your q’s are always so good and this is the lamest answer i have ever given..sorry big guy
1 he moved
2 she moved
3 I moved on…
LOL

1. I became pregnant.
2. I’m a loner, Uncle Wayne, I don’t really have any friends except for one good one. We’ll always be close, and I met him in this forum. Odd, isn’t it?
3. I became an atheist when I started to see contradictions in the way I had always worshiped, and the way in which my step-family worshiped. These questions were never answered to my satisfaction, so I began to question even more. One thing led to another, I guess.
4. Oh I’ve never had a credit card! If I can’t buy it outright then I don’t need it.

1. Hmm that was a while ago. He had violent tendencies, and I decided that was not what I was going to saddle myself with for the rest of my life. Have been happily married (to someone else) for 16 yrs.
2. LOL.. this one is good, and relevant. Her son (9) asked my son (7) if he believed in god. My son said he didn’t know. Her son kicked mine out of his room, told him he did not want someone in his room who was going to hell. I calmly went upstairs and suggested perhaps they move on to another topic and just play. (I should probably add here that they were just kids, and this was not an issue for me)
Her husband ordered me out of his house for “disagreeing with the way he was raising his son.” While he was ranting at me, my “friend” sat there like a terrified mouse. We tried to remain friends, but it left a nasty taste in my mouth. I ended the friendship. This was one year ago next month.
3.A brief episode of Catholicism, from the age of 7-9… my mother never forced it and I never believed.
4. I hate credit cards :p Paid them all off last year, and they remain unused.

1. I got pregnant and refused to get an abortion so he left me.
2. She stopped talking to me because she blamed me for hooking her and her x up.
3. They started telling people not to speak to anyone outside the church and you weren’t allowed to date outside the church. It was very odd I was 10 years old and it was a full gospel church that was turning into a cult literally. How ever i was pretty much an Atheist before I stopped attending this church I only went because I was forced.

1. Your last relationship with a mate.
I divorced my ex husband (not my sons father) because he hit my son (then 5) knocking him into a wall and called him a spoiled bastard.. My son was jumping up and down excited because my father had told him he was taking him to Disneyland moments before during a telephone conversation.. My ex-husband was in bed (it was nearly noon) and thought my son should have been quiet instead of excited..
Yup he was definately a winner, the marriage lasted 364 days before the divorce was final..
2. Your last relationship with a friend.
The last friend I stopped being friends with was over my wedding to my current husband, she agreed to be the matron of honor along with her daughter being a flower girl.. After buying her dress etc. and making her daughter dress (Daisy Kingdom Pattern never again) She backed out of it hours before hand by simply not showing up to get thier hair and nails done.. “We were shopping and having lunch for a mommy daughter date. Isn’t that sweet” (her exact words when she finally showed at the reception)
My older sister filled in at the last moment after she and my older brother ran to the mall and bought an appropriate dress 1 hour before the ceremony.. (Should have chosen my sister in the first place)
The original MoH and her daughter arrived at the reception 30 minutes before it’s scheduled end and demanded the gold necklace, ring, bracelet, and anklet sets I had purchased for each of them.. (Needless to say the sets went to my older sister and my older brothers wife as they are the ones who deserved them)
I decided I didn’t need someone so self-centered and rude in my life.. I stopped all contact and have only seen her twice since the wedding both times she made comments regarding “My jewelery you gave to someone else.” and “You deserved for me to back out, I told you I didn’t like the shoes and dress you picked out, you were BRIDEZILLA!!!” (I didn’t pick out her shoes or dress.. I chose colors peach and teal and asked her to choose a semi-formal to formal dress in peach or teal as well as shoes to match in whatever style she would feel comfortable standing in for a couple hours… seems to me that was completely non-bridezillaish..)
Yup it still amazes me how she could completely twist events in her head.. Yes I still carry some hard feelings toward her even after 10.75 years..
3. Your last relationship with a Church or a Religion.
After years of attending church with my parents and not believing a word of the docterine and having tons of questions no one had the answer to.. I stopped going quietly… My parents questioned my choice at first but soon accepted it.. Things have been peaceful since..
I never held a grudge or bad feeling toward the people, I simply didn’t agree with the docterine..
4. Your relationship with a credit card ?
My credit cards are platinum you don’t break off relationships with platinum LOL
But seriously I broke off a relationship with my American Express because it’s interest rate was too demanding and I think it was having an affair with my Diners Club Card.. I kept finding American restuarant coupons in my purse…

