In this current culture we both know how the story ends. It's a change in the culture that I am trying to bring about. Care to join in that effort?

In this current culture we both know how the story ends.

I want you to finish the story the way YOU think it should end. What does Sally say? Then what does Charles say?

[jlisenbe]

So you're asking how I would counsel those two? Don't allow yourself to get to that place. If you do, the result will be fairly predictable.

"Sally, get dressed again as rapidly as possible. You take all the risk UNTIL you have a ring (signifying commitment) on your finger. Bottom line is to keep your pants on at all times. It's hard to get into too much trouble with your pants on."

"Charles, if you love this girl, then do the right thing. Don't put her at risk. If you do, then your love is just a mirage."

To do otherwise is stupid. It's the message our culture has chosen to ignore. So again, do you want to change the culture?

*sigh* You're supposed to finish the story, not counsel them. What would each say to the other?

[jlisenbe]

What would they say? I don't know. You also didn't write any dialogue in your opening act. What would they do? At that point, having gone that far, they would likely make a mistake.

What's your point?
