Celibate people have a reputation of being grumpy. Is that a false stereotype?

When does morning start, btw? When you wake up? I mean, if Saturday night gets lengthy, am I then guilty of it being morning? Are you still convinced what you are saying is biblical?

Chocolate!

I do agree. I marvel at how much effort it took to haul two full sized bathtubs out into the wilderness somewhere.

1 Now concerning the things of which you wrote to me:
It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 2 Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. 3 Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. 4 The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. 5 Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. NKJV
...

Here is how it reads in the OJB (Orthodox Jewish Bible)
1 Now, concerning the things in your iggeret, let's take up the next inyan (topic): “it is beneficial for a man not to touch an isha” [i.e., postpone the chasunoh (wedding)].2 But, because of the acts of zenut, let each Ben Adam have his own Isha, and let each Isha have her own Ba'al (Husband). 3 Let the ba'al render the conjugal choiv (debt) to his isha, and llikewise also the isha to her ba'al (husband). 4 It is not the isha who has samchut (authority) over her own body, but the ba'al (husband); likewise, also it is not the ba'al (husband) who has samchut over his own body, but the isha. 5 Do not deprive each other, unless by agreement for a set time, that you may renew zerizut (diligence) to tefillah (prayer) and again you may be together, lest Hasatan lead you into nissayon (temptation) because of your lack of shlitah atzmi (self-control).

Here is how it reads in Murdock's translation of the Syriac Bible
01 And concerning the things of which ye wrote to me, it is praiseworthy for a man not to approach a woman.
02 But, on account of whoredom, let each have his own wife and let a woman have her own husband.
03 And let the man render to his wife the kindness which is due; and so also the woman to her husband.
04 The woman is not the sovereign over her body, but her husband: so also the man is not the sovereign over his body, but the wife.
05 Therefore, deprive not one another, except when ye both consent, at the time ye devote yourselves to fasting and prayer; and return again to the same disposition, that Satan tempt you not because of the concupiscence of your body

Why don't you ask Christ how he fulfilled his celibacy, or Paul.
It's not impossible and it gets easier with time. The obvious answer is masturbation in case you didn't know. Welcome to human kind.

Love the questions. :D

I dunno the answers. I've been single for 6 years. I've done some things during that time that I wouldn't do again. Right now I'm telling God it would be nice if He would make another man from scratch cuz I doubt there's one that already exists who would take on my family...but, I would really like to try this marriage thing again....soon. And trust me, it's not the home repairs I'd like help with....
