  • 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.

Some of y'all may have read about me "fighting for my g/f". It has been tough....During last week all our conversations were her being angry, hurt and mad with me...questioning "why & how" venting her anger. I would feel literally "beat up" afterwards. At that time we agreed that after the weekend we would not talk....so she could have space and not take her anger out on me. Well this weekend we had to do a yard sale together (alone) and even though it started a little rough, I felt we had a good time together. For the 1st time I felt she let me in....we even hugged and had a small kiss.....She called me that night just to check on me and the next day after church because the message and music was directed at our situation. I decided since I had through the weekend, that I would ask her out to a movie or dinner, not expecting a "yes" Well she accepted and we went to dinner and was planning on a movie. The dinner was nice, she greeted me with a hug, and had another nice evening together. Unfortunatly she got pretty sick and had to go home....she had some vehicle problems so I helped her and made sure she made it home. We talked one more time and she said she was glad I asked her out. For the 1st time I thought that maybe she saw hope. I thought it was the start of something nice.....but since she hasn't called like we talked about. I guess I thought since we had such a nice weekend we would build on it. How should I take this.....I am not calling or e-mailing like I said....but I just thought things went so well she would want to continue that way......any advise, ideas....should I call her....wait.......????

hey mnati,

glad the date went good except for her being sick. Hmm maybe don't call her like you guys have agreed before, wait for a while and keep on praying. I'd say maybe a quick email, asking how she's doing, would be fine actually since she was sick in the weekend (?) But really just a quick one... try to leave her alone in the meantime. You need to focus on God too, that way you won't be worrying and anxious so much. God bless!

I'm not saying it's not okay to talk with your ex. It's not okay when the person your with has to find out through another person, let alone never told about it. I guess you've heard this a housand times.

You just can't regain that trust so quickly. You need to give her time to think about things. I think she's praying for the Lord's guidance, regarding this matter. May your heart be true to the Lord. For if that should be, then I believe He will lead her to you again. Do not forget that she is also a sheep in the Lord's flock. And the good Shepherd shall always look after His own flock, protecting them from harm. When you come to the Lord, ask Him to search your heart before you ask anything else of Him.
