re: NY Post: Christian couple's "rules" for their marriage spark backlash

That either (or both) felt the need for these rules screams some level of insecurity by one or both of them.

My wife and I have friends of the opposing sex but we're both responsible enough to know where the edge of that slippery slope is and value one another enough to always stay well away from that edge. This also applies to texting, being in a room alone with a member of the opposite sex, etc.

That's called "respect" and "trust".
