    Friends and lovers

    hey, i understand :). i was in a LDR myself last year and it was really hard on the both of us. i think it'll be good for her to get some space this week, you know, take a breather. maybe after that you could like...do something more structured, like a certain time each day that you two can...

    Friends and lovers

    just wondering, were you guys friends before you started going out? i imagine you must have been...although i mean, everyone's situation is different. anyway, what did you two do before you because a couple? that's a good place to start. being lovers can get very emotional and if you're just...

    Grim Future

    I understand :). But you know, God works in mysterious ways...and sometimes we perceive that what He does is just, like in case to you, completely illogical and mystifying. But God is just, and He does what is best for us, even when it seems far from it. A relationship isn't just all candy...

    Grim Future

    Daniel, I don't think people mean to judge you on your age--it's just that it's a fairly legitimate reason for people to raise some issues about the situation, that's all. But I mean, people mature at different ages, different times of their lives...when I was 15, I definitely wasn't ready to be...

    Silly question and embaresing

    i think a guy is really sweet and sensitive when he's willing to let down his emotional guard and truly show himself to the one he loves. it's not a sign of weakness! don't get caught up in the macho act =). it's open and honest and hopefully something your girlfriend appreciates :)!

    Good Devotionals for couples

    i agree! i do understand where you're coming from though Leanna...sometimes couples are not mature enough to be praying or doing devotionals together...but i believe that if you are truly committed to each other and seriously desire to put God first in your relationship, then i do not see the...

    Roles in a Relationship...and etc.

    thanks for replying! i believe that too, that is that men should be the leader of the relationship. by no means does that mean they can step all over women as some people believe ;) *and i personally wouldn't take it!* but it is a God-given responsibility. the interesting thing is that he...

    New Forum: Social Justice

    Interesting forum. This isn't directly related to community service or whatnot, but I thought I'd post it anyway. My college bible study group recently just finished studying the book of Amos together, which is a pretty convicting book regarding social justice. It's so easy to be stuck in our...

    Roles in a Relationship...and etc.

    Hi, I'm kind of new around here, read the boards but never got around to registering until now :) . But I just had some questions/issues that I wanted to broach to all of you and perhaps get some of your advice in return... I've been in a relationship for about 13 months, with a guy that I...
