• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • 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

There's been a guy in my church that i've had the biggest crush on, but he now has a g/f, and I know they're very serious, probably get married. Thing is he's exactly what I want. He's an elder, first to jump to help out when it's needed, volunteers for everything. Has great insights to the Word. He is kind and courteous. Seems to treat his g/f very sweetly. It's been a long time, I find i'm missing the little things. It'd be so nice to have someone bring me a cup of coffee, give me a hug when things aren't going so great, sit and talk things over with me, etc. I'm really missing all that stuff, to the point where it gets very difficult. So I go to the Lord, His grace is sufficient, but at times there lingers the longing in my heart. That guy at church...I want one. :)

Well, it's good to recognize where you are and what you want. I won't go into waiting for God's timing and all that because we have heard that and know it. I believe that you are secure in yourself and in the Lord and so are ready for when the right man comes along. God bless you.

Have you talked with God about that?
And asked what He wants?:prayer:

Absolutely, i'm waiting. :) And I talk with Him about everything. Until He sends someone, or opens an opportunity, He is my husband. :)

There is this guy at my church that I like - sounds like your one and my one must be twins (except he isn't an elder) - he is a strong Christian, he really loves God, he helps anyone who needs help, a hard worker, kind, compasionate, and a hundred other great qualities, plus he is gorgeous. It looks like he has started seeing someone - and they do not seem suited at all! (its not just me that thinks that) I miss all those things you mentioned and at times it hurts soo much. I want one of those (if I am honest I just want that one!)

I know the feeling, except, I want a gal of course.
;)

We know that it can get discouraging at times though, but even we don't understand why things work out, even in retrospect, trusting in the lord is the best thing to do.

My personal life is pretty uneventful right now :sigh: but God has a plan.
