This is sort of a shout out type of entry today, for all the people here, who make AF a welcoming place...even for spiritual people...even for theists. There are of course a few exceptions, lol but, overall, this place is inclusive. Of course, as long as everyone is respectful, it seems to flow well. I've been on other sites, and it's just not there. There seems to be this awkward competition going on among its members, trying to one up each other or out do each other...with the next witty comment. And it's really REALLY refreshing to see people on this site who respect their marriages, and the marriages of others. I'm not a prude, we can all flirt innocently on here, and it's in good fun, but dayum, there are married people on the internet who just clearly have no respect for their partners. I'm often shocked to learn about people who are actually married, because that's how ridiculous they flirt. I can't imagine being their spouse or partner. If you don't love your spouse, or they're not having sex with you, whatever it may be...GET OUT. Don't cheat, and disrespect her/him, and carry on like you're single. And then, they try to play their game on me and I'm actually happily married...newly married, and happy...and they don't like my advice.
Again, I'm not a prude, but ...ugh.
I simply don't see that shit going on, here. I don't know every single person here of course, but just out in the open forums? Seems like the married peeps here talk positively about their spouses...at least, bring them up in conversation and not in negative ways. It's nice to see people on this site, with a different outlook on marriage.
I guess this is why atheist relationships/marriages, tend to last longer than their theist counterparts. All things considered. Obviously, we all know atheists who get divorced, etc, but not like what I've seen IRL, and online. So, I like it here, is what I'm trying to say. The grass is not greener anywhere else.
