I got the first ticket done, am struggling with the wgu.edu getting rerouted. I go the dmz and change the IP address to what I ping on my own machine, flush dns on the dmz server. For someone reason I can't any wgu.edu to come up on the Linux machine.

Gentlemen, please use discernment while dating, especially online. Not every woman who says she’s Christian is actually serious about her walk with God. Some know the right words, verses, and church language, but their actions eventually reveal their real intentions.

One thing I’ve learned: when a woman disregards your time, your peace, or your independence, she will often insist it’s not a big deal or claim you’re overreacting if it bothers you. If you tolerate that early on and give up your control just to avoid conflict, those double standards will only grow.

The Bible says, “Above all else, guard your heart” (Proverbs 4:23). A counterfeit woman will slowly pull you toward compromise, confusion, and distraction from God instead of walking alongside you closer to Him.

Pay attention to temperance, humility, and whether she respects you and your decisions.

A godly woman isn’t perfect, but she should genuinely be pursuing Christ, not just using Christianity to get a man who will provide and cater to them.

I was raised by methodist, parents are liberals who attend a female pastor, mother is militantly pro choice. I was disillusioned at how people act inside church vs out, spent most of my youth trying to have the world while thinking myself better than atheist, would participate in hook up culture but try to be more noble, which eventually lead to me seeing prostitutes​ regularly.

I was assured of my salvation in an independent Baptist Church and believe that is the closest denomination to what the Bible says, and has the most people who "walk the walk". I've joined, serve in, got married in an independent Baptist Church to a Pastor's daughter.

I'm a true believer, but I struggle with Baptist culture. Three services a week is a lot. I can do that, but then there's more. I absolutely loathe retreats. Men retreats, marriage retreats, just 6 sermons crammed in an afternoon and morning, with Sunday starring me in the face. I hate staying at the church between services cause my wife is serving, but feel guilty if I go home and relax between. Why is men's prayer breakfast on Saturday, my one day off from work and church a week? I find potlucks annoying, I like to just eat what I want and I hate all the left overs they make.

Then there's the drinking. I like to drink, I like how it makes social situations easier. It helps with boredom, helps me relax. Now I drink may 2 in a setting social setting, maybe every other week. I fully admit drinking cand be harmful, I've made some poor decisions due to drinking.

Things came to ahead on vacation with my wife. 4 hour flight with our one year old, to come see her sister graduate Bible college. Two services on Sunday, chapel Monday morning, ground breaking for the university after that, commencement later tonight. I want to bash my head against a brick wall till my brain leaks out my ears with all this sitting around listening to people talk. But can't have a drink to make it tolerable cause of course we're sharing an Air BNB with her family. I'm miserable, she knows it and crying about how miserable I am. I'm struggling, I don't want to be the husband who's never there but everything with her family is just 24/7 whenever we visit.
