Well, your suggestion will not work. Leave it to me to point out the obvious.

Well Emma, let me try one more approach. "Yea, I say unto thee..... get on the tractor with him, ask him how much it cost, where did he get it, ask him if he loves it more than he loves you, ask him if you got a green dress would it make him like you any better, tell him it's too loud, and besides that it's rough to ride on, it smells like diesel, (and just remind him that you never smelled like that), ..... at this point start over and keep this going for hours and let him know that you're gonna be right there on the seat with him every hour of the day, (because it's God's will) and I promise you he will get rid of the tractor faster than you think! Remember, be at your best form in "nagging!" It'll work!!! Praise God!"

Re: My Husband Has a Lust Problem
Well, I have other things to do. I guess I should have known that a bunch of unholy people would not have any answers for me. My husband is on a path of the lust of the flesh, lusting after things that are against the ordnung. If only he would settle for steel tires and not so many attachments. I fear he is on the grave path to hell and will be in the ban soon. The only right thing is the very thing I cannot do.....make him stop lusting. He takes it so lightly and says the church should not make rules that keep people from making their work easier. But I know he is really just full of lusts and evil desires and will not repent. Or it doesn't seem like he will repent. I will keep praying. I will tell all the women in my church to pray about this. My husband says I gossip about him to anyone who will listen but he just doesn't want people to know his sinful lusts as if I should keep it all covered up. They are all watching to see what he will do next. He should feel some responsibility. Please keep us in prayer.
Your sister in Christ,
Emma

Now, now (and that's not N.O.W) Sister Emma. It is okay for me to call you Sister, isn't it? You're just like some other posters on AFF. You don't listen to the "good words" that are given to you on AFF. You never answer the questions asked of you. You just go off rambling about "holy people" and the lustful thoughts of your husband. That doesn't solve the problem.
I think maybe, if you would humble yourself and pray, you would find it was more your problem and your fault than his. You know, much more is required of the woman than the man. That's just the way it is! Have you ever considered it might be the way you look? I know that hurts, but your big holy shoulders can take it. I am praying for your husband and hope he makes it okay!

How can it be my fault? I don't make the rules. The bishop reads them straight out of the Bible.

Help! Somebody help! This Sista' won't listen! I started out with "Yea, I say unto thee!" and she still won't listen.
Sister Emma, you are not suppose to ask questions! Haven't you learned that yet! Just be humble.... say "Yes Sir" often and followed behind the John Deer and be proud of your lustful husband. At least he is being himself! I'm sorry, I've got to go now. My tractor needs my attention. I'm not as lustful as your husband. Mine is not a John Deere! That's a little too uppity uppity for me. I'm humble and proud of it and that's why I can give you such great advice! God bless my humility!

Re: My Husband Has a Lust Problem
I'm leaving now. I am done with this conversation. I am going to go see my bishop who will tell me that my husband needs to repent and that I am right and that he will put my husband in the ban if he buys the tractor. I will not go against God and support my husband in this thing. Telling me to allow my husband the lusts of his heart.....what do I expect here on AFF anyway?

Only mature adults should attempt to view these:

Please help me know how to handle this.
