I have been dubbed a Methodist Catholic by my favorite priest. I was so relieved to read your post. The priest in my life is wonderful and while not the same I do have a wicked crush on him. Priest or not I am not the kind of woman he would seek an intimate relationship with. There are huge differences in age, socioeconomic status and IQ that, I feel, would doom things anyway. I do however use my relationship with him as the yardstick by which I judge other men I allow in my life... I want
that kind of man. Anyway, I know it isn't the same and I don't have any wonderful pearls of wisdom but know that you are not alone. Oh... and... Urggg... The Pope does need to change things so that priests can marry! in my not so humble opinion
