Ok I HATE being single!!

[dayhiker]

I can see cyber relationships working including cyber marriage. I'd tell a person that wanted that, to go find it.

I've had some cyber relationships. None were even close to marriage. I found them very enjoyable. I've not had time lately to maintain a personal cyber relationship. I do try to maintain a cyber friendship here, I really like the sharing, the give and take that goes on here.

Sorry if I discouraged you.. I am probably the same I guess.. but I love company.. being around someone even if I cannot always have those conversation with them that I wanted.. I mean we can laugh.. and smile and hold hands.. maybe shout if they are willing and I wouldn't think badly of them.. lol no whispering secrets.. or talking in the dark.. lol.. aww..

I will pray for you ok.. I just want you to know I care or I am trying too..

I'm not discouraged PC, my life is what I want it to be right now. So observations about my life, but no complains from me ...

Im not sure who Peace is responding to in her post but no-one here is discouraging me. Im discouraged by not being able to find a mate, hence me starting this thread! Interestingly I heard a message last Sunday about discouragement and the main point in the message was that we can always find encouragement in our wonderful Saviour So yes Im discouraged that I cant find a mate but I look to my Saviour and He gives me much encouragement

Having a cyber relationship doesnt mean not having other friendships in real life. The cyber relationship is an extension of all other life relationships. Its good to widen and broaden our relationships. The new communication technology has changed how we relate to each other. I understand that this can be difficult for people to cope with but lets embrace new ways of relating to others!

Peace its good that you are praying and caring for people, this is such a blessing

Hope,
I totally agree with you.
My GF is leerly of cyber relationships. So she wants to limit them. I did cut back a lot from what I used to do online. But I wasn 't going to become a hermit so I said I had to keep some contact thru the web. This site being one of the main ones. This site not only gives me a change for some cyber freinds, but helps me to have a feel for what Christians are thinking about the issues I'm interested in.

 

[hope_is_last_to_die]

Day, yes its a good way to find out what other Christians think about different issues. Getting the balance right as to how much time we spend online is for me important. Also I like the opportunity to be able to contact Christians from different countries. Maybe my cyber wife might live in USA, do you know other Christian sites where I might be able to find a cyber wife?

Well we don't have to talk about how I feel about cyber relationships, but remember my "how do you know if they're a serial killer or not?" So I agree with her to a point, but the ones you know from this site for the most part are pretty harmless I think, right?

 

[dayhiker]

Oh, ya, serial killers ... or harmless ... not talk about extremes ... lol

I really want to make a crazy comments, but I can't think of a way to type it and make sure it comes across as just a crazy comment!

 

[dayhiker]

Hope, I don't know of a site that promotes the idea of cyber marriage. I suspect you'd have a talk to a lot of women online to even find one that is interested in that.

Yes I suspect you are right but its probably no more difficult than what Im already experiencing in trying to find a mate. But I always live in HOPE

Yes Peace we are cyber friends and yes I pray love is returning between you and Justin. Please pray that I will find a mate that I can love and who will love me

blessings dear cyber friend

Hi All I'm a newbie... searching the web for somewhere to go and hang out! I'm posting to this thread because I hate being single too... I feel so depressed about being alone and raising 2 children on my own... I know God has blessed me in so many ways and I hate to seem ungrateful, but being alone without someone to cuddle and to share my everyday life with is really taking it's toll on me... I'm know it's not God's choice for me to be single... he sent me a man and unfortunately the man made a choice not to marry me... longgggg story , but God sent me many dreams to let me know that he put us together, but he does not control our decisions... does this mean I am going to be alone forever...

 

[dayhiker]

How old are you kids? My two boys are grown, late 20's/ One is married and the other has a 3 y/o girl. So I'm a grand daddy!

 

[jamandcrumpets]

I have two daughters, dayhiker... 6 & 16 I LOVE being a mum...

 

[dayhiker]

Ya, I enjoyed raising my boys as well. Good times.

I hate how fast it goes! I can't imagine what I would have been without them... I pray for a beautiful husband to complete our family and provide a well balanced family role model for my beautiful girls... I feel like I'm losing the battle though!

I'm really going through a season of "needing" to be with someone (physical as well as emotional)... I'm so very proud of who I have become since first coming back to the Lord only 8 years ago... The person I am now has grown so much since then and I love how he has changed my view and my feelings about being with someone for all the wrong reasons. My desires are not overwhelming my heart anymore..

The thoughts are still needing to be reigned in though, my actions are starting to match my heart... Does this make sense?? It was a bit hard for me to put into words...

Welcome! and yes your thoughts make perfect sense to me, of course I don't know what THAT means lol. If we choose to work on ourselves when we are single and devote ourselves to a relationship to God, how can that not be good, right? Of course we are human and all need people to love us. It's harder some days than others IMO
