Admin	How Can I Encourage Someone If I Am Outside Their Age Requirement? Posted : 25 Nov, 2010 08:56 PM This may make no sense, but here goes. There have been many times I have read a profile of someone and I have been moved to sorrow, joy, surprise...and I want to encourage them and let them know I am praying for them. If I am outside their age requirement range, I cannot contact them. (I just figured this out after sending several messages.) Is there any way to post to people that I may not be aware of. It is on my heart to do so. Thanks, Lisa Post Reply

Posted : 29 Nov, 2010 10:18 AM The only way that I know of (and it's somewhat...ok, very...dishonest) is to change your age so that you are within their age range. Just be sure to change it back right away. The other way is to post something on here asking them to contact you. A couple folks have done that to me. They basically say "BC, would you send me a message so that I can send one back to you? I'm outside your age range, and I want to send you a word of encouragement, but don't want to post it publicly on here." Once communication is open, the age barriers no longer apply. Post Reply

That's what I did, and I just specify in my profile text what ages I'm looking for. Post Reply

I must admit, I changed my "drinking status" (there is no choice of 1 or 2 a year) once to be able to write to someone. I did change it back immediately! Sometimes, I just want to let a person know I am thinking of them! Lisa Post Reply

I read that if someone is not in your "requirements" but you contact them, then communication has started and will continue. I will try to send you a message to see if that works. Post Reply
