Thrive to spite them

I would say you are justified in being annoyed.

You are trying to spend time with him and he keeps changing things around and not letting you know until (it seems) the last minute.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I would be more than annoyed. I would be wondering whether CBD was intentionally trying to get some distance. But I'm paranoid like that.

I'm not really worried about that. I think he's doing a 180, and he's allowed, I guess. Part of why he freaked was the amount of time we were spending together--we were basically living together. So, when we got back together we set a limit of not spending more than three nights a week together. That's been good in many ways. But, this week has just been weird. And now annoying.

I'd be annoyed, too. And paranoid in the same manner as Laga.

Yeah. The Bible says a lot about salvation. Peter said repent and be baptised, Paul said it was about faith in Jesus, James said faith without works is dead, Matthew 25 mentions only works and rejects faith, John says no one comes to Jesus except God draws them.

I was given to understand in my "Religion and the Early Church" course, that one of the reasons for including so many variations on a theme was so that it would be more inclusive. That there was no one true way and that any of those methods were acceptable. The early founders didn't want to exclued people, they wanted to get as many converts as possible and if that meant including the sacrifice of two goats and a guinea pig to prove your faith, then it got included. From that sense, Christianity has been a fantastic failure.

vw, I think I'd be annoyed, but not upset. In the relationshippy sense. Given that overcloseness was an issue before, he may be (unconsciously) testing the boundaries a bit. So, okay, give him shit that he's fucking with your plans a little. But really, you haven't been together all that long, and the occasional time when his buddies come up with something last minute that he wants to do? Is that really that big a deal?

Heh. And when I was going around asking each group how they were doing, I noticed and said, "OK, how are you doing here, other than looking up the answer on the internet?" And he wasn't even embarrassed, and kept the laptop out for a while longer.

vw, you are justifiably annoyed.
