    dating people with mental illness

    My son's father was bipolar and I ended up alone and broken hearted (not alone I have my son). It would really depend on the illness, and the circumstances of their life.

    Love as a rescue mission

    maybe you should just write romance novels. Trying to rescue someone will end up hurting you in the long run. Women are the ones who usually fall into the trap of thinking that loving someone will change them or make a difference in their life, but it won't.

    Frustrated!!

    God does not give us feelings or take them away, He does not work that way. If you don't have a relationship with him then maybe you don't need one with him. Keep praying and you will find a man in which a relationship will work with.

    Okay...

    I baked the guy I like cookies and all I heard from him was he enjoyed them. So I can assume he does not like me or he did not realize why I made him cookies. He is a very intelligent man so I am leaning towards not liking me.

    Why don't more men volunteer as mentors

    I have the same problem. I have been trying for years to get a man to spend time with my son. The only man who spent time with my son and took him fishing died last summer. A new young man (19) in my Church spent time with him recently so hopefully this will be something that will last, for my...

    Homework

    I am so frustrated with my eight year old son right now, he won't do his homework right. He wants to write two word answers instead of using complete sentences. He is in the third grade, he needs to be able to write properly. How should I get him to do his work properly. It is so frustrating...

    Last night

    I was told I am intimidating and I should not be so blunt. I am the type of person who usually just tells someone how I feel. I was told not to do that with the guy I currently like because it would scare him. I did make him cookies though. I also have someone who is going to talk to him for...

    Do you think Smokeing pot is a sin

    No I think God created it for a reason. He knew it would help some things, such as the main cancer related nausea drug is made from a derivative of THC. I think the abuse of anything can be a sin but the use of things for good reason is not. Now if you factor in the fact that smoking pot is...

    What are the best places to meet singles?

    Seems like most people here have the same problem I do. There are no single men anywhere close to my age at church. I just don't know where to meet them. I too have been tempted to go to a bar to meet someone, but I know I won't meet any good Christian men there. The store is not a good place...

    If you have been in this type of situation before then you might be in the type of situation in which you are experiencing these feelings due to the fact that she is unavailable and that is "safer" than having feelings for someone who is available. The bottom line is you said she is not a...

    How can a Christian NOT regret sex before marriage?

    Second Corinthians 5:17, we are new creations in Christ. We are forgiven, and the whole issue about not being under the law anymore once Christ died for us. God does not want us to wallow in guilt He wants us to live for Him in the best way we can, and if we screw up He made a way for us to be...

    choosing abstinence??

    I made the same choice when I was about your age. I have an eight year old son so sometimes men will throw that in my face when I tell them. I won't date those guys anymore. It is really hard and there are nights I just want to go find someone. I do feel that in order for God to honer my desire...

    How To Deal With Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons

    If you just want to get rid of Mormons shake their hand and say "what is this, has it a name, will you give it to me" this will freak them out it is from their temple ordinances. I was raised as a Mormon and am still trying to figure out how to handle my family. My sister in law yelled at my...

    How Far is Too Far?

    I think it should be a personal decision between you and your fiance. There are people who say sexual thoughts are a sin but they are normal and you cannot help them. Good thing Jesus died for our sins. Pray and set the limit before you start making out, then stick to it. I personally question...

    I Give Up!

    I sometimes feel the same way, but when I pray about it I feel as if God has someone for me and will bring him into my life when the time is right. My son really wants a father and siblings, he gets discouraged quite often, but we just have to keep praying.