1. - It’s still going strong
2. - This particular friend said that I lied (when I didn’t) and cannot reconcile herself to her own lie. I have forgiven her, but she will not contact me. It’s sad, because our children were friends too - and her children will barely look at my children (we live a few houses apart).
3. - Catholic religion. I was born and raised into the Catholic church, but fell away because essentially my mother stopped attending. In highschool i had a bit of a revival, but had far too many questions that were unanswered so I dropped it completely until I met Christ personally in 1987.
blessings Uncle (((((((hugs))))))
EDIT:
4. - credit cards are going strong too, although I cut up my master card because they wouldn’t set up a “no fee” account, which i think is a sin…..
LOL
and what’s with the thumbs down Uncle - have you picked up a troll??
(****shifty eyes*****)
EDIT 2: I think the troll belongs to me - I’m the only one with the thumbs down

1. Hasn’t happened. I’ve been married to the same guy for 31 years, and I’ll be dipped if I go through the hassle of housebreaking another husband, not at my age!
2. The friendship died a long, slow death. It was obvious that we’d outgrown the things that brought us together as friends in the first place, but no one wanted to be the first to let go. I finally made the decision to end the friendship.
3. Against my better judgement, I started going to church with friends. I was never comfortable at that particular church because it was nothing but politics and infighting. My friends’ marriage split up, they ended up going to different churches, and I got the heck out of Dodge while the getting was good.
4. See #1 — hasn’t happened yet. They’re just so fond of me that they won’t let me go.

1- She was way younger than me. It got old.
2- Moved away, grew apart. It wasn’t really a split, just don’t here from them anymore.
3- I figured out that it was ridiculous.
Added: Do the two guys above me know each other?

1. It was an unhealthy relationship. It lasted three and a half years, and it should have lasted a summer.
2. My friend, or actually my boyfriend’s best friend who I had began to think of as my friend, ended his friendships with us over disappointment and hurt. Basically, we did things he considered hurtful, and he feels that no friends should ever hurt each other, even by accident. I say he’s unrealistic, knew what he was getting into, didn’t live up to his end of the bargain, and ended two friendships without even so much as a discussion about it. So, not much of a friend to begin with.
3. Um . . . never really had one. I can safely say that I don’t remember a time when I ever subscribed to any religion.
4. Credit card . . . let’s not go there.

1. She slept with my best friend
2. He slept with my girlfriend
3. They lost focus

1) My wife.
We had irreconcilable differences:
— I wanted the freedom to be able to go hang out with my friends whenever I wanted to…
…and she wanted me to stop breathing.
-(there was simply NO compromising with that woman)-
2) He found a better friend in The Reaper.
[Nick,...
I don't know why you did it, -and I guess it doesn't really matter much now....
...but just know that I love you, man, --- and I miss you...
Requiescat In Pace, my good friend...]
3) It still didn’t give me what I needed spiritually.
4) See #1…

1. I fell in love with someone else. That someone else is now my husband. Long story short.
2. It was a couple. They were childish and got mad over stupid stuff, and didn’t have the maturity to just TALK to us about it.
3. Hmm…technically, I was last agnostic…and I just found enough evidence to convince me fully.
4. Well, the only credit cards I have are military Star cards, and I have no issues with them whatsoever. I don’t like credit cards. They scare me.

Neither of the 3 recently.
The only relation that recent end was the one with the Visa card.

1. He said he was looking after my Cadillac, but had it towed to a scrapyard. I rescued the car and dumped him. You don’t do that to a ‘77 Coupe de Ville.
2. Wow, I can’t remember. My relationships with friends tend to keep going. Moving away, that’s the only thing that does it.
3. I realized that I didn’t believe, and learned that it was ok not to believe.

1. Immaturity. I was growing faster than he was and he “never left home.” I am still married to him, but the “old man” is now dead and the “new man” came forth from rebirth under the blood of Jesus.
2. Beliefs. I was moving away from worldly activities and towards Christ. We’re still great friends but on separate pages now.
3. Hunger for God. Our faith was dead until we encountered the Holy Ghost. What a blessing!
{{{HUGS}}}
EDIT: Ramjet - I empathize with you, friend! You’ll always get a thumbs up from me ;^D.

