  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I need some advice I met this guy in college and were both in our 30’s and I’m really shy and he’s somewhat shy. I how can I tell if he likes me or not with him being shy? He approached me first but when he did very nervous but he never would introduce himself or ask what my names is so I finally did. He has done things like open the door and has asked me more than once if marriage and children are in my future and where I’m going to live after college. He always smiles and winks at me a lot with his face all lit up but when his classmates are around he will not flirt but acknowledges me. In the cafeteria and if were both in their he will not come up to me I will not either I’m afraid but he does stare at me though or if I’m studying he will not interrupt me but I will not bother him either. Whenever he has tried to touch my arm or shoulder he pulls away and gets nervous. I believe he knows I’m shy cause he’s not too forward and does not laugh and we have talked at times alone on campus and were both comfortable with that. Were both really busy with school and work he works 30 hrs and takes 20 hrs at school so we do not have any leisure time our time goes to studying? I have seen him talked to other girls on campus that are in his class he does not act shy around them which he only talks about the class though and his voice is not softer like it is when he talks to me. with like me he acts tense like by looking at me then looks at his feet or looks away and he does not smile or wink at the girls in his class I‘ve notice when he does not know I’m around by me observing him. Do you think he likes me? I know that were both busy people especially working and attending school full time and I just need to have some patience and wait.

It sounds like he likes you to me. :) Since the two of you are so busy, maybe you could just have coffee together one morning or something quick like that. It would give you a chance to talk, but not be a big time commitment and might not feel as threatening as a full length date. Surely you two can spare 10 minutes for something like that. :) Good luck to you!

This may sound strange, but it's how we can be sometimes. He needs to know his head won't be bitten off if he asks you out to do something (dinner, studying together, or something).

Basically he's afraid if he's too forwards with you he'll scare you away. Perhaps you can remind him he's got to do the asking? Good luck!
