  • 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.

I want a cuddle :(

DO something about it. DO something that makes you feel good about yourself - get a pedicure, take a bubble bath, go for an invigorating walk - and then, get dressed up, smile really big and go flirt!

I think the idea of expressing onces feelings is a good idea. I never used to do that. In many ways I didn't know myself what I was feeling when I was young. A number of years ago I spent a lot of time chatting on the web. I stated to be awear that some good relationships where formed from chatting with people over a period of time. We leared a lot about each other from all the typing. But we didn't know what the others were feeling and they didn't know what I was feeling because we couldn't see onces bodily expression. Somc of us started adding pressions into our typed expressions .. we all know the :) and LOL, but one can go beyond that and type happy or sad etc.

Being a guy who isn't always tuned into others expressions, I like them being verbalized as well.

romantic physical affection from the opposite sex?

I was telling flnativegrl earlier today that I am absolutely craving physical affections from a man and I'm not talking about sex though that would really nice too...but I'm just absolutely longing to be held and kissed and cuddled with and hold hands and the feel of a mans hand in the small of my back as we are crossing the street or his arm around me as we sit in a movie theatre....

Do any of you ever battle with craving that romantic affection that comes with a dating/committed relationship?

And the really scary thought for me is, what if I never have that again??? :(

Oh my goodness yes.. after being in a relationship with my husband for a very long time.. and although we did not talk very well.. we had intimacy.. I am eight months out and I crave it so much.. sigh.. I find it hard to watch other couples when I am out.. I want to cry.. LOL... I am a church goer and I so want a man beside me to share GOD with.. go to church with.. pray with.. I rarely had that with my husband.. sigh..

Yes sex is good.. but all the little things.. nice words.. though I did not hear that many of them.. but holding hands.. etc.. those looks and everything.. Glad I am not the only one..

I am only just coming out of the intense grief period of wanting to be with my husband but he does not.. I so want the romance.. I watch romantic movies all the time now.. LOL.. and I never did before..
