Why is he a hypocrite for not wanting to date a former drug addict stripper? You even said he has nothing to forgive her for, so he's not being hypocritical based on Christians forgiving

Why does he have to forgive her? She did it before she knew him. And IF it comes down to forgiveness? Sure. Forgive her. But why should he get grief from you for not wanting to be married to a former stripper/drug addict?

Can he forgive her for her shortcomings in the past and still not pursue a relationship with her?

He's judging her bc of the things she did earlier in her life......and this is the only reason he's not dating her

Agree.

Also agree that he may want to move on because he feels like he would otherwise be disrespecting late wife.

This was not a one-time mistake/lapse kind of thing that qualifies for "forgiveness." He either doesn't care about her past or he does. That's his option and OP-mcjudgyface should quit throwing stones while living in a glass house.

think "judging" is being misused, at least as far as him judging her, probably more like, in his judgement, probably not wise to get serious with someone with that much baggage and potential downside

How do you know he's judging her? Maybe he doesn't think less of her as a person, but he just has a stance about not dating former sex workers

I don't understand. You don't mention about him being some preachy person about forgiveness...Also, what is he supposed to forgive her for? She didn't do anything to him. It's a personal choice of his to continue to pursue a relationship with somebody who has some serious baggage. This has nothing to do with faith and everything to do with facts and statistics. Would you want to get involved with someone with a troubled past where there may be a good chance that this person's problems from the past may resurface? I sure wouldn't.

Because God won't have to put up with her potential relapse and the character traits that lead her to such poor decisions. You can forgive but still not want to stay involved. You're friend's choice is not unwise.

He doesn't have to forgive her. But it is his god given right to uphold his standards and not have an ex-stripper as a significant other who will be bumpin and grindin all over the geezers at the old folks home

She doesn't have anything for him to forgive. She never did anything to him, if I read the OP correctly. He just can't get over something she may have done before they ever met.

Now, if he decides they're not compatible, no harm no foul. But it sounds like he's being all judgey, which is pretty much contraindicated in his chosen belief system.


I agree with all of this...was just responding to his idea that because God forgave, his friend should forgive.

He can forgive her for her past. Doesn't mean he has to get serious with her. Your stance is fricking stupid.
