Is Starbucks a Good Place to Meet Single Women?

[Cold]

Thank you. Especially considering what has transpired within the last half-hour (God indicating to my roommate and I that He has a specific match in mind with me but someone/something isn't ready), I definitely think I was right to back out of what didn't feel like God was in it.

But as logical as it sounds, I don't think the bigger church is the way to go. First off, I tried that in my 20's without a hint of success, and second, it feels like trying to force things just as much as pursuing the possible relationship that God wasn't in.

I don't know what is going on with my apparent honey-to-be. A previous spouse dying of cancer? More refinement with him and/or me so we don't kill each other? I don't know, and I have been waiting a very long time. I'm starting to wonder if it will even happen before we both hit retirement age considering the way things have been going. Sigh. But what good is it to doubt God's goodness and care?

Thanks for the shepherding.

You know, that killing each other part gave me shivers and made me imagine an unhappy wife with a knife. Now I'm 100% sure I made the right choice in never wanting to be in a relationship. Lol

Well, at least you didn't consider the Alabama route.

Now, now…

I mean... Uh... Nice weather we're having, eh?

 

[jennymae]

Alabama?!? Isn't that like another universe?

It’s the bona fide universe.🤬😂

 

[jennymae]

It might as well be, with everything I hear about it.

Those words definitely didn't come out of my mouth.

So what did you mean?😁

I was up late and slept in, so by the time I may have been ready to go anywhere it was
too late for coffee and I just made myself a good brunch instead and then had a nap

I'm rather covetous of your nap, TBH

Speaking from personal experience, he may be busy with something that being married right now would get in the way of. But it may not last forever.

Of course that's just a maybe. He might also be a big jerk and God needs to knock a few rough edges off him before he's suitable. I've known that to be the case before.

Haha. I plead the fifth?

Shhhh. Let sleeping Eppersons lie.

Steve's been here for over six years, and though not very active in all that time, I do recall
him greeting newcomers for a while a few years back. Maybe he has met someone?
I did not follow all of it very closely but do realize he took a lot of flak...
and just hope he did not leave on account of that.
