Meh, I think most guys are surprisingly simple. Beer + boobs + cars seems to describe a depressingly large number of people...

You'd think so. In theory, that's definitely the easiest way! I just wish I'd said it to him the last time I saw him - I knew it'd be the last time I'd see him for ages, it was just the two of us, the opportunity was perfect, yet I just couldn't pluck up the courage. It's weird, I feel completely comfortable around him but I still can't tell him how I feel.

Maybe I should change my earlier 'guys are confusing' comment to 'clearly, girls are just as confusing too'. I even confuse myself!



Thank you very much, I might take you up on that offer later on And I understand what you mean about the lying about your feelings - I've been guilty of that before and when you look back on it, it does seem ridiculous, but at the time, it's the most obvious thing to do.

I think people just need to remember that God has that special someone picked out for us from before we even were created. If we pursue God first in everything then all of our relationships, romantic or otherwise, will fall into place.

I know, I'm trying really hard to keep my focus on God It's a challenge though sometimes!

I'm not very good at trusting God

I'm the same. I try, but it doesn't always work. I don't like being out of control, it's my biggest issue, which is probably something to do with it. Letting God take care of things isn't something that comes naturally to me, I prefer knowing exactly what I'm doing - not that I ever do! I try my best though.

Just so you don't feel left out, I have found you (and RK) on Facebook

You were supposed to try and boost my opinion of men, not lower it

I'm not like this. I just want to love Our Lord and His Blessed Mother and find a wife whom I can start a family with.

Oh dear...I find it strange thinking that people know who I am, but I don't know who they are

Lol, I think all people are just confusing. Which I think is a very good reason to get to know someone as well as possible before making judgments about how they ought to be behaving...

If you're in that kind of situation with him though, it at least sounds a bit like he likes you. Then again, I infuriate some of my friends by assuming that any meeting (normally in a coffee shop) between a single male and female is a date, so maybe I shouldn't be listened to... Maybe write him a letter? That's easier to do, and the agonising/feeling stupid about it only really kicks in when it's irreversible

I know, right? I have to just ask Him every day to forgive any time when I honour myself more than Him. I seem to focus on myself so much! I hate complacency, it's a constant battle to keep my eyes off the world and on Christ.

Thanks for the advice. I know it's more H&R than Christian Society, really, but I feel like I'm more likely to get sensible advice from you guys!

Thank you!

Just an update for you all: after a terrible start to my day, it's now going quite well (yay) and my house is sorted (YES!) I passed my exams, the sun is shining, and my flatmate turned up today and helped clean a good proportion of the property (I move out today) so there was very little for me to actually do.

I had a really good pray this afternoon to, which has greatly relieved my stress situation! xxx

Glad day got better, real answer to prayer!


Ahhh but what happens if God wants us all to remain single and go and be a missionary?!?! Firstly I don't deal well with insects, and secondly I want a family! It's much easier trusting God's plan if it follows ours



Debbie, sounds proper stressful over there! Message me on fb/here/text/whatever if you need a talk! Sorry wasn't around earlier to give advice, was at work, but putting in my two pence "if it's meant to be, it'll happen"...I'm useless at relationships, as you well know!
