I once told my friend that starting a fwb situationship with a girl who he knows for a fact has romantic feelings for him is deeply unethical and would make me lose respect for him. Your responsibility to be a decent human being doesn’t stop at obtaining consent.

It's unreasonably hard to access the Sacrament of Reconciliation so much of the time, especially in deep rural areas and especially when traveling. You search for confessions online. Half the Parishes have no website or an outdated bulletin. Finally one has a time listed, so you go only to find that that information is outdated. So you go to whatever Mass you can, hoping to see the Priest. He either darts out behind the altar or, if he's at the door after Mass, says that he can't do a confession now, you have to show up between 3:15 and 3:25 this Saturday. But because you can't get there then, you call the Parish office at another Church. Nobody answers. You try another Church. A woman answers who seems baffled you're calling about this, tells you that there "might" be confession on Thursday from 7:45 to 8pm. So you don't get to confession for weeks and weeks. How do I know this? I'm currently living it, it's awful.
