  • 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 rule regarding AI content has been updated. The rule now rules as follows:

    Be sure to credit AI when copying and pasting AI sources. Link to the site of the AI search, just like linking to an article.

The waiting Game....

I'm currently rocking around in this boat too. I am a pretty shy person as well, mainly when I don't know a person well. I kinda have to test the waters, to see what people are like. That's where my problem lies, I just need to realize that females are like any other person and they're not some foreign entity.

Same thing about men with me is that they are human. Not a lot are like the macho, Clint Eastwood, silent anti-hero types.

I hear you there. And then there is a certain check in the gut or intuition that says "She's out of your league. You'll be turned down flat, brother!", which kind of forces me to keep my distance for a while, until believe it or not, the rejection does come and that same check in my gut says "See? I told you so!"

It's strange, when this is what you learn to expect, then all of a sudden you find a girl who says "yes", and you are blown completely out of the water and are suddenly in unfamiliar waters, which is kind of scary...

I know! It's like: "What if he says No?!, I'll look and feel bad about myself!" and "What if he says Yes?! What's the next step?" :D :thumbsup:
