I mean, I love her as a sister but there's a reason I skipped over her to her sister lmao, don't need no Leahs in my life

She and him beat the shit out of each other for fun, she's higher strung than a stoned harp

As much as one needs to respect the wishes of the father, she's not bound by him really. If she's going to be miserable then yea it won't be good. If they were already married I'd take another stance and say it's her duty to make him a better, more openly devout person

But they're not

And she's not obligated to do anything currently

Well, the only obligation she has is to be honest with herself and her partner

Something I love about the one I got, after a lot of heat early in the relationship we figured out how to talk to each other, but the older one's got too much pride to be open and honest with him

I wish I could just be an intermediary to keep it from getting ugly like it will be when it blows up and goes to shit

sounds like both need to change a bit

The fun of being an outside observer I suppose

It won't be fun since she's going to be your family

I'll get her to suck it up and talk to me someday, I just hope it's before she makes the wrong choice

whatever that is

That would be a good start, yes

Bright side, least she's nutty about something that matters

Matthew 18:20-27

**Matthew 18:20-27 - Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition (DRA)**

```Dust


<20> For where there are two or three gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. <21> Then came Peter unto him and said: Lord, how often shall my brother offend against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? <22> Jesus saith to him: I say not to thee, till seven times; but till seventy times seven times. <23> Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened to a king, who would take an account of his servants. <24> And when he had begun to take the account, one was brought to him, that owed him ten thousand talents. <25> And as he had not wherewith to pay it, his lord commanded that he should be sold, and his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. <26> But that servant falling down, besought him, saying: Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. <27> And the lord of that servant being moved with pity, let him go and forgave him the debt. ```

So how do you tell the difference between a true trad girl and a gold digger? My confusion comes because trad girls who want to be homemakers do need to be concerned with if the man they're courting can support them, but that can result in very similar behaviors to women who wring men for everything they're worth.

Gold diggers go after men with money

Do you have money

Yes, for rent

and food

and electricity

Yeah no

and tithing

You aren't rich

Obvious is obvious

You'll probably be fine

You know, I thought that but she heard "Studying engineering", drained me like a vampire, and left me to rot

Ooft

Women

She looked like a trad, said she wanted kids and attended Latin mass wearing a veil, but ditched me as soon as I couldn't afford to take her on dates

So how do I avoid that happening again?

Discern the Priesthood

That seems like a leap

Yeah dude, be wary of women

Just because she trad doesn't mean she good y'know?

I'm guessing the presence of vanity should be the indicator. If she's vain and prideful she's doing it for herself, humble and meek she's doing it for her children.

Good thinking

Also always go poor for a period of time earlyish in the relationship. Was a comfort to know my girl would stick with me after my last job left me broke for lack of work. Even if she does enjoy designer shit like a basic white girl, I at least know it's a hobby and she's willing to give shit up to drag me me through to the next paycheck if need be. Even if you have to fake being poor, it's a worth experience.