I lost my last relationship with a girlfriend because of my cheating. I’ve been with my current girlfriend close to 9 years, and the relationship is still holding on, even though I’ve had my indiscretions during its run, also. My last relationship with a friend broke up because I flirted too strongly with his girlfriend. My last relationship with religion ended when I went to university and saw that faith was no substitute for education.

he decided that he wanted to be with another girl that he works with,and kicked me out for no reason

1. Mate realized that I had another relationship.
2. Totally forgotten that my new girlfriend was his girlfriend.
3. After I read Genesis.

2. She was totally nuts.

1. There wasn’t honesty from him, and eventually he couldn’t lie to me or to himself any longer. It wasn’t one major issue. It was everything. Things he liked and didn’t like. Political views. Everything.
2. Conflicting differences that they weren’t willing to talk out. We conflicted religiously, politically. They thought that everything bad was of the Devil and didn’t like it when I voiced my opinion. They wanted me to call and to commit, but didn’t realize that relationships work both ways.
3. I didn’t agree with them, and refused to be brainwashed. I can’t believe everyone who doesn’t believe one way goes to Hell. It’s that simple.

I met my husband while dating someone else and fell head over heels. I was 15 at the time.
We went camping with another couple and they had a few too many drinks. (We weren’t bothered, we were all cutting up and having a good time playing cards, music; but my husband and I had only a couple of drinks so we were still thinking.;) They walked to the back of the camper unexpectedly in the MIDDLE of a card game and proceeded to have obvious sex. We were uncomfortable, especially since it was still cold and they had the blankets; but we went to sleep anyway. The next morning she was very uncomfortable (her husband thought it was funny). We saw them twice more and they just stopped returning our calls or coming by. We were used to seeing each other just about every weekend and it broke my heart that something so stupid came between us.
I am a faithful Christian, but I left my last church because the Pastor shared a personal experience about my husband with my husband’s boss. It was a private matter from his youth and it ultimately cost him his job. I was very angry and the Pastor never apologized. His stance was that he felt I should divorce my husband. He obviously was confused about some things and I did not have any confidence in his abilities to lead a church.

was with a male…he claimed to have been a christian…i am christian. he cheated on me. we are both in the military…and he said that he couldnt handle my deployments. what kind of mess is that. anyways…sex was very important to him and i wanted to wait till marriage. oh well….his loss.

My 23 yr. marriage ending . . . The ” game ” was called on the account of neglect and condescending manner.
The last person I dated…that ended as it was discovered that the man showed to only know how to be charming and have fun. I enjoy fun…Yet he was ” thin ” in the awareness of how to have a relationship. He knew how to hug the body…yet not the soul.
In reply to your posted questions . . .
.
1) . . .Ended with mate…4 yrs. ago. Ended with someone dating…two months ago…Reasons stated above.
.
2). . .Ended with a friend . . .1 year ago because our lifestyles did not mesh anymore. Something changed in how we related in interest of common ground as I had divorced and moved out of neighborhood and she is still in that neighborhood with her husband and busy with her 3 young kids. She is very nice…yet how she related with me after my divorce shifted a bit.
.
3) . . .Ended with Religion . . .I’m now 50 and 30 years ago I found religion to be preaching sin, guilt, paying dues to get the ” brass ring “, etc. I’d see people go to church or temple and behave ‘ divine ‘…yet the days after attending church they’d behave as having a shallow mind and soul. So, I came to understanding of having a personal relationship with ” God ” the One and simply Be. No religious labels, yet my way of thinking is labeled as being Spiritual and that suits me fine. I did’nt care to be associated with religions that did right by God because of desiring to please and impress the One rather than being of good heart just because…no matter the day or week or time of day.
4) . . . With a credit card . . . Ended four years ago. Reason…A woman healing through a divorce and living independent again . . . You combine emotions of a woman with a credit card…not a good mix. So I made a conscience choice not to use credit cards…use debit card instead. I keep a responsible savings and pay cash. If I feel I might be running low in my spending fund…I slow my spending rather than charge. It’s very freeing for me. No debt.
.

Disappointment in all cases.

1.it was long distance and there was cheating on both ends.
2.i moved and she had a baby so doesnt have time anymore
3.i learned how to think for myself
