Reply #16: Wow. They still make you sleep separately?

That's messed up. You're married, so you should be in the same bed. Would he blow up if you got a hotel room while you were visiting?

My hubby was fourth generation Nazarene, which may not sound like much, but the church has only been around since 1908, so it's something to his family. We decided to convert to the Eastern Orthodox Church before we got married but kept that a secret until after we were good and married, knowing how his mom would blow a gasket, and she did. *sigh*

Give your hubby a hug from me. Growing up Nazarene when you're different at all is freakin' difficult. I came from a divorced family situation, and my stepmom mentally abused me, and my pastor told me that I had to submit to her and honor her no matter what, even if it hurt me. That's about when I started souring on the church. Doing mission work with the church in college sealed it. Bunch of closeted bigots.
