• 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

I've noticed a HUGE difference!!!!

I'm pretty much staying in the Mature Singles and Fab Forties, with exception for a post here and there in the Singles section.

As we get older, I guess we just get more relaxed with 'life'. I just can't believe how stressed alot of people in their 20's and early 30's are! :doh:

I mean, I know I was also like that in my 20's, but I'm sooooooo glad I'm the age I am!!!! Things had to work out and they had to work out NOW!!

But, with age, I know to relax and take my time with 'life' and just pray and leave it up to God. Then, I no longer worry about things. :pink:

I get a headache sometimes going thru some threads in the singles section. :swoon:

I know what you mean HFL. Sometimes I want to say to the youngsters 'you know, this really isn't that big an issue. Things will get better.'

I wouldn't want to go through my 20s or even early 30s again. Those of us "mature singles" have been through a lot and come out the other side and tend to like the result. :thumbsup:

I wanna post in the Fab 40s. *pouts* The 30s forums are bo-ring! :p

I KNOW!!! The 40's forum is soooooo much more fun than the 30's!!! I'd welcome you with open arms if you want to post there too! ;)

Bridgit and HFL - thanks! :hug:

I just get so tired of the Singles forum and there aren't any other forums where I post that much. I've tried WD, but the ladies there are fairly clique-ish and I haven't seemed to break the ice with any of them yet.

Would the system even allow someone younger than 40 to post in that section?

Yep! Anyone can post in there - it's not like the WD or the Men's forum where you're blocked from posting.

I'm getting tired of the main singles forum too...just some people are pretty immature - others aren't and I like posting with them but some are just getting on my last nerve. :doh:

I don't like posting in WD either!! :sick:

Yeah, I'm posting and I don't turn 40 for another week.

Should I post a "is it OK if I post here?" thread - or just start posting?
I say just start posting. There is a fellowship thread called Verandah Fellowship. I say start posting in there and then HopeFaithLove4u, hope4today and grammybear and I can welcome you and back you up for posting in the 40's forum.

The people there are really nice and I don't think anyone would have a problem with you posting there. :hug:

Ok...one of the side effects of the meds I'm on for my back is extreme irritability - along with some other things that I'm not going to share here...anyways, I think the irritability is kicking in.

I'm just getting really frustrated with some of the people who are posting below in the main singles forum. Is it just me or does it seem that the immaturity has reached an all new high! :doh: I'm just blown away by the cockiness, the assumptiveness and the lack of emotional intelligence being displayed in some of the threads.

I really do think it is just a few people and not the majority but man some of them are getting on my last nerve!

Ok....rant over :sorry:

Yeah...it's hard for me sometimes to keep my mouth shut or should I say fingers quiet...sometimes I just want to tell them exactly what I think but I know that it really won't do any good cause the ones I want to tell wouldn't listen. :sigh:

I'm trying to post more in the Fab 40's, here and venturing into the Women's Discussion area as well but I have to say that I enjoy the Mature Singles the most! :thumbsup:

When your diet is prunes and Geritol, you tend to mellow...

I was greeted with a very warm welcome. :D I'm gonna like it over there, I think!

I, honestly, have mixed feelings about the FF section....so I think I'll just stay here mostly. :thumbsup:
