She dumped me for Jesus! Going through some old letters I came across one from a young woman I dated for a few months.

In the letter she expressed her affection for me and appreciated our time together, but she was committed to serving her religion and was fulfilling a life long dream and entering a convent.

Jesus!

and added, "But I love the lord more."

I took no offense. I was the one naking naughty with her, not him.

In it, Dietrich became emotionally attached to a woman with amnesia that he was processing for shoplifting. Tracking her ID and finding that she was a nun, his line was, ‘when I lose, I lose to the best’!

Don’t look at it’s as losing her to God. Look at it as turning her against all men.

See! Much better.
