• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Do you have a best friend?

I have been very blessed to have a close knit set of friends, although we are not as close knit as we once were...families take up much of their time & I am the only single one left but we do try to make a real effort to get together a few times a year to just have a few good laughs. The internet & text messaging help in between...LOL.

Karen - is the BFF - 30 yrs of friendship & counting. We can still talk for hours about nothing...LOL.
Pam - my shrink...she knows me better than me.
Gwen - my defender...she makes me get a backbone & take up for myself.
Kim - she just lets me moan/groan, cry & get it out...then plan what to do next.
Brad/Mike - they make me laugh
Kevin - makes me feel like I can take on the world...even when I know I can't.

i dont have a "best" friend (outside of my wife). i have moved so many times over the last handful of years, that it has been hard to come across a "best" friend. with that said, i do have some very good friends that i can count on for just about anything.

I viewed an amazing series online a while back by Robert Morris entitled "My Best Friend: The Holy Spirit". Consequently, I realized that although I have a couple really close friends, the Holy Spirit's friendship, support and love are always there.

Before I got married it seems like I always had a close friend or two to hang with.
Now it seems like I want to spend the majority of my free time with my family. It's not that I could not have friends if I wanted to, it is just the time commitment I am unwilling to make. Perfectly content enjoying family life at home.

Nope, no best friends since I was about college age. They all moved away, got married, same old story. I spend all my time working and taking care of my son, so I have no "social life".

My cat's a pretty nifty little buddy, though lol.
