  • 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 have been as intuitive to my wife's feelings our entire marriage as anyone can. Whenever I approach her with what is wrong she doesn't get to the bottom of it. Ever. So we've gone on in unresolved conflict for 18 years now. We married very young and even though we both believe in God we have had differing opinions on a lot of things when it comes to this. As a result she has closed herself off to me and is very stubborn. Also been to counseling a long time ago and that never went well. I'm still willing, but seems like she's not. I can't make her love me. I just have to come to terms that she doesn't want resolution. Difficult when I am still very much in love with her.


Seek God, and get counseling. With those there is hope. Believe me no one is without fault. You may honestly think most of this is her foult. But if she would feel safe and trust she will open up, and I am sure you will find her answer something you have thought was all settled long ago. Do things that are totally different to show her your love. It might be your last chance.
