so many are diagnosed and think life is over. but there's a whole different face to this illness. what have you been able to achieve after the diagnosis? how has it changed your life for the better? (i'll tell my story later, but i want to hear from y'all :cool:)

Being a TA is something no orientation can prepare you for. The one thing I notice they don't tell you in those orientations is that students will hate their mark. It's so frustrating and sometimes upsetting. What have you had to struggle with as a T.A.? What did you learn?

when i meet a guy, i'm always dancing around the religion subject. it got the point recently that i had a few weeks past before i realized he was jewish. i don't know why it's so hard to ask or mention mine at first because this is really important to me.

i think that i'll pray that my future relationships be purposeful with an eye to marriage. i guess i want to make it clear to myself that i don't become some one's girlfriend because of a few dates. even if he pays for them all. it will have to be a conscious, mutual decision. i guess i'm...

i was reading boundless (was bored) and i realized that "biblical" courtship is a way to mircomanage and avoid/reduce risk. it's weird but it's like they're claiming if you take out all of these factors, including ourselves and our youthful ways, that we'll have something good and safe... like...

what are they and how do you avoid them.

so i wound up in a relationship inadvertently. i hate when that happens. here i am considering us nothing more than friends and then there he is trying to make out with me. i know people told me i'm this sexual being and stuff and that he LIKES me, but i wasn't looking at what we had like that...

how is virginity an asset. in recent relationships, it's just been something that shows my naivety and inexperience. i feel awkward and unprepared, and there's no one patting me on the shoulders telling me way to go. there are people telling me and treating me like i'm a sexual being. but funny...

nevermind

i guess men don't like when the discussion goes to this area, but i'm really feeling the need to ask a certain guy about his intentions. we've tried dating TWO separate times and being friends ONE time over several years -- that's THREE attempts -- and it's always fallen apart. he recently...

we attend weddings as guests or as the wedding party, and i'm wondering if you've learned anything. the last wedding i attended, the minister told the groom that when his new bride annoys him, fights with him, or becomes unsatisfying to him (to paraphrase) that it doesn't make him any less...

:wave: i recently volunteered to take an acquaintance i meet in class to our university gym. i go semi-regularly and she wanted someone there for her. she's in a wheelchair. i've noticed her moving her feet but other than that i don't know anything about her condition. - what should i...

anyone not like wearing rings? i don't. maybe it's a skill i'll acquire if need be but i find myself annoyed by its presence.

for the last several years, every time a guy my age asked me out, he always had a friend beside him or nearby. is that odd? what does that mean? :scratch:

we definitely know how to pray petitional prayers. on the single's forum, we can definitely be found praying for the arrival of our true love and that we'll be in a good state to receive him/her. we know how to close our eyes and just tell the LORD what we want. but let's try relational...

why does christianity sometimes seems so complicated and contradictory? sometimes i feel like i've been sold a bill of goods only to open the package to find something contradictory and upsetting. :doh:

i recently heard that being baptised in the Holy Spirit means that you have to speak in foreign tongues and stuff. if i haven't, does that mean that i'm not saved or that i don't have the Holy Spirit with me? crossposted from wesleyan forum

some of us may be sitting around, wondering what's wrong with us? why don't we have dates? why aren't we engaged? is there something wrong with us that we have to change? some of us may notice that we're big on criticising the other gender. from why girls won't give a decent guy a second...

[rephrased] there's a serious campaign over getting married. these people hold marriage to this pinnacle of human achievement and encourage us to get there at any cost. they explain away parts of the bible, call singleness a sin and unbiblical, and just are relentless about their...
