Admin	Texan girl afraid to lose close family ties. Posted : 19 Nov, 2010 05:58 PM So this afternoon I was signing on to this site to look around some more and my nephew came up to me because he wanted someone to play with, so I asked him if he was going to help me find a husband. He got real quiet and said no. and I asked him why not and he told me that I would forget all about him. Needless to say, I immediately assured him that that would never happen, and played a few games with him instead. I do want to get married and have a husband and kids of my own, but I'm really close with my niece and nephew now and I don't want that to change. So part of me is afraid to find someone, and I'm not sure how to balance that inner conflict. A part of me is very impatient to find Mr. Right, but another part is afraid that he doesn't exist for me. Post Reply

Posted : 19 Nov, 2010 07:26 PM If you are that close to your niece and nephew, Mr. Right will recognize that and respect that. Ideally, he would become close to them as well, and not force you to choose between them and him. Post Reply

The two of you should be able to find some arrangement where you wouldn't lose family ties. But there's no such thing as Mr. Right. That's a creation of the secular world and is not at all biblical.

View Profile History	Texan girl afraid to lose close family ties. Posted : 29 Nov, 2010 10:29 AM Are you just trying to instigate, write nonconstructive criticism, inappropriately post, hurt people...? When I see you have responded to a brother or sisters' personal sharing or requests for help, I feel very uncomfortable. You have posed some thoughtful topics, certainly worthy of debate or reflection, but seem to be oblivious to compassion or sensitivity. You, sir or madam, have all the tact of a freight train! You are a borderline bully, and you appear to need to see yourself in print. You quote your scripture very well, how about trying to apply your knowledge in a more supportive way? You have been presented with a grievance (Matthew 5:22-26). This is as close to bringing this to your attention privately as I can come, as you have not answered me before. (Matthew 18:15-17) Now, how will you respond? Post Reply

Your nephew is young, so lots of things can rock his boat. When the Lord blesses you with a partner, then your nephew will have an Aunt AND Uncle who love him dearly! :applause: Post Reply

But you can't live life depended on what other people (including family) say; you need to live life depended on what God says in The Holy Bible. You the Bible as your guide post. If you do your best to follow God, then no matter the outcome, you can't be blamed for doing wrong (unless its willful sin). God knows your heart. Post Reply
