• 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

My goodness, how do all of y'all wind up in these things? Long distance sounds awful, and I'm surprised anyone would do it. That said, a lot of people here in courting couples seem to, and I don't know why that is.
We met here on CF...and can't actually move to be closer to each other until we graduate from school. (We're solving that problem by getting married the week after I graduate ;) )

I used to go to a summer camp in another province for 2-7 weeks every summer. Since we were all from different parts of Canada, QUITE a few long distance relationships came out of that. I'd say the internet has something to do with it too.

i have recently gotten into a long distance relationship with a young lady, however, i do admit, as a man, it is difficult simply because of the distance... I'm not saying, though, that there aren't advantages, because there are advantages to it, but having said that...

to those who have been in or are in a long distance relationship right now, what did you do or are you doing to persevere and endure through it?... advice, support, encouragement, or suggestions would be gladly appreciated
