CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Sharp and constant pressure?
I refer to being brutally rejected every single time I have expressed affection for a lady.
Sure. They want nice and educated men who are also athletic and charming and charismatic and talented and good-looking. And when there are plenty of those around, just being nice and educated doesn't cut it.

I'm sorry you were treated that way.
Have you ever fallen for a friend and thought you would be perfect together, and then got painfully rejected?
I've had that happen before. It seems to be hard to grow your self esteem back after something like that happens.

I hate the fact that if you don't look like a Barbie doll, a guy won't want you.

Pfft. Barbie Doll types turn me right the heck off.
ChaseThisLight: About half of the over 2 dozen women in whom I have been interested were my friends. For a while I tried cold asking out women with whom I did not already have a close acquaintance, but I eventually went back to the idea of using friendship as the foundation of all relationships, to which I still hold. I was actually in love with three of those with whom I had a close friendship; the rest were genuine attraction and interest but not exactly being "in love". After recovering for the third time from falling in love and having my heart ripped out of my chest with her bare hands and thrown on the floor and stomped upon until I died (props to whomever gets the reference!) I finally learned how to avoid exposing myself like that. And I've learned to preserve my friendships by not broadcasting my affection without having first obtained a sign of mutual interest - which has not yet happened.

Wow... Now I can see why you feel the way you feel... It's hard to grasp the idea of having my heart broken that many times.
I do not envy men. They are usually the ones who have to do the pursuing.

Aww I'm sorry. I never had a date to any of my past formals either.
You could always get a group of single gal pals to go with. That's what I always did.

Yeah, the problem is, if you aren't in the sorority you can't go, unless you're a date. Most girls in sig kap are taken.
Oh well. At least I'll look pretty

Hey, Joy!
I'm doing well, God has been good to me.
College is hard and they moved my exam from Wednesday to Tuesday next week.
This was me when I found out about it:
Me: Exam one day earlier?
Anyway, aside with my sillyness.
I hope you do well on college! God bless!
