• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

It's over

Imaniingod,

Yes, I am unhapy right now. However, it is getting better with the Grace of God.

As a matter of fact - I started going to the gym more. I always made excuses of why I was unable to go. Next week I have a hair appt. to do something completely different. I want to change for me. I need to lift up my spirit. I am tired of my children seeing me hurt. And dad acting as if nothing is wrong. He acts as if he has no responsibility for where are marriage has gone.

God Bless

4Christ2,

I am so sorry for all you had to go through. I don't understand how people can walk away from their marriages. This is something I will never understand.

You are carrying on and surviving. Don't be consumed in what they have. Because it was built on deception from your ex-husband. His vow was with you and he broke that vow.

Remain strong in your faith and continue to help others who are in situations as you have been. I am truly grateful you posted. I too have felt well he won't do this or that. However, I have to realize he is not the same man who was concerned about my best interest. Now he is only concerned about his and his family is filed away somewhere. He comes first in his head.

God Bless you for taking the time to remind us woman to protect ourselves financially.


God Bless

Shesjr,

No, I did not get a restraining order. He has never hit me. He has thrown a couple of things due to him being angry. This all happened within the last 3 months. We did not have this problem in over 20 years.

I know I should let go because he does not want to be married to me. I don't know how to give up the man I love and have been married to for 21 years.

It is not so easy to give up. I continue to pray for Gods will in our marriage.

God Bless
Hello my sister in Christ, as long as you're still praying in my opinion you haven't given up. God be with you and your children.
