    Why Does My Abstinence Make People Angry?

    I hope I don't sound argumentative, I merely want to bring this up to prepare any females(or males if they have the same problem) if they haven't yet heard what I'm about to say... Some people doggedly hold to the idea that you have to "test drive the car" to prevent an incompatible and sexless...

    Why Does My Abstinence Make People Angry?

    This is a frighteningly common problem. I think part of it is being "convicted" like Bramwell said and unfortunately way too often he is trying to manipulate you. I wonder just how often we have been victims of this: What is Sexual Coercion? | www.loveisrespect.org

    What DID you think about turning 30?

    Before I hit 25, I got angry at people who were in their late 20s and thirties and acted like they were old. Then 25 hit and it was a rough time for me... I had a lot of aspirations that fell flat in an ugly way and I still feel like there are some things I need to "prove". I guess until I do...

    Spiritual Gift Quiz

    Well, I feel like I had a hard time answering those questions. I answered a lot of things no preference and got higher scores than I think are accurate. I have a lot of compassion for others, even very sinful, hated people, and once I think I may have had a vision but I don't know what it meant...

    How to stop seeking validation from males

    I believe that God doesn't have to "punish" us. Sins carry their own natural consequences and God simply warns us of the hell we will create for ourselves by doing these things. Some of these ways do seem attractive and rewarding at first, but I firmly believe we will pay for them, not because...

    Regrets thread

    I wonder if both of those tracks in your life could be turned into a message for good? I and many women I know have been hurt by men who were riding some fence between being gay and straight. I don't know what the solution to that problem is, but I know it needs attention of some kind. It also...

    Do you feel young or old?

    Thanks Inkachu :) My feelings on that subject vary a lot. Sometimes I feel like I'm better than I've ever been and then sometimes I think unhealthy things about myself. It's good hear of a positive example.

    Do you feel young or old?

    In some ways, because I see life so differently, I feel like I'm starting my life over new and feel kind of young. When I think about finding a husband and having children, I feel old, like it is less likely and that my best years were wasted... Even if it's not wasted, there will be so little...

    Regrets thread

    I wish I had become a Christian earlier. It might have prevented so many other things like how far I let some relationships go and looking to earthly things like my job or other people to make me happy.

    Chemistry

    I normally think of chemistry as other people have said, you just connect effortlessly and/or deeper than with other people. But, like this: there are some people, friends and other things, that you feel so much like them and share un-explainable occurrences with them that it is uncanny...

    Climate change. It's already too late.

    I think people don't discuss the other issues as much because they are either directly or indirectly related to climate change and its causes. If we address the fossil fuel issue and the rampant consumerism that fuels it(pardon the pun), the other issues would be "fixed" at the same time.

    Climate change. It's already too late.

    The use of alternative energy sources becomes more popular every day. We may not ever completely eradicate fossil fuels or we may not have time to at this rate, but I think any politician that doesn't try is phenomenally unwise.
