Sleeping Together in Bed

[Timothy]

Someone I work with, who says she is a Christian, says the Bible doesn't say she can't sleep in bed together with her boyfriend. She says they just can't have sex together ...

What say ye?

She's right, but it's not generally wise practice.

She is technically correct. It doesn't actually say they can't have sex either.

Neither is, as a married man, discussing the sex life of single women with them.

Of course.  Your female friend simply brought up the ethics of sleeping with her boyfriend by herself out of the blue devoid of any context of you discussing her sex life.  Nobody really buys that, BTW.

I say your friend is really naive and stupid if she really believes that rubbish.

Eavesdropping Timothy?? Shame on you! Shame, shame, shame!!

Just kidding my friend. Sometimes you can't help but overhear what others are talking about, especially if they are talking loud.

At one of the hotels I worked at, we had a couple of associates that talked rather loudly. Sometimes if one, or both were working, they would discuss things that shouldn't be talked about at the front desk of a hotel. One more than one occasion, the GM would be standing around the corner listening in. When he had heard enough, he would pull one (or both of them) aside and give them quite a lecture. IIRC, it ended in a write-up a time or two.

True, but like I told the young guy who was living with his girlfriend, "It ain't too smart if you're a Christian and care about sexual purity."

Sleeping together without having sex? Sounds like a lot of married couples.



What if it were two guys or two girls sleeping together and let's assume they are "gay" but they don't do anything. Would it be ok for them? Remember they are not doing any thing. Or what if one was gay and the other was straight - opposite sex? Would it be okay then?

I don't know about all that, brianb, but I will tell you a true story...

I went on an overnight camping trip with a large group of friends.  At the end of the day, many of the people decided to go home.  There I was, the only female with 6 guys (1 was my cousin) in a motor home.  I honestly don't know how the sleeping arrangements worked out the way they did, but I ended up in a double bed with a true gentleman.  We were both embarrassed about the arrangements, because we were not even dating, although we did "have eyes" for each other.  We decided to sleep head to feet.

In the middle of the night, we both woke up freezing...the AC was set to "arctic blast".  So we went outside to warm up...and ended up talking the rest of the night away...and the rest of the story?  We were married for 27 years, until he passed away.  8)

"I did not, have sexual relations, with that woman".


"What is the definition of "is""?


Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

That is pretty much what I said.  Its pretty stupid to sleep with a woman you love and expect that you will be able to keep it platonic.

We agree?... stop the presses.

lol, loved Sanford and Son, especially the white cops.

 

[JrChurch]

Would she go on a business trip with a married man and sleep in the same bed with him?  What a nut.
I know, I know...I am such a legalist.
