• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

Why are their very few profile pictures of the actual person on here.

How are we suppose to get to know each other if we do not know what you look like.

God made us with bodies for a reason, show it so we can see what you look like.

I know I do not want to spend a year getting to know others and then realize that they look completely different than I thought they would.

What if I had no picture up and some woman got to really like me and then a year later they see me and realize there is no way that we could be a companion because I do not fit the look they want.

Like I said, God gave us bodies which is as much as a part of what we are as our minds. Its not fair to show just your mind and not your body.




Here I am a few years ago. My nickname was 'BoomBon' . Ill see if I can round up a better picture of myself .

I share pictures on here with those I know well, which, since I've been gone for awhile, I don't really know anyone well anymore:( It's not because I care what others think about me that I don't post a picture, it's because I'm kind of a private person and don't want to just put pictures out there on the internet.

For me it is about safety. I am a mother. I try to minimize the ability of strangers being able to find me in real life. This is an open forum. People who never talk or participate can read everything we post and tracking people on the internet really isn't very hard with just a little bit of knowledge.
