  • 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

How do you see yourself?

Okay, Exit...

I honestly want to help you...not sure that I can because I expect that you are looking for the type of girl that I don't really understand myself...but maybe someone else will chime in with some insight.

As a starting point...think hard and tell us what you think a perfect marriage would look like FOR YOU...not at the beginning, but something like 8 years in when the "newlywed" stuff wears off. Describe an ordinary weekday (with the assumption that you are able to work days by then). And then describe your ideal, yet realistic wife. (And yes, I expect her to be trim and lovely to look at...that is fair since that is what you are attracted to....)

Since this is YOUR marriage, there are no wrong answers.

Hey,Blackribbon,I read this last night for the first time. Let's say that I had a case of "writer's block". Later on today,as an artist,I am sure that I will get my "creative juices" flowing. With my imagination,this scenario might appear more sureal,than real. :)

On the surface is seems simple but it really is a hard question...so take your time. We will be here.

Ok,I wrote this in a story form,with Pene,being my wife,and Fred,being myself.

A Day In The Life Of Pene and Fred

The radio alarm goes off at 5:00 A.M,awaking Fred.Fred gets up,does his streaching excerises,puts on his sweats,get his IPOD,leaves the house,and walks for an one mile round trip.

After the one mile walk,Fred showers,gets dressed for work,goes to the kitchen,kisses Pene,his wife,and says,"Good Morning,Babe.Did you sleep well last night?"
After having breakfast together,Fred and Pene have a devotion which consists of Bible reading and prayer.Before Fred leaves the house for work,he kisses Pene. Pene leaves for her job later.

Around 12 noon,while at work,Fred calls Pene at her job.He gets Pene's voice mail. Fred says"Hi Babe,I was just thinking about you and I decided to give you a call.Can't wait to see ya this evening! Bye,Bye!"

At 3;30 PM,Fred does his usual workout at the gym.

Around 5:00 PM,Fred arrives home with some red roses,but he hides them in his car. At 5:30 PM,Pene arrives home.Fred greets her at the door,and gives her a hug. "How was your day?",Fred asks.

While Pene is getting dinner ready,Fred pops into the kitchen. He asks Pene,"Guess what day it is?" Pene,perplexed,tells him,"Well today is not a holiday,or any other special day. I don't know" Fred takes the roses out from behind his back and says,"Today is Pene Appreciation Day."He gives her a hug and a kiss. He sings to her,"GOD bless you.You make me feel brand new.'Cause GOD blessed me with you'" Pene tells him,"I appreciate you also,for all that you do for me. I am your biggest fan." Fred responds,"You don't have to be a STAR, Honey,.....to be in my show."

After dinner,they go for a walk,come home,and shower.After they dry off,Fred offers and GIVES Pene a full body massage with "baby oil for his babe." While Fred is massaging her with soft,long,and smooth strokes,romantic songs by The Stylistics,by William "Smokey' Robinson,and by of course,Barry White,are playing softly as background music.

After the massage is over,Fred and Pene begin to retreat to the bedroom.
They begin to cuddle.Fred begins to run his fingers through her hair.Fred gently caresses Pene's face with the back of his right hand. This action tells Pene that she is STILL a pretty woman. Is this the end of the story?
Well.........I...don't.......THINK so! :)
