  • 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

Yah. I guess I really just need to talk to him, but wouldn't you know it, he hasn't answered my call! I told him yesterday I'd be busy today, yet he still calls me in the middle of the day...he was supposed to be at a football game in Oklahoma, so I was thinking what on earth does he want? My inkling is that he needs help with an assignment but is going to wait til the last minute to ask because he thinks I will help him anyway because I'm too sweet not to. We'll see about that! I know of someone I'd gladly save my emotions for and who is worthy of my attentions, but he's not interested, and I don't think that is going to change at any point in the future. I am just angry...I hate it when people try and walk all over me and expect me to be at their every beck and call. This guy really brings out a tendency to nag in me, I get so frustrated with him...he waits til the last minute to do his assignments for school and also everything else in his life it seems, he doesn't take care of stuff (right now he has a ticket he hasn't paid for and will have a warrant out soon if he doesn't pay it!), he is 25 years old, yet he is totally financially dependent on his parents. He doesn't even appreciate it and can't really understand not having any money or having to pray and pray you'll be able to make rent. Ugh!!!! *pulls her hair out* lol

So a good Christian guy who is also a friend of mine called me up a few weeks ago and began calling me nearly every day. We would flirt and spent quite a bit of time together a few weekends ago. I thought we had a good time and thought he might be interested in dating at some point. BUT, he had recently broken up with this girl he was dating who he just thought was the ONE for him. After I helped him work on a paper he had due, I didn't hear from him for about two weeks. Nothing. Then, he wanted to talk to me last night. He was acting flirty again and said he enjoys my company and then went on to talk about how he is now just friends with this girl and he's not sure if she's the one the Lord has for him. He seems so fickle! While I don't mind being his friend, I do not want to play games. I don't even know if I want to date him. I have a lot of concerns about that prospect. I didn't really know how to respond to everything he was saying. I think it made him mad that I wasn't talking more, but I wasn't sure how to respond! Should I tell him what kind of impression he has given me? Why do guys do this?:scratch:
Why do women do it? Its mixed signals. I think you like me but I'm not sure... 'no green light' Hey, I met this girl the other day...

Heh, welcome to the club, sweetie! I know a woman or two like that, myself!

On the one hand, you seem to be very emotional about someone you aren't even sure you want to date.

On the other hand, why are you wasting time with a guy who frustrates you, and isn't making himself clear? If I were you, I'd quit taking his phone calls, quit spending time with him, and find other things to do. What does he have to do to show you that a relationship with him isn't going to work out? How long are you going to hang on?

Living I think that you are really attracted to this guy and right now you are trying to tell yourself that you aren't. You had a post earlier just saying that you wish some other guy would receive your attentions and this guy is financially dependent on his parents etc. etc. etc. but you still keep talking and thinking about him. I think you need to a) talk to God about this, and b) talk to this guy about this. Thats all you can do.
