Midnight Confessions

[tourist]

I confess that my new phone got soaked with water when i put my dirty clothes in the washing machine for washing...I forgot that my phone was there i called my friend if her husband can fix my phone but i think he can't fix it anymore ...

I am using an outdated phone my old phone good thing i didnt throw it lol...too hard to type a message specially long messages it is small but praise God I got something to use while I can't buy a new phone yet...some things I need to take care of first I don't know what is going on lol but I still believe for good days ahead of me

That happen to me once. Try putting the phone in a plastic bag and surround it with rice. The rice will absorb the moisture inside the phone. Probably will take 48 - 72 hours but worth a try. I need a new phone too. I've been using a simple Tracfone but might try a cheap smart phone. Good luck.

HI! Sir Tourist I did but I did something that I should not do...after a lil while of drying it...and vacuuming to suck the water from the phone lol I charged it...my friend said the phone short circuited already I should not have charged it


Phone is not so much a necessity for me it is just I can bring it with me wherever I go thanks sir Tourist ❤

That apparently works well if your phone gets wet putting it in a bag of rice and the moisture being absorbed by it. I hope to never have to find that out by personal experience.

Yeah, that type of situation is to be avoided.

I finally finished all the documents i needed for my house and the last time i saw it ,it is 80% done already...the construction is still ongoing. I confess that for the first time in my life i feel like finally there is something I can really call my own...for myself...




Grateful to God for His guidance and provisions. My house motivates me to work hard more every single day it helps me push more and dream more for myself... I have devoted my life to my family and to people who needed me...i gave my youth,my time ,my strength,my money..leaving nothing for myself. ....so when i decided to take care of me...i thought I've been,it's been too late already....


Thank God for the strength,courage and wisdom HE gave that day there is no doubt I still can,and I deserve something for myself also, and that I need to take care of myself also

I will say a prayer that all goes well with preparing the necessary documents and the rest of the construction. As a home owner I know that it is a good feeling to have your own place and pray for all of God's best for your home. I had much more money in my single years but gave most of it to my daughter and various charities. However, I do not regret doing that. I am grateful to God that all of the bills keep getting paid on time. Yes, thank God for strength, courage, and wisdom. I too thank God for this each day. This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. I enjoyed your positive upbeat post very much and I appreciate the person that you allowed God to become. Good report.

I dont want to be married, and I dont know why married people think thats all I hope for just because im single.
I dont hope for marriage at all, at least in this fallen world

I dont know why people think theres a huge eligible pool of people desperate to marry, because, the majority of people I know dont.... they've got other more important things to think about.

and its not wedding planning. the stress we could do without. I mean who wants to fuss over what colour nails you wear and have dramas over it? Even the bridesmaids dont would rather not (and have to wear hideous dresses anyway that they will wear only once and cost a bomb) . Even the people that do get married complain about being married so Im like, I constantly hear about your complaints about marriage why then do you think *I* would want to go down that road as well?!

But how do you say that to someine tactfully. Single people dont usually advise married people - divorce! it will solve everything and you can become single again and be much happier. What we do is say well you married each other so you work it out together.

so why do married people seem to think the solution to a singles problems is to get married?

I was filling out two applications for two different single sites one was online and the other was a letter writing group. As I was filling out both of the applications and trying to honestly answer the questions I came to the conclusion I wouldn't want to date me so why would anyone else. I felt I should get my act better together with God and both applications went into the trash.

I don't think married people really think everyone should get married and I know that getting married doesn't solve anyone's problems. I felt and feel for most people we should be more working on being more like Jesus and getting ourselves into a better situation to be a strong partner for someone and then if that special person came along to get married to then we would be ready. If the special person never shows then we are better people reflecting Jesus better to the world. I think in either case it is a win, win situation.

I dunno about the strong partner thing.
I think that God inheritantly made us (humans) weak...certainly weaker than Him SO THAT we could learn to rely on Him.

and then in our weakness, He is strong.

this is totally different from the thing you hear in interviews saying whats your strengths and weaknesses, like you can rattle them off just like that so that your employer can check for weak links. And the whole 'dont show any weakness' kind of thing falls flat because a) if you were really strong, why would you even be needing a partner or employer OR SPOUSE and b) if you were weak why would you be telling someone else all your weaknesses, expecting them to compensate for them which in most workplaces, they will not do. OR EXPECTING YOUR SPOUSE TO LOOK AFTER YOU LIKE YOUR MUM OR DAD

 

[Lanolin]

sorry dont mean the whole caps thing.
its just, no I dont need to be treated like a little girl. I dont need another dad. I already have one!

but the whole husband wife thing I see in a lot of marriages when the husband infantilises the wife (could be the age difference, I dont know) and Im thinking that must be hell to be treated like that!

the reverse, where the wife is like the mum to her husband I see a lot of as well. Im like what, you have kids and your husband is like your kid too?

I cant get my head round it.

This is a common challenge with so many people. It is particularly challenging for introverts.
You are absolutely on target with the need to grow both spiritually and individually as a person before seeking another relationship...
I personally think it best to meet someone organically rather than hunting thru a singles forum... Although, exploring such a forum can do wonders for your self esteem and gauging the pulse for what type of people might see your value or potential worth.
Agree, it is much better to learn your self worth along your own spiritual journey.
There's a book and a group seminar called "Rebuilding" that is a very helpful means to help regrow self confidence along the way.
Joining groups such as meetup groups in things you enjoy, hobbies, interests etc are also a great way to meet people organically...

Thanks for the info and it might be helpful to someone else. I on the other hand met my mate here on CC after several years later from the tossing of the single applications. I felt that God and I had developed a better relationship and also felt ready for my husband now getting close to the 7 year mark in November... God's timing was best for me.

I am a firm believer that if you don't want to get married then you shouldn't and if you don't want to have children then please don't. The second issue is the main reason my first marriage ended. My first husband never wanted to have kids and I originally wanted 4 so I told him we couldn't get married because of that issue and he said he would compromise with me and agree to 2. Then after the marriage a few years later told me if I ever got pregnant he'd divorce me.

Well I didn't feel like I should force him into something he obviously didn't want even though he lied to me to get me to agree to marry him. But I should not have to not get what I wanted which was having a family so we did divorce.

My former comment was about me not a potential partner I personally felt deficient in my standing with God and where I was spiritually and it really had nothing to do about having or getting a partner. I needed to work on myself building my relationship with God. I didn't feel I would be a good partner and didn't want to be a drag on someone else and their spiritual life. After a few more years went by I was in a much better place and was really surprised that I did get married again as it wasn't planned and I wasn't really praying for it as I thought I'd never get remarried.

I divorced at 24 and did not get remarried until I was 59....but I have loved it and love my husband and very much enjoy his company. We can get fussy cause we are old and don't always feel great but I enjoy the journey we have been on for the last 6 and a half years.

 

[Lanolin]

thats terrible I dont think anyone should ever lie to their spouse. You dont want marriage based on a lie. I think two people should be in agreement and not one person pushes someone else to do something they dont agree with.

so when I hear marriage is compromise its like oh so your marriage is basically all about lying to each other, and neither really gets what they want. Lust and covetousness again.

I think with God its about what He wants for you and if He wants you to marry then He will provide the spouse, its not really about what YOU want. and generally on His timing not yours. You just need to trust that His will is always better than what you could ask or think.
