Barbarabkind, there is some great advice here, I hope you listen to it.

You will never meet anyone who believes anything 100% the same as you.....60-70% is even rare, IMO. Can you both be civil, agree to disagree, or avoid the subject Entirely?
Because if he tries to convert you, the sex will go bad quick. But since he is "sinning" maybe there is hope for him?

Seems to me you know the answer. Follow your intuition.

It depends if you would be happy in the long term with a man who is incapable of truly logical thinking. If the attraction, respect, compassion and sex is great and those qualities outweigh the logic aspect, then go for it.

As you say. His cognitive dissonance is his problem. When it becomes your problem then its time to re evaluate.

I wouldn't have started anything with a believer.

Focus on your commonalities. Religion could become a wedge that divides you eventually. But why do you look for ways to sabotage what you enjoy now? Surrender to your sexual desires and merge into each other. It becomes more difficult to find men still able to perform as we age and the cougar thing is only fun for a short while. So, fill 'er up!!

Be careful. Either this man has incoherent beliefs or he tells you things he thinks you would want to hear just to placate you. So, either there is problem with insincerity or with a muddled mind.

I used to think I could look the other way about this sort of thing, but I've come to realize it eats away at you. If not you, then them. It's possible it could work out though. Sounds like you have some issues with it, I would maybe move on from this one, or just enjoy it for a little while longer until you know for sure when the right time to step out is. Either way, good luck!

You seem to be wracked with cognitive dissonance. He does as well. I'd have to ask if you are able to define your own convictions. If you feel manipulated, then I believe you have your answer.

Sex should be saved for non-believers. Personally, I would not want to be with a person that thinks I will be tortured by the creator. To him you are a sin.

It seems a big river to cross or not

Tell him you're pregnant and see what his reaction is. It will make him see how serious the situation is that he's in and come forth with some truth concerning your relationship. An open sexual relationship with a closed mind is not good for the future. Decide if he's a "toy" or not and move on with your life.

Whatever you decide. Do not live with him. You don't want to lose yourself.

He's not only hypocritical in his own mind but in body and soul. If the sex is good not a total waste of time I guess but it would have to be very good.

IS HE CONSTANTLY SAYING TO YOU "YOU ARE GOING TO HELL"? If so he is not only a believer but also an abuser.

I let people believe what the will. Just see where it goes.

I had been on and off involved somehow with a christian scientist for 16 years, I am this comet of indulgement that continues visit her planet... I never asked her leave her faith for me... never been that selfish... So...
