  • 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

Ok, so there's this guy...and he's really nice, and lately we've been hanging out a lot and getting to know each other a little better. The thing is, I don't want to be more than friends, and I feel like he might be thinking other things. Is there a way that I can act around him, that shows that I want to become close friends, without taking the relationship any further than that? I don't want to just ignore him, etc. because he's really awesome, but I am not ready to be thinking about a relationship right now...help!

Yeah, you should probably tell him. Although he may just change your mind about it. Friendship is a funny thing between the sexes. Its like you can be a close platonic friend with someone then one day he does something that slightly changes how you look at him. Its like you see him in a different shade of light that is a bit softer and more inviting. When you ponder back on how things changed in the relationship you're not sure exactly what happened but you feel warm and glad it did.
