  • 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

Finally, after 5 1/2 long years of prayer, love, and waiting, the girl of my dreams told me that she loves me. This happened last night. We write letters (not emails) back and forth to eachother because we are in different cities right now. We see eachother sometimes. I cannot believe that this is happening! It feels too good to be true sometimes.

Sometimes we talk on the phone and sometimes MSN. We can both be busy sometimes, but we try to talk whenever we can.

I just needed to say this on here. Don't ever give up if you cannot let them go inside of you (that is, unless they tell you to give up--then you need to move on). I didn't know for the longest time if she felt the same way, but now I do. I'm so happy I took the chance.

lol I waited for 5 1/2 so far to have a chance with her!! No one can believe that I waited for that long. But she is definitely worth it. We didn't date for 5 1/2 before she said it. I just waited and prayed and sent letters and gifts, and over the past few months we have grown closer to eachother, and now I know that she feels the same about me as I do about her.

Well, I've known Paul since I was 14 and we tried going out then but it just didn't work, he was of course very immature.

Now, I just turned 20 and we have been working at the same place since March (that's when I started there) and we have been seeing each other since then pretty much... but he liked me ALL this time and didn't think he had a chance with me again.

Relationships are great when you don't rush into them. I had a few that were definitely rushed and they did not last very long at all, pretty much over before they even started. Congratulations!

Awww... i have great respect for you! My fiance had loved me for 3 years before I felt the same way, although we'd been best friends before then. That patience will pay off, if not with her, then in life. Honestly, you two have a better go at marriage in the long run because of the extensive friendship beforehard.

That's great news :) I'm happy for you. I know what it feels like to wait for love. I wasn't waiting on anyone inparticular, but I prayed and prayed to meet someone, God kept me waiting, He had His reasons but now I'm engaged to my soulmate. I wish you all the best with this girl!

Man, waiting can be heart breaking!! But when it finally falls into place, every second of that wait is worth it!! I waited about a year before my now-boyfriend finally agreed to give things a go. Now, he's kicking himself for not realising it sooner!!

I'm so happy for you :) After such a long wait, it's clear that things are only going to get better and better for you guys....!!!!!!!!

I'm happy for you! In this day and age when relationships are so rushed, and couples don't take the time to bond properly, it's nice to see a relationship develop slowly, step by step, a journey that is to be savored and enjoyed. :)

I also find it refreshing that you and your girl write actual letters to each other. So lovely and old fashioned.
