But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV
Happy Sunday everyone!
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.
James 1:2-3 NIV
As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
Ecclesiastes 11:5 NIV
I don't know if this has ever been brought up, and I apologize if it has, but is anyone interested in maybe like a prayer meeting? or just a general bible study/fellowship? I know we don't all live in the same area but I think maybe we could do it once a week through Skype/call/group chat. I...

Good morning to you both!
I've gone through this stage and truthfully, it differs from relationship to relationship. The two of you are a little better off than me at the moment. Me and my SO are currently on a 'break' because he needs time to fix himself.
In the beginning of our break, I...
@Savasana I'm so sorry that happened to you. Did you happen to ask him to elaborate on what he meant by 'moved on'? I can't help but feel like you deserve an explanation, even if it's hard for him to talk about or explain. I know it might be a lot of ask from him but you deserve something other...
Hey @Linzee
I'm right there with you. Feeling alone and isolated.
I checked my phone in the morning to see if he had contacted me. Nope.
Checked again at lunch, still nothing.
So I'm putting my phone away for the rest of the day because I care bear to be disappointed when his name doesn't pop...
That's exactly what it feels like, walking on eggshells because I don't know which version of HIM I'm going to get. He can be his old joking self, and the next, be completely down and serious.
I'm glad he's open to talking to me and meeting with me. He said a lot of things this weekend that...
@Savasana, I am also extremely glad I found this forum as well. It's a relief for me to know that I'm not the first one going through this and I'm not going through it alone. Reading your post hits me so hard. My SO told me the same thing, during our break and again this weekend. It's hard...
Small update:
He called me Weds night and asked if I was coming over for the weekend. We spoke for an hour and he seemed like his old self again. Happy, talkative, affectionate.
I get there Thurs night and he opens the door, avoids eye contact and goes back to playing video games. The entire...
This speaks volumes. I'm in a similar situation. I understand that this post is almost 2 years old, but was wondering if I could possibly message you and ask for some advice or guidance. Just anything really. Thanks in advance.
@Sweetpea76 - I'm willing to wait for him. I understand that seeking assistance is the first step and I'm glad he's doing that. I just feel so disconnected. In his phone call last week, he said all the right things and I felt so bad that he had to reassure me that everything was going to be...
None of my friends have any military experience or dating experience with the military so I'm just looking for some advice or support.
Met my guy a while ago. We live 4 hours away from each other so it's semi 'long distance'.
He's a combat vet who is currently still active in the military...
