Assuming the 3 people involved are reasonable marriage material with no serious baggage (meaning no serious addictions, not a string of divorces, not terminally unemployed, or similar red flags that would preclude a healthy relationship) and assuming that the Karl/Pauline relationship is real and serious: The reality is that this is envying what someone else has (in this case envying Karl's relationship with Pauline). Actively being envious and trying to actively sabotage or take something from someone else is not the most spiritual behavior in the world. It shows a lack of spiritual integrity in my opinion. And what do you get if Pauline leaves Karl? You've now got to worry that you've got a girl friend that will leave you for a better "offer". These things are not proof that a new relationship would fail. They're just signs that two critical elements, trust and integrity, are weaker than would be desirable in a marriage partner.

If they date other people then that is not being faithful to their relationship. If they are only friends(and that does not look like the case) then they can go out with other people. But they are not married yet and if either one of them decides that they do not want to continue the relationship they can break up. It is too late after marriage.

I was told by persons that I missed the opportunities (Im still single) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically whose stance would you agree with more on the topic. Bob or Mike?This is an actual topic ive spoken with other Christians with people taking either side of the debate. What do you think? The first sin is: The man should be about doing the will of God in his life. If he was about doing that he would not be engaging in a second sin and a third, envy and lust. Much like King David who sent another to do what God had for him to be doing, this man's passion will give grief to many and maybe for generations to come. As to the three friends of job there, their opinion and gossip are also sin for them to own. The whole shadowy pictorial is one of doom and dispair without any representation of good whatsoever. Personal opinion: it is better, far better a mission, to depict the great joy that all the local body of Christ gains when a relationship matures and there is union and offspring with child dedication by the entirety of a congregation in support of the family unit with strong support for the family unit by the entirety of the local body of Christ in worship and in actions in the name of our Lord Jesus. Why show that which does not glorify God without showing what does? Edited October 17, 2017 by Neighbor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In today's culture relationships are mutually exclusive which means if she doesn't want to be in the relationship she doesn't have to be. I would assume if she's in a relationship with Carl it would be because she wants to be, and if she were to enter into another relationship without first breaking it off with him that would be cheating. And any man who is actively pursuing her while she's still in a relationship with Carl, is trying to get her to cheat. It's as simple as that.
