    Can a relationship make you CRAZY?

    I am just getting out of something that became very unhealthy for me towards the end and I'm wondering if anyone else experienced something similar, but ended up having a healthy relationship? It's hard to describe, but being my own worst enemy I created so many different stories in my head...

    Days and nights, nights and days

    What do you do when you're trying to fall asleep at night?? I have my days and nights mixed up, which fortunately does not affect me at work as I work in the afternoon, but I would prefer to stop waking up at noon and feel like most of my day is gone. I try reading, playing games on the...

    Decided to go for it...

    There has been a lot of talk on here about getting over people who just aren't that into you and moving on. So I decided to go for it tonight. I created an online dating profile several months ago when a friend encouraged me to see how many single people are still "out there." A guy I've been...

    What would you do...

    I'm going to give three scenarios and I'm curious what you would do in each case. Scenario 1: You are very much in love with someone and have been for a long time. However, the person you're in love with does not return your feelings. In the meantime, somebody asks you out on a date. You...

    ...seem to be in the singles group! It's Friday night and here we are. What are you doing right now? While I wouldn't describe the way I feel right now as lonely, I feel like something is missing. I typically write that off as wishing I was married, but then I wonder...if God knows and...

    Oops...just bummed myself out...

    I think I managed to bum myself out about being single today. I have been pretty content being single for awhile, but I feel like some raging lion just came out of the cage ready to take care of business. I'm praying God has someone for me just around the corner, as well as for all of you who...

    Souls and prayer?

    During yesterday's Mass, my priest said we must pray for souls because they aren't able to pray for themselves anymore. While I believe in praying for souls, is this accurate that the church teaches souls cannot offer prayer, repent, and speak for themselves to the Heavenly Father? The...

    Catholic Church Teachings on Death - Third Anniversary?

    Just for some background, I have started RCIA classes this fall to join the church, so I am still learning quite a bit about the Catholic faith. A friend of mine passed away this weekend and I was reading what the church teaches about death - whether we are judged right away or at the time of...

    Parenthood for singles?

    As a Christian, what are your thoughts on single men and/or women adopting or having a child through artificial insemination? If a spouse doesn't seem to be in the cards for a Christian man or woman, is it fair for them to deny a child the opportunity to have both a mother and father? Is it...

    Dating and Boundaries

    For those who have made the commitment to saving sex for marriage, what kind of boundaries have you set while dating? 1. Is it okay to be alone in each other's houses...ie: watching a movie, talking, dinner, etc? 2. Cuddling and kissing? 3. Being in a car alone together? I get mixed...

    Kind of done...

    I would not say I've had a hard life, but I've definitely had my share of troubles. The past few months have been pushing me to my limit and I'm just over everything and everyone.

    Maintaining a friendship?

    So, about a month ago I told a guy friend that I had feelings for him. He said he didn't feel the same way. I told him it wasn't that big of a deal if he didn't feel the same about me and have been trying to move on, but truthfully, the past month has been hard on me. So many days and nights of...

    Another newbie question

    So, as I've said before, I have a strong pull to the Catholic church and I'm taking the next year or so to explore that draw and see if converting to Catholicism is the right step for me. One thing that remains heavy on my heart is if I become Catholic, do I have to marry a Catholic man as...

    Sharing with a future significant other

    How important do you think it is to share the details of your past with a future significant other? I am asking this question in two forms: 1. When it comes to past relationships: Who you dated, how long, why you broke up, etc. 2. A list of your sexual partners, either telling the number of...

    All Saints Day

    I saw a post on the Facebook page of the Catholic church I've been visiting about All Saints Day mass tomorrow. The post mentioned it's a holy day of obligation, so I've been trying to learn more about this, but thus far I'm coming up short. Through Google searches, so far all I can get is...
