  • 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've lost feelings.
I've been dating (someone) for about two months ..
Half long distance, but I don't feel anything anymore.
The closer it seems I move to God the less I want to make - out and stuff.
I don't nessecarily 'miss' him.
Is this normal?
Am I just counteracting his 'mushie' feelings?
I trust the Lord this is right, I mean I have no complaints.
Just I think 'he' might think that 'he' isn't adding up because I have lost interest in the physical.
???!???!??!??

(thank you)

i would like God to be more of a center of our relantionship .. not just our individual lifes.

any recommendations of how to do that?

Fluffstah, and I, have never hesitated praying together when we have troubles. Sometimes, we send our prayers thru PM or snail mail.....It has helped us focus our relationship towards a Christ-centered relationship. She'll even send me verses when I'm not having such a great day to remind me that the Lord is there for me.

If it's something that bothers you about him, then I'd suggest sitting down like adults and talk about your concerns. If he can't keep an open mind and his heart is elsewhere, then I think you pretty much know what to do. I would want someone that encourages me in my walk with Christ; not someone who'll be a hindrance.

Just my .02 cents......

Maybe God wants you to save making out and such for marriage. When you're married, I'm sure you'll want to, as it is part of the way God designed things... read Song of Songs. :)

For now though... it comes down to this: do you feel a mental and emotional connection with him, as well as a spiritual connection? Are you guys compatible? If so, I wouldn't worry too much about the physical.... it'll grow in time.

I agree with invisiblebabe..............pray about what God wants you to save for marriage, people have different convictions.

I have no problem with kissing, some people do.Everyone's different.


I also agree with invisablebabe. All that stuff is for marriage and god is just showing you that threw abstenance. I m sure it will come back, and trust god to show you if that person is the one (ask and you shall recieve)

And yes not everyone is into kissing ;)
