much I valued our friendship while at the same time not belittling the
boyfriend/girlfriend part.
