  • 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

Absolutely....Brian is the most wonderful man I've ever known. We own our home and car, we live in a nice area, close to shops, hospitals etc. We only live on the pension but are financially secure and have no money worries, we get along with just about everyone, especially with each other. We have wonderful pets, we're retired and life is like one big holiday. I wouldn't change my life for anything.

DH is a great, fun, caring guy and I'm very lucky to have him. This past year and a half has really sucked (for lack of a better word) in a lot of ways, yet he's been great and supportive throughout it. That said, I truly have a very good marriage, even through the tough times which are the real test.

I couldn't have created a better man than my DH. He's wonderful, caring, loving, giving, serving....the list goes on. No, life isn't perfect, but who would want it to be. I love when we have little fights, the make-up sex is awesome. I wouldn't trade him for the world.

sometimes. It's up and down. I have to work through some things. I can't say that I have ever been 100%. But I married my husband without knowing him very well, and that is the choice I made, and if I weigh up all the good things in our marriage, they do out weigh the negative. He is a nice guy. It is a struggle for me sometimes, I want to be happy, and I know that is a choice, I want to be obedient to God and be the best wife I can be. I allow feelings and emotions get in the way. I sometimes feel there is something missing from our relationship.

I can say that it took awhile, it was a process for me. But looking back over all God has done for us & the rough times he has brought us through, God has me with the right person & I am happy. There will always be ups & downs, & I had to learn that love is just not a feeling it is a commitment. Ari

Content more than happy. I know there would be nobody better for me than my DH in so many ways. The things that make me not put 100% happy come from within me. I'm an independent person who is very happy with her own company (think I should have taken holy orders sometimes!) so from time to time I get a little wistful about living alone. It's not the same with the kids though, don't know why. I know that if anything happened to DH (and God forbid it will) I probably wouldn't remarry. And I would miss him dreadfully.
