I've been dating caitlin for about 6 months now. one more month and she will have matched my first girlfriends time spent with me. I'm not sure how i feel about that. I've decided that i don't like people really. I don't get along with many of them. Those I do I don't stay in contact with. But honestly, after 6 months of being with one person, I'm

if there is nothing to enforece your unitariansim, it will slowly fade away (unless youre me, and explode with unitarianism ALL THE TIME) youre in boston, you have a variety of churches, temples, etcto choose from. visit a few, and see what interests you. if you find a good unitarian church, great, if not, find something else.
and, i wish i could help you with your girlfriend, but i cant. i can just tell you that i love you and miss you.
and i know that doesnt help you in the least.
and i hope my first advice helped, at least a litt.e

you know, converting to christianity won't make you belief things blindly or stop thinking.

go to the sacred space. go to a uu church...not on sunday morning, i think that would be asking too much (and another reason not to be a christian), but boston has soulful sundown and other young adult themed worship stuff going on.

you're getting antsy, and i'm not sure what the best solution is. you found out you get a spring break, right? go somewhere, getting away for a bit. maybe that'll help.

Lately I have been moving a little away from UUism myself. I still consider myself a UU, but I have gotten engaged in conversations with a lot of people who are spiritual, but have no ties to one specific religion. I think that our personal spirituality matters much more than any religion matters.

I would advise hitting up some books. Religion, philosophy, teachings, whatever interests you, find out all about it. There are so many interesting things out there. And of course, have a conversation about what you read. Engaging the mind is what is so great about spirituality, in my opinion, not blind belief.

i agree what all my lovely UU friends have said above. it's you brian, you're what matters-- i don't think that converting to another religion will make you believe- you'll just get angry with a dogma you can't conform with.

about caitlin. you care about her- that's obvious. everyone wants a change of scenery from time to time. and you need to make a decision. i would deal with the religion thing first. think about UUism, find a young adult group, something and when you feel stable about that- decide about caitlin. i wouldn't want you to end something when the actual needing for change is rooted in something else.

and when's your spring break? why NOT come visit? get away from boston. chill here- it would actually do you good (not to mention i miss you).

love always.
