    Soulmate dumped me, very depressed

    I know what it's like to be dumped. Last summer, my boyfriend of 2 and a half years - who I ADORED - broke up with me. I was very depressed too and lost weight and was in tears a lot. I am now with someone else, and he is - dare I say it? - more special than the previous guy. I didn't think it...

    How long since you last self injured?

    It's probably been about 6 months since I "properly" cut. How time flies. I haven't even been trying.

    Age

    I was with a guy who was 3 years older than me for 2 and a half years. All my boyfriends were older. My boyfriend of 5 months is 2 and a half years younger than me. I'd never have forseen it working, but it does. His age is not an issue, we get on like a house on fire.

    question for girls

    I don't know if I would want to know. It would probably make me feel terrible, as I'm pretty insecure like that.

    I have become everything I hate

    Firstly, :hug: a big hug. I totally understand where you're coming from, but in a slightly different way. I constantly look up to my "old" self, so much so that I think I put myself on a pedestel. When I was about 14, I was (in my eyes) a really good person and a good Christian. Now, I feel...

    Is there something wrong with me?

    Physical beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I really believe this... When you like someone, you end up loving how they look like, even if it had not previously been your "ideal". When I was with my ex-boyfriend, everything about him seemed perfect to me. I loved the way he looked. Even...

    Is there something wrong with me?

    I think a lot of people wish they were prettier cos of [insert particular physical insecurities here]. Heck, I could give you a list of the things I'd change about myself. But when looking for a boyfriend... I dont think it matters what you look like. This is gonna sound like SUCH a cliche...

    how do you get over someone?

    I'm in a similar situation... My boyfriend of 2 1/2 years just broke up with me... and it hits hard. I guess it's those 2 things that we all hate; time, and patience. Time heals. Cry out to God. Your feelings aren't just gonna go away. You will need to grieve for a while. It really hurts, but...

    insight into discontentedness

    I totally hear you. I know exactly what you mean. I vary between those 2 conflicting emotions... contentedness and discontentedness. Like you, I've just come out of a serious relationship with a Christian guy, and I'm not even entirely sure of the reasons it had to finish. But, like you said...

    What's your 'type'?

    I just look for someone I get on well with, who can make me laugh and smile, and who loves me and cares for me back. Physically... I never normally go for blondes. But I'm not hugely fussy. Tend to prefer skinny guys though, not sure why.

    Fasting for something/someone

    I am considering fasting for the healing of my boyfriend's health problems. Is this Biblical? I don't really know very much about fasting, so any verses/insights/whatever would be really helpful. Thanks!
