• 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

The Final Hearing Date is Set...

You're left however you choose to be left, foodie. Stop carrying the guilt and blame and give it to God already. Does beating yourself up make you feel any better? What's done is done and you can't do anything to change it. Now, you need to focus on picking yourself up by the bootstraps and moving through the healing process.

I feel for you. I really do. I know how frustrating and hurtful it can be to realize that the person who made a covenant to love you til death do you part never really even cared about you - much less loved you. But, you simply cannot go through life letting HIS inability to love you rule you and define you. Don't give him that much power over you. Not when God wants you to know how much He loves you - let that be the power over your life, sister.

I am reluctant to ask, but you have mentioned this in open forum, so here goes......have you received any help with your OCD in the last few months? I earnestly believe until you get that more under control, you are going to struggle with turning your emotions/thoughts to anything less damaging. Even home bound people can get help with OCD in many fashions.

I will continue to pray for you.

I would rather chop off my hand than have to sign the final decree, permeating my initial decision to destroy our union, but it's glaringly obvious that my stbx is immensely content and he only wants the house back now.


In many states now you do not have to sign the papers. Not signing will not affect the legal outcome, but you may prefer to not sign if you are allowed that option. Check into your state to see if your state is one where you are not required to sign.
