• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • 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

When I was between the 6th and 7th grade, I rejected a lot of people who asked me out. I remember saying yes to one, but they already had a boyfriend. I have not dated at all and am 30 now.

It seems like every time I get close to dating someone, something always happens to prevent it. I wonder if I'm being punished and/or cursed for what I did between the 6th and 7th grade. I really don't want to be alone forever. I have been praying about this for years but nothing seems to improve and I feel doomed to spend the rest of my alone and I feel abandoned by God.

I don't believe you're being punished / cursed because of something you did in the 6th and 7th grade. That's not how God works.

You seem to be going through some form of depression, or not feeling good about yourself. Perhaps that is keeping people from becoming interested in you.

I agree, God isn't punishing you - he loves you and has a perfect plan for your life.
Maybe you just haven't met the right person yet - sometimes his timing seems very different to what we want, but he does know best :hug:

If you are feeling depressed, please see your doctor :hug:
Praying for you
