• 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.

Post until I get back from an appoint and other things...

What? Standing up guys?
I didn't make the dates, other people did or the guys just assumed.

I remember one night my friend set me up with a blind date (without my knowledge), my mom made arrangements for me to go out with this "nice young man" and my brother told his friend that I would go out with him.
I skipped out the back door and went to the mall. That was one of many incidents quite similar.
I spent the night with a friend once she had set us up on 3 dates for the same night. we went on all of them... burgers and fries for the first one, had to be home early....

the second we went to thte skating rink.... for about 45 minutes she went to the pay phone and called me to hte phone, we had to go home early again, then the third one was for 10 pm, and we went to a late movie...

Oh mom had great intentions, she owned her own business, and was active in church, just when she had her hystroectomy she went throught the chang and she was only like 40 then. That would have been in 1958 ir 59 and they didn't know what they know today. It just made he so darned depressed.
My mom crashed emotionally when she had a hysterectomy as well.

She tried being controlling, like these trips to the coast I've been on, I told her I was going, she told me I couldn't, planned stuff with me without talking to me first, stuff like that. She's gotten a little better

I was pretty much the parent

That's pretty much what I've seen of alcoholic parents -- the kids are left to raise themselves :(

My parents are not Christians at all.

Hopefully that will change... :prayer:

Okay, well, you left that part out!! I mean, it sounded like you made dates, just because you enjoyed standing them up! LOL

I had a lot of fun, but didn't date a lot. my father was a big prankster. along with the rest of the family...

once I had been to the dentist, had sodium pentathol to pull the tooth, the dentists son was 18 and wh picked me up to carry me into the recovery area, I told him I loved him, my sister in law was ther, she set up a date with him for me and I didn't know it.
