  • 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

who knows, sometimes when we rush in, we may end up sticking our heads in the barrel. :)

Maybe we shouldn't be as concerned about it, it'll come when it comes, if not, then there's nothing to be done about it.

*give thrive a hug*

i know a girl from church who's about your age, she's told me the feeling she has too for being a single. She has faith in God, so right now.. she's put all her energy into church ministry. um..... if you didn't think about it, then it wouldn't be that big a problem. (well, that's how i look at things anyway).

That's just it, I don't think about it that much. But when it's brought up, or I do happen to think about it, it raises all these questions. I'm probably thinking more about my relationship w/ God than any other kind of relationship & I just don't want those thoughts & questions to be things that hinder it. I do agree that focusing on ministry IS a wonderful thing! :)

I have been singe all my 20 years of life. I have some ideas of why this may be, but mostly it's due to my non-personable side.

I am very close with my friends and friends that are woman, but when I comes to guys I just don't feel comfortable. And NO I'm not gay.

I just find it very hard to become close friends with a guy. With all the guys I have known that I've found myself attracted to I end up doing something that will terminate the relationship.

The closeness scares me I guess.

I also get stupid around guys. That's my biggest weakness, at this point in time. I am a confident, intelligent, and beautiful woman, but when I'm around a guy that I like, I become a moron!!!

You know I get the clinginess, stupid giggles, and unintelligent conversations started.

And, the main issue I have with this is that instead of overcoming this I just avoid relationships with guys, at least the ones that I find attractive.

So annoying.
