That's awesome that you were open minded enough to let him be able to influence you in a positive way. And that he didn't force it onto you, but let you make up your own mind and come to see things.

Yeah. He did get angry tho lol

Lol, why did he do that?

He holds his values very personal to him

He’s prideful over them

Pride is a large thing amongst many men. 😛

Heheh

I hope I can help him lessen the intensity though

If we get into an argument he doesn’t talk to me for awhile bc his heart hardens over it

Meanwhile I’ve usually already forgiven and moved on

Well, forgiveness is important.

You love him, I'm guessing, right?

It is!!!

Yes

Forgive him for his pride and his heart hardening.

I'm sure he respects you.

Men are stubborn sometimes.

He is respectful of me. And I don’t hold it against him bc I’m very stubborn myself

Talking about theology, spirituality, or anything to do with beliefs can get intense. If he's respectful to you, that shows a lot about his values.

As well as his character.

Yes I truly believe he’s an alpha male too.

We haven’t been talking not only since he’s busy but bc of something like that

So he usually is the one leading?

Yeah

And assertive

He has depression but he still studied hard, goes to school full time

Studies*

Takes care of his responsibilities which I really admire

That is very admirable.

But we haven’t been talking bc he feels I insulted his religion when I didn’t mean to. (The time that I did I was emotional so I probably didn’t word myself correctly) so he hasn’t forgiven me for that. He was actually still willing to talk to me though, just as long as we don’t speak of religion again. But I don’t want to have a relationship like that so I just said I won’t talk to him for however long it takes him

He said he doesn’t know how long it’d take him. But even so was still respectful of me

Try to be patient if you can.

He sounds very willful.

Lol he is

But yes I actually have a lot of patience

So it’s alright

New biblical question! It’s a good one

Pride is the same nature of anger

I love Jesse bc all my life I’ve struggled with my anger, just a couple months ago when I discovered him & his churches I really felt my anger decrease

My anger has protected me a lot of my life

It’s hard to shed
