  • 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.

Hi

I'm a 23 y o Adelaide girl who is housebound with severe allergies. This shocks most people, but I try my best to be positive and live as normally as possible My reaction to chemicals is anaphylactic shock which is deadly, but only so if I'm around those things which affect me. Staying home means I am protected, being in my chem-free environment.

The hardest part of all is dating. Being 23, I'd like to believe I will have a partner; just that God wishes me to break past this challenge, along with my other challenges. Because I am housebound, giving birth or having a child would be very difficult, hence why I label myself, "childfree". This is where dating is a disaster! Men I meet want children most of the time, the rest just out for casual sex. Sex is a difficulty because I am allergic to all contraceptives on the market and surgical procedures; plus the fact that although I have been intimate with one person (before illness ), I wish to save myself for someone special. The fact that the only contraceptive safe for me would be my man to get a vasectomy, means a lot of men are chased off because there is no chance of me agreeing to a casual encounter.

But, still there is the challenge of finding a man whose responsible, respectable and compassionate who is willing to sacrifice their fertility for a girl who has nothing to offer but heart and intelligence. Qualities often disregarded in a material world. I'm pretty, funny, easygoing, passionate, intelligent, and keep busy with hobbies and a dream of writing success, but these mean almost nothing to today's fast-paced world.

I cannot go to church, so attending church is not possible for me. My mother always taught me you can worship anywhere, and so I wait and wonder what God's plan is for me. I hope out there somewhere is the man for me - but where do I look! Your typical chatroom male is not the moralistic male I'd like!

Thankyou for listening, S

Hey there bubblegirl23,

I am in somewhat same boat that you are in about the alleriges. Mine are quite bad @ times and I too have to stay @ home when the things that cause them to go haywire are really strong. I have been on all kinds of meds and injections for them with no avail. (perfume and smoke are my worst creators) and the perfume smells got so bad against me that I contemplated stoping going to church. But like Songz777 said for the Lord nothing is imposible. THis is the first year that I have given up ALL my meds. and yes they still drive me nuts @ times they have gotten ALOT better. And I belive that it is because I asked GOd to help me with them.

IMO

Peace

Welcome to the boards. I hope you stay for a while. I have been a member for a short time and really have enjoyed them. I have learn alot. Many of theses people that you will meet here are good. Many of them I would like to meet in real life.

I have alleriges too, but not to the extent that you have. What I have learn is this. Always trust God, he has not made a mistake yet. I on the other hand have made tons of them. God is the God of possible. Remember that. Turn your fears over to God, if he can handle mine he can handle yours.

I don't know I would trade a fast pace stupid life for someone who is funny, easygoing, and at peace with themselsves. Write that book, write it well. Do the best you can with it.

Thats all right. There will be many more to come. A lot of the time when I am working on the computer I don't have my contacts in. So enjoy a good laugh, you might need it. It is your soul sing to you.
