I do know of some people, who use christianity and religon as an "act", to appear as a "good" person.
I can give you a few examples. My friend's G/f is apparently a Christian, going to church, bible follower, and says she follows God's rules. But she lies, discriminates, hates, insults etc.
You see, I met her on a blind date. However, she ran off with my friend and now the two get on so well, near marriage status.
She actually DESPISES me. She has lied to me, slandered me, made fun of me, and made me look like an idiot. She refuses to talk to me, and wants to leave (IN A DAMN HURRY) when I see her. LOL, she goes to the same church service as my mom.
Funny way to act for such a "nice" christian girl as she wants to be seen.. Also, if you've read my "Too undatable" thread, the part about the girl I like (the goth)..these two do NOT like each other. SWEET!
But I have met her and I sort of know her. She does not appear to follow God's rules. She LIES BIG TIME, hurts others, and slanders.
?????____________________________________________________________________
Another. There is a lady who is my mate's mom. She puts on the good christian act. She comes to visit my mom and tell my mother "how good she is, and how she is such a nice person (about herself, not mom).She is nice to me when she is at my house or if I see her on the street.
But if I am at her house, she is ......well, the opposite. She always yells and ignores me, gets me to do her chores, then kicks me out. She gives my other mates dinner, but tells me to WALK home..40 minute walk. If my mate offers me a lift, she tells him NO. She is never nice..roars like an animal.
But thats not the bad part. she rings up my mates moms and slanders me, saying untruth facts. She lies to me, has stolen occasionally etc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't get it. Funny thing is, it's 99% women christians that are like that to me. Not males. Then again, I repel any female.

Is there something about you that you think women react negatively to? Disfiguring ugliness? Poor hygene? Bad reputation? Criminal record?
There has to be a unifying reason that you get these negative reactions, and I doubt it's some kind of magic anti-woman field.

I believe there is. But I don't think you'd believe it.
That is one thing that has happened since the dream. Girls liked me before that..
I definitly am not unhygenic. Bathe twice daily. Wear respectable clothes. No bad habits. Heh, around here I've seen hot girls with guy's that are fat, smelly and have their ass hanging out.
I'm not ugly that I know of. Look above. Girls prefer THAT to me. But
I should post a photo here and see what the people HERE think.
meh..
A few years back, I had my aura photo taken (you know, the aura as in colors, sposed to resemble your soul or something). Mine was dark red.
Even the guy who did it threw the pic at me and told me to go. Dark red (according to my aura knowledge) means anger, willpower. Plain red
is :Vitality ,life force, assertion, forcible active urges, stalwart brave, vengeful, virile ,passion, drive, endurance. Force of will, passion, vitality, desire, physical activity, excitability, anger, intensity of experience
passion, desire, assertion, forcible active urges, vengeful,
yep, they all describe me.
Seeing many "palm readers" and "fortune tellers"..many of these refused to see me. Buggered if I know.
Oh the one that did see me said "I have a strong negative life force"..
Oh dear.

The problem with your explanation, here, is that none of those things - dreams, auras, etc. - have a basis in fact. Oh, I mean I'm sure that you had a dream, and that your aura photo is red, but none of those things have any effect on your life. I'm certain that your aura photo has nothing to do with your troubles with women because your "aura" has nothing to do with your "soul" or whatever.
But it's possible that your "aura" represents physiological indicators of stress. You sound stressed. Do you meditate much?

Well if that is not it, then I don't have a clue what it is.
It's like..something they can sense..I dunno..
Mysteries of life..
I tried actually asking girls, and they say "No idea. Nothing wrong with you ata all."
But none of them go any further, just further away from me.
I am the Omen it seems.

SA-XHBK,
Many years ago, I experienced some similar things to those you described, and used them as the basis for some prayer experiments. I used the Bible as a source of materials and methods, got prayers to try from there, and prayed, or didn't pray, for various encounters. The whole experience convinced me that the world is haunted, and that the haunts, or demons, were obsessive, nasty buggers. They'd get a bee in the bonnet to create trouble in a certain way or place, and unless you got rid of them, that's what would happen.
Sounds like you are in a unique position to learn something about how the world is really put together. You should take advantage of it.
By the way, you are probably lucky that the girls that get nasty around you are showing their true colors. Maybe your mother is praying for you. You know the song, right? "My momma done told me...." too, too true. It's not exactly the girls' fault, though. According to the tales of scripture, demons prefer to pick on women, to get them to cause men to throw both their lives away. To be on the safe side, it's best to try to hang out with women who are strongly attached to a father figure. You have to make friends with him, too, but that can be a good thing. Until you get the spooks thing figured out, this is the only safe way to go with women.
Cheers,
Stephen

I feel like I'm a demon myself...
"God never closes a door without opening a window"...I am in a building with no entrance or exit, just a maze of doors and windows..
I just guess I am not meant to have a g/f. It's my fate I guess. Or I was cursed..

That's probably what they're picking up on. You need to learn ways to de-escalate your body's responses to stress. Take a class on meditation, or take up yoga. (Great way to meet girls, btw.)

Funny thing is, I figured that if he was going to ask about women, I thought we could give him advice about actual women in the 21st century, not mythical sexist female ideals. But maybe that's just me?
Personally I try to ignore advice from people who's model of interpersonal relationships ascribes behavior to demon possession.
Oh, one thing I forgot to ask: SA-XHBK, are you a guy? I'm not sure your gender was mentioned, but I've been laboring under the assumption you're male. If you're a lesbian asking for advice about women, I can't help you.

Ah, it doesn't matter. Even when I'm relaxed and having fun, I am their burden.
Maybe I should face the music and realise, it's just not damn possible for me to find a g/f. OK "I'm not old, but I am not getting any younger".
Crash dude do you have msn messenger?

There's no way this can be true.
You just have to stop caring so much about it, and it'll happen.

Maybe because it's largely true, and because you obviously haven't done it yet?
