• 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.

Just keep pushing forward with the change, regardless of how your husband responds to it. You need this change for YOU - in order to be a healthier person. Hopefully, since your husband is open to counseling, he will soften his heart in time and see the changes you are making are genuine and long-term.

While you are struggling with his dramatic change in attitude, please try to keep in mind that he has been living with the "old" you for these past several years. Just because you know you're making these changes doesn't mean he's going to be able to believe they're going to be long-lasting until more time has passed.

Praying for you both and for your marriage to be mended.
