So. I don't usually comment on the personal posts, but this one kind of pissed me off. This is what I get from this: "I don't like romance as a genre, to the point where I have to be told about famous films that are commonly known to most people. But here's half a dozen films I like that I find romantic that I assume other people don't since they're not in the genre. Also the two romantic comedies I do like just happen to be the ones mentioned least on my facebook post. Have you noticed how unusual I am yet?" "My marriage is perfect and wonderful, so much so that I have to post a disclaimer to keep the average reader from taking it as a template for True Love. But since other people often have wonderful marriages, let me tell you about how my additional romantic/sexual relationships are also perfect because I assume other people don't have those. Have you noticed how unusual I am yet?"
As a Pagan, I find her nonsense about Deity *making* her do something pretty insulting. Their relationship with us is more like that between parents and adult children; They give advice and may make suggestions but They don't make you do things :/ What the hell would free will be worth then? Does this woman ever make a decision and stand by it, or is her life a series of events pawned off to other sources?
