• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • 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

Hey.
Right now I am in a LDR that has been going on for a long time. It started out innocent, in fact it's why I loved it so much. But now my relationship is going to immorality. I am finally saving enough to be able to go see them this year and be with them. But they have slept with one person, and then doing it again right now. This Saturday I was told it was going to happen. I am fully aware because they tell me. So I was up all night crying on Saturday, praying to God nothing would happen. And nothing did! But it seems like its just holding off the inevitable. I am always filled with worry, regret and heart break. My heart is so hot even right now. I want my relationship to finally get to that point. I waited long enough haven't I? They tell me how much they want to be with me still. It confuses me. I love God and the spiritual implications of sleeping with people make me want to cry. They tell me they won't leave me, even though they are having sex. But I am so jealous. It makes me unable to sleep at night. I am admittedly extremely attached. I am willing to forgive everything, even if I have to deal with it till I get there finally. But my heart wont let me rest. What should I do right now? I can't leave I refuse. I want to see this through. I have to.

This makes me want to cry all the time. I suffer every single day. There is rarely a day where my heart isn't aching. I wish I could be better and that everything would be doing right. If it isn't this LDR its my home life, I get abused sometimes. Even over miniscule things so I have to be perfect. I am so stressed I feel like everyone is against me. I have gotten gray hairs from all of it. I really try to be happy I cheer my self up but it doesnt last since all of these things happen again. Sigh. I just needed to vent. I feel like my life is shortening from this.

TeaCat, you deserve to be treated better than that. I know you don't want to give up this relationship, but I think you will keep getting hurt and it will get harder the longer you are with this person.
Hold out for someone who treats you the right way and who loves you enough to wait for you.

Those who are abused, will often seek out abusive relationships.

You need to find some help, be it a counselor or something. And you need to break off this long distance relationship, because it will only end in heart break. NumberOfStars is right, you deserve someone better. Someone who will love you and not cheat on you. God is one such person. Depend on Him.

Philippeans 4:13 I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.
