Hard bein a god-fearin dude

So I went to a party a few weeks ago. I was asked by a very attractive young lady there what I what I was doing after the party. This wasn't just a casual hey let's go grab tea and crumpets kind of asking. I know the young lady and she's very attractive and some would probably think me silly for not responding with a quick "going to your place (this is what she was expecting)" but that's just not my style. Why is that not my style? Well for one I'm not the kind of guy that is looking to sleep around as much as possible (yes... we do in fact exist). What's more is that I declined the implied invitation because it goes against my catholic/moral upbringing. Did I say no because the bible says I should? No I said no because I believe in my faith and in the existence of a superior omnipotent being. I believe that declining said invitation is the only way to live my faith. I must say though, it is very difficult to say no to temptation when the fruits of following faith are not always apparent. The eternal life thing kinda sits on the back burner sometimes, very nondescript, and gets forgotten about as temptation sits in front of it holding up a sign that says "pick me".

I really don't know why I'm writing this.... I think I just needed to get the negative energy out.
