according to a quick google it's not necessary for Godparents if you are an adult

though obviously speak to a priest to get an actual, weighted opinion on the matter

Just go talk to the priest after Mass. He should be happy to discuss everything with you.

OK, thanks for your insight, I appreciate it :)

@GenkiDaman I’m guessing you’re an adult? Myself, my parish priest and a few members of my parish were chatting over lunch last Sunday about someone who reached out to a friend of mine. This person wished to be received into the church in the traditional rites. Father stated that without a firm commitment to the Catholic faith and regular (read: meet your obligation ie Sunday’s and holy days of obligation) there would be absolutely no point. He commented that the church nowadays seems to baptise & confirm more ‘lapsed Catholics’ than ‘Catholics’ as many who are baptised and confirmed are hardly seen again at mass. This is especially true in parochial sacraments of initiation classes in systemic catholic schools in Australia (my country). 95% of the kids confirmed are never seen again at Mass. We need those who believe in the faith and who hold fast to its precepts (Mass attendance on Holy Days of Obligation is a precept of the Church), as they are the future of the Church. You will probably be required to undergo catechesis prior to reception. I will pray for you along your journey into the Catholic faith

Naturally, there would be no point in committing myself to the catholic faith, if I wasn't meaning to hold fast to the precepts.
Thank you for the wishes :)
If anyone is interested, I might update on Wholesome Sunday.

Please do

Okay bois

I'm in a pickle!

What's your problem?

So, see, I spent 5 years with a person and I thought she was perfect, but long story short; she decided to thot up and throw it all away because "MUST ENJOY MY YOUTH" kind of thought. K fine I already overcame that. But it appears that I forgot how to approach people and I can't seem to correct myself, how do you do it? I think it looks strange to just talk to people

Shit, I don't know it that makes any sense.

Okay, let me summarize.

You lost your sweetheart, and know you've forgotten how to introduce yourself.

Yes?

😦

why do women do this more than men?

Pretty much, Kristov

For real Kaitsar, strangely tho, when people heard we had broken up, the first thought they had was that I had screwed up

Imagine their shock.mp3

I'll pray for you.

Are you in an active, young parish?

There are a few people around my age there

But I'm pretty new there

Well, best I can give you is this: get involved in the parish, get involved in the community. You'll have to introduce yourself to people you work with. Stick around after Mass. It helps that you're new, because that's a way of introducing yourself: "Hi, I'm Luiz, I'm new here." And then say something about the parish.

Of course, take this with a grain of salt. I don't currently have a girlfriend, and I never have had one. But I've talked to lots of girls my age, so there you have it.

I really am grateful for prayers btw, thank you

I guess there's no other way to do it other than putting myself in that situation huh. Damn I forgot how awckward I was lol

One thing I can tell you for certain: listen to her. Whoever she is. Don't always talk about yourself.

Hopefully you know that already, just thought I'd make sure.

people love to talk about themselves

always find something to ask them about themselves from what they say

their interests, their experiences, etc

Guys you are being awesome with your support, hope you know that

I do now.

It's what we're here for. Making sure no one falls into despair.

Whether the reason is Communist atrocities, the abortion referendum in Ireland, or losing a girlfriend.

This was killing me inside. I get looks and smiles from time to time but then I just look away and drown in my own awckwardness because I forgot how to act

@Luiz Tinoco message me anytime you want advice socializing or interacting

i'll help if I can

Will take a walk tomorrow morning trying to remember your tips guys, will update wether I made it screwed up again

Thank you, Gaius, I will surelly do, just have to keep this conversation in mind when the chance appears
