Do not Give or Take Anything That One Day May Rightfully Belong to Someone Else.

Do not give or take anything that one day may rightfully belong to someone else.

Guys, do not do anything with a girl that you would not
want some guy to do with your future wife. John and Mark were roommates in college. Although John’s past had included a couple of serious mistakes, he had vowed that his next serious kiss would be with his wife. John began to date Maryanne.

Each night when he would come home from a date, Mark would quiz him (as boys often do) about the date. “How did it go, man? I mean, what did you get?” John would always reply, “Mark, I’m not like that anymore. I respect Maryanne too much to try anything.”

After a year, John and Maryanne broke up. A few months later, guess who started dating Maryanne? You guessed it! Mark. They fell in love and eventually got married.

John was the best man at the wedding. Afterward, John called Mark inside and whispered in his ear: “Mark, do you remember when I was dating Maryanne, how you used to ride me about not doing anything sexually with her?”

You don't have any idea
how deeply I appreciate you for that...

“Yeah,” Mark replied. “That was so ignorant of me.”

“Aren’t you glad I treated her the way I did?”

Mark embraced his old roommate and fought back the tears. “You don’t have any idea how deeply I appreciate you for that, John.”
