Avoiding religious girls on cold approaches...

[josekortez]

Hey there, guys. A lot of you talk about being anxious to cold-approach women because you're nervous about what they might think or say if you do. I have to say that I encountered another thing that makes me extremely uncomfortable - approaching girls who try to spout religion when you approach them.

The other night I was in Target, and I spoke to this girl who was an HB7 (I'm being pretty damn liberal here). She said that she would be more comfortable doing e-mail than phone, which is fine, but when she did e-mail me the other day, she sent the following religious message to my work e-mail:

(The names in question have been changed, except the Biblical ones.)

Hi,

I hope you are doing well. I bet you didn't think you would "hear" from me. I enjoyed our conversation the other night. You seem like a nice person, who's sociable, ambitious, and insightful. To be honest with you I was not sure whether to contact you. I am interested in someone else and I did not want to lead you on. But, I kept thinking about some of the things we talked about and I couldn't shake the feeling that our meeting was not accidental. I believe God set it up because there's something you should know.

I graduated last May with a B. A. in Social Work. I knew that was exactly what I was supposed to do. I spent almost a whole year looking for a job. Unfortunately, I could not find one. I was frustrated and depressed. Have you ever felt that way? Why wasn't I where I thought I should be?

There's a very simple answer to this. I had made my own way, my own plan of what I was going to do, but it was not what God wanted for me. You see, <josekortez>, I am telling you all this because God has a purpose for my life and He has one for you too. Do you know that?

You told me that you're in a job that you don't particularly like. It is not what you went to school for. You sound so much like everyone else our age (including myself). We went to college, got degrees, did well for ourselves...and now what?

The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:11, "'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and NOT to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Please hear me out. I am not trying to argue religion and I hope I don't seem pushy. I just care about people. I speak to total strangers because I care. I am writing now because I care. I don't know what your beliefs are and right now it does not matter much. God wants you to know that He has an excellent plan for your life, a plan to give you hope and make you prosperous.

If you want it, it's yours. The way to it is through Jesus Christ. Jesus says, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)

So if you want this awesome plan God has for you all you have to do is ask Jesus to come into you life and forgive your sins, and begin trusting Him. Once you do that you're on your way, or , better yet, God's way. I can't promise you it will be easy, BUT, it will be better than you would have imagined.

Thank you for reading this and sticking it out with me. I tried to be brief. I know it's a little long but I appreciate you listening to me. I want to leave you with a few verses to look up (if you don't mind). I don't know if you have a Bible but you can look these up online at www.bible.com

Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Rom 5:8, Rom 10:9 and 10
2Corinthians 5:17 and Proverbs 3:5-6

I would be happy to answer any questions you may have, so feel free to reply. Thanks again for listening.

Cordially yours,
*****

I have to say, guys, this kind of stuff makes me extremely uncomfortable and I might even take a "Don Juan hiatus" because of it...

Thats really interesting, thanks for sharing.

Im personally a christian but id never spray bible verses at a stranger.

I guess like how some men approach people with the prospect of romance, some religious ladies interact with the prospect of evangelising.

peace

i agree, I go to church every sunday, and have only talked religion twice in the past 6 years. And that wasn't even brought up by me.

Oh well, this situation may be creepy, but it seemed like the girl genuinely cared what happened to you, even if it was misguided.

 

[KingPinp]

Email her back, tell her you need her help wresting a snake in your room. Tell her you think it might be the devil and that you need specialized help of a true christian. When she comes over, stick a ring on her tell her ur married and **** her. After you **** her, tell her you are jewish.

Then drive her to the abortion clinic.

 

[Tazman]

The sad part is that the only "useful" information she gave you was this:

I am interested in someone else and I did not want to lead you on.

She could've easily said this when she talked with you in person. Although emailed response is "religious," it still falls under what I'd call a "soft rejection."

 

[bbestar]

This girl has a point..


Arent we all sinners...


Do you feel that there is a emptiness in your life... Something that bothers you.

