I would just like to say thank you to everyone who has posted in this thread, because all of the replies have been very helpful. You guys have also been great listeners, and you've really helped me work through some things... although I think some things are gonna continue to be an ongoing...

Firstly... yeah, I suppose I am slowly evolving past the stage where I feel like I want excitement and adventure. I've had enough of that to last me a lifetime and some of it I didn't even ask for. And I find myself getting more set in my ways and the idea of change or being without a home...

I'd like to hear your thoughts. What would you say are the greatest things that make life worth living?

Yeah... plus, especially in this world, I have been guilty of devaluing people and being devalued by someone, too... all because, at the time, each of us found something... better. Also... there seems to be a VERY common trend these days where it's just... okay to block or get rid of people. In...

One friend I used to hang out with a lot said that, in her opinion, part of the biggest problem in this day and age is that there are too many people. I... can't help but wonder if there is some truth to that. More people means less land and other things to go around, and more... greediness to...

Yeah... I have been guilty of projecting too much onto others sometimes. My friend said during her lecture to me that I've had a way of placing any guy who would give me enough attention on a pedestal, and then projecting my disappointment onto them. I guess... in some ways, I've always had an...

It's... interesting for you to ask me whether I trust God or money (I'm assuming you're applying that question to me, too) because... that is something I have been struggling with lately. In fact... there was one time when I had a bit of a silver collection, and I ended up selling it off and...

Yeah... you may have something there. I also just know that... well, there were a couple of times during my youth where I was really depressed and I enjoyed some of the warm fuzzies that I got from God sometimes, so... I tried to fixate on God, lie in bed, and ignore everything as much as...

I... guess I would like to ask something then, which I have been wondering for some time now. How come it seems like, every time I HAVE tried to shift things over to make Jesus the center of my fixation and life to the exclusion of all else, that doesn't work out very well either?

Thank you. BTW, one thing I meant to mention in my previous post that I forgot... in response to the person who pointed out that if you live in fantasy, you're basically not living in the present reality, well.... I really feel you hit the nail on the head there, because... in some ways...

I want to start by saying thanks again to everyone who's posted in this thread. It has helped a lot more than you know, and... I would still appreciate prayers on everything if that's okay. ^^; I guess the thing is... another thing I have struggled with greatly is that I do not deal well with...

I will also admit here... I was going through a bit of a phase at the time where I deeply resented God. It seemed like all of my Christian friends who I used to count on heavily for support had pretty much left me, or become too busy to support or talk to me anymore, or some of them had even...

I temporarily win. ^^

I gotta say... I hadn't quite thought too deeply into the concept that.... well, it might be good in a way that it was one-sided, cuz... I have heard that things can be messier if you've had sex with the person or even if it had been two-sided in other ways. It's just... well, I have always...

Okay I'll just flat-out admit it... it's Norway. >.> I just didn't want to admit it at first because I also use this username in a couple of other places (though I don't think most other people I've known would necessarily know me by this username....) And I'm a bit embarrassed because my...

So... what would your advice be, if I admitted that I've been heavily obsessed with a small country in Europe just because of one guy I don't even speak to anymore? ^^; I mean... overall, I'm not even interested in learning much about the history of the country, I don't want to learn the...

Thank you for the kind welcomes. ^^

Thank you for the kind welcome and for the insightful words. ^^ I will need some time to process much of what you said, but... if nothing else, I can say for now that it really is a relief to know that I'm not alone. To some extent... I will also admit that I think... well I dunno, I think that...

So... I'll be straight-up and admit that one huge reason why I had an interest in this forum, and wanted to sign up, was because I noticed the Singles category. I'm not entirely sure what drew me to it. Maybe... at the very least, I was simply looking for a place to chatter about my experiences...

Hi, I'm brand new here and... I'm not sure what to expect. I'm not even sure if this will be my kind of place yet. ^^; It's been a long time since I've tried delving into forums of any kind... but I decided to give this one a try. I think one thing I'm hoping for is maybe... maybe I might make...
