Frustrations!
How do you deal with things that go against what you believe in? Not just religiously, but in life in general?
Earlier this year i found out that one of my closest friends is gay. To make things worse, we actually dated for a while. But he says that he thought that i was the one who would have been able to "change" him. He's also a Christian, and that's where i struggle. My initial reaction was to be extremely mad with him, being a Chrisitian i thought he should have known better. He's had two "partners" since i found out. Now, he's a really great guy, and i still love him for who he is. But i struggle with it. I think what annoys me more, is the fact that he used to be a strong Christian. Now, he hardly ever goes to church, and is really back-sliding.
Each of us has different views on everything, just this is one thing that i really am struggling with. Especially since he called me the other night, which is when i found out about his new "partner". I'm glad he's happy, but i worry about him so much...