Christianity is not a religion... not a religion..
Its a personal relationship..


anyway... Depending on this girl.. This is a type of Girl for marriage... May not mess around.. but no one is perfect...

like me this girl is an old fashion sinner..

a sinner saved by grace.

 

[TheSplat]

Dude, she's just sharing her philosophy. It's actually kind of endearing.

 

[ImtheOne]

Just get rid of her

I would never talk to anyone that religious

 

[MacDiddy]

Running normal game on a christian chick will still work!!!

 

[manuva]

I have no problem with anyone being religious until they start imposing it on me. Then it's highway time if they're a chick, and "shut-the-fukk-up", fist-to-the-face time if they're a guy.


I consider it arrogant and very ignorant of people to start hurling their religion at others like those others should suddenly care. Chill the fukk out, and accept that different people believe and have a right to believe in whatever they like, and just because you believe in some weird book written about events 400 years after they happened by people who weren't even there, doesn't mean that they should too.

 

[diplomatic_lies]

Tell her Satan came to you in a vision, gave you a disease of the pen1s, and the only way to cure it is to have sex.

 

[MercutioTHEGREAT]

hahahaha dayum 1ST OF ALL ANY CHICK WHO SAYS SHE WOULD RATHER EMAIL THAN TALK IS GETTING A -1 IN POINTS...THEN SAYS SHE ISN'T PUSHY THEN THROWS THE JOHN 14:6 AT YOU GET'S ANOTHER -1 SO YOUR LOOKING AT A 5 OVERALL your gettin nothing from her lose her email address and tell her 1thess 5:21 "TEST ALL THINGS; and 5:1 "concernng the times i have no need to write to you" (prude byatch)

I recently ran into some Mormons in a parking garage while picking up my car.
Two squeaky-clean guys, two rather nice looking young women.
It occurred to me that the women are probably used as a way to recruit men...
think about it - they strike up a convo with a guy, and play it like they're interested... their male target is never sure if she's interested in him for dating or for religious gatherings. Probably refuses a regular date, instead insists on joining the "group" first.

 

[spider_007]

CLOSE THE THREAD->Religion....

Unless your planing on going to church every day, and put up with her non stop "I'm trying to save you" crap, just so you can be with a gurl that probably won't give you sex, feel free.

 

[zzirf25]

It all depends on what ur looking for. If you just want sex, then NEXT her cuz she ain't givin it to ya. Now if you are looking for a LTR, then by all means pursue her. Some on here may dissagree with what I am saying but hear me out for a second. You will NEVER EVER have to worry about her fvcking around on you and she will be less prone to play btchy mindgames. Also, I know alot of guys on here are saying that you won't wanna listen to all of the religion talk. But think about it like this, at first she will talk about her religion alot, but if you take the time to actually listen, then you will start to believe in what you she is saying. In believing this, it will help to better you as a person(cuz aren't we here to serve God anyways ) And you will also have a great girlfriend who you will know truely care about you. But like I said that is only if you are looking for a LTR. If you just want sex, then move on to the next target because all that would come out of trying to fvck this girl is you getting rejected and hurting her feelings because she was hoping that you were different than other guys who just wanted sex. Hope I helped.

The minute I hear any girl bring up god or jesus without being prompted as part of a religious discussion, she's gone.

Period. End of story.

I find religious people to be boring and depressing people. I personally think it is a sign of mental disease to derrive happiness or contentment from something that you cannot prove or have any firsthand knowledge or experince of. They likely will not put out, they're looking to marry immediately, and my own beliefs in the idiocy of religion (God is an imaginary friend for adults) will undoubtedly clash with their indoctrinated thinking at some point.

If you find them worthwhile or your beliefs allign with theirs go for it. But otherwise, just stay away until she grows up enough to stop needing religion as a crutch in her life.

There is a fine line between holding your own views and pure, blatant, offensive bigotry.

You just spat on that line, stomped on it, and crossed it. Try to show just a little respect for someone else's views.
