Only issue is that I don't think the Romans had any record of his execution or criminal trial. So I don't know.

How many crucifixions do you think happened that year? How many of the killed people can you name? Going that far into the past is going to have a lot of "maybes, we're not 100% sure." Most records aren't kept.

Its just hard for me to see me removing those relationships for someone whod be just a girlfriend.

If a friend said they wanted to marry person X but person X said they would not be willing to make any sacrifices prior to marriage but then they'd be totally committed once the marriage started, I would advise the friend to not get married to that person. You're too stuck on labels. It was hard to see yourself removing those relationships for her.

gamepimp12 posted...
early 20s when we starting fooling around. Mid 20s now.

I was extremely cautious about grooming her and it was something I tried to avoid. I kept alot of my opinions about decisions she made and things she wanted to do with her life to myself and not to influence her.

Advice is fine. I was worried about the line of "she can date but I was always expecting her to keep coming back to me."

I wanted to marry that woman. I just didnt think she was close to being ready, and she agreed with that assumption. I wanted her to get settled into her career, and figure out who she wanted to be.

Then you should've been ready for a committed relationship with her. Whether or not she was ready is her decision. If she was too young to make that decision when you met her then it sounds like grooming. If she was mid-twenties then she was not too young to make that decision.

It makes sense for a Q&A forum. I have a question, up vote the best answer, then when someone new has that question, the first response they see is also likely to be the most helpful.

But here I come for a conversation. The upvoting/downvoting fractures the conversation, makes it more about having the best one-liner to the original post than actually having a back and forth.

instead of funneling all politics to CE and locking it, you should have just funneled them to 261 and locked that.

that makes too much sense, though

That would've been so much preferable and I say this as a 261 refugee.

Theres more to it than that. When womens soccer blew up in popularity and became more popular than the men, that didnt give them a pay raise until there were complaints. Right now womens basketball is having a moment but that increase popularity is just going to line owners pockets unless theres similar attention brought to the issue.

what was the down side of the family moving to a new house so the dad can live closer to his new job?

I got the impression they'd be moving several hours away from where they currently live. See family a lot less - Chilli's dad has had some health issues, Bandit's mom helps with baby sitting periodically, Cousins will go from childhood friends to someone they see once a year.

tankboy posted...
Also, did Bandit have to back out of an accepted job offer (and had he already quit his old job, or was he backing out of a transfer)? Did they have to back out of the purchase of their new house? Had they already committed to renting storage until the new house was ready? Adulting is hard and decisions have consequences!

The conversation between Bandit and Rad implied to me that Bandit would have to look for a new job if they stayed and Bandit was very worried about that uncertainty.

No one ever thinks of themselves as rich because all but the richest 3 people can think of someone order of magnitudes better off so comparatively it doesn't feel like enough.

So many little things built up this episode it would have been perfect as the finale. The theme that all of the little things throughout your life put you on the path you should be on is a really beautiful message and something I've certainly thought about before.

That's right. I missed that one. They had so many other tie ins. Seeing Chilli's sister again was a big moment!
