^(don't say that IRL)
I suppose. I made a real effort at converting last fall. Tried praying every night and whatnot. Never felt anything. To be fair, I didn't go to a physical church, but I didn't have a car either
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN - I'm glad for you either way. Seems like you're pretty excited about this girl. If you're struggling or something feel free to reach out, whether for advice or just someone to listen. I've recently had a rather devastating split with a girl, and helping out other guys is really something that's made me feel better about it all.
@Aleis⊕ccidentalis Thanks. And I'm sorry to hear that. It's been about a year since my last break up. I'll keep you in the loop!
Although I haven't talked to this girl too much recently. She might be dumb. I hope not! Let's find out.

@TMatthews I think you are looking at it the wrong way. You shouldn't be trying to "feel" something. God is in everything so trying to feel his presence is like a fish trying to feel wet. Participate in the fellowship of believers and you will see positive outcomes in your life.
Also these things take time. For some of the saints it took entire lifetimes to rationalize their faith.
Let's try to keep this thread on courtship in relation to church and not a theological discussion.
@Der Seeteufel - SD I think this is a widespread thing. People expect to see a vision or feel a voice. I dont' know if it's the media conditioning, or just shitty pastors, but it's a 'missing feeling' I've also dealt with.
@Attrition in the desert Understood. Sorry.
Ok. My advice for courtship is as follows. Step 1. Go to church. Step 2. Meet trad GF. Step 3. Trust God will take care of things. Step 4. At least 7 kids. (I'm going for 8)
I'm not even sure where I'd go to find a trad church. I've met girls through college republicans, but it's fair to say conservative doesn't really describe them in their personal lives. I guess that's to be expected when you're at a college in the northeast
@Der Seeteufel - SD Lofty goals. Good luck though. Always good to have more IE babies
@TMatthews I'm told the go-to are SSPX catholic, Orthodox, and Confessional Lutheran.
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Also FSSP
SSPX aren’t Catholic
@SamanthaM I don't have any experience with them, I just hear about them on Fatherland and Godcast 😑
@SamanthaM Thanks, I'll read up on them.
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN. Normal Catholic works too and there are a lot more.
I'm partial, of course, since I met my wife at one
What does Trad mean to you guys?
Barefoot and pregnant
That’s it?
oh and IN THE KITCHEN
I was mostly using it in the memtic sense.
okay shitposts aside
I think you mean “hobbled” and pregnant.
Well, I’m asking seriously.
Trad is an odd word that holds many connotations
At this point: not pozzed, not coalburned, wants kids and willing to take second-in-command when needed is good enough for me.
Although a good husband recognizes when his wife does know more.
What I generally mean when I use "Trad" is: Things that are generally tradition, but not explicitly, good for society essentially.
Sometimes I think a pro-white hippy would suit me more. But they seem even rarer.
No sex before marriage, no race mixing, actually try to be in it for life
I cannot find many “trad” guys either.
I think guys can easily be made trad
So many are leftist dummies.
Interesting
Yeah right @Deleted User Easier said than done.
