Lost and looking for direction

[Kenny Benson]

I'm Kenny and I'm drawing a blank on this introduction thing. I feel like I have so much going on and I don't know where to start. I'm almost 26. I'm a Baptist. I graduated from a Christian college. I'm employed. My parents taught me right from wrong but I've never felt right about myself. God has always been a part of my life. However, I could never tell if I was following him or running away from him, especially as far as relationships are concerned. I'm autistic with Asperger's, so that doesn't help. I truly feel things but I'm not good at expressing or communicating emotions. I've been married for almost three years. My wife is Catholic. She's much older than me. She was widowed- not divorced. She smokes and drinks, but she's a really good woman and nice. My parents dislike her. She has 6 grown children and she is depriving them of the chance to have grandchildren and so on. I didn't marry an older woman by accident. I've always been more comfortable around older people. I know God doesn't make mistakes but people do. Now I'm rambling. Like I said, I do feel things. But I don't feel happy.

Hello, Kenny. This forum is really just for introductions. You made a good and informative one, and we are glad you are here, but when you pass from introducing yourself to raising questions about anything, the idea is for a new member to find one of the forums that specifically deals with whatever questions he might want to ask.

So take a look at the list of forums and decide which is best for your purposes. This will also allow you to target your audience and get more and better replies.
