Author	Thread: Separated???????
Admin	Separated??????? Posted : 23 Aug, 2011 09:31 PM Sometimes I run across profiles where the status reads separated. I wonder how you all feel about communicating with someone that is separated? I will hold my opinion to see what others think. J G. Post Reply
LovingAltitude View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 23 Aug, 2011 09:39 PM I'm assuming you mean male-female. Considering this is a dating site, most come for (at least in the long run) a romantic type relationship. So, no, I don't think it is right to be pursuing a 'relationship' with someone being seperated, seeing as they are still legally married. Of course this is a complete generalization over all the situations. Yes, there are some situations where I would say differently. Post Reply

And if they're divorced, then it better have been for a very legitimate reason...otherwise I won't have anything to do with them. I know that might seem harsh to some of you, but I don't believe in divorce under any circumstances except for the case that Jesus mentioned. Post Reply
View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 12:40 PM I totally agree with both statements that have bean made. I am surprised that "separated" is even a status on this site. Someone who is separated is still married. The institution of marriage is sacred. I wonder how those who are on here trying to find someone else values marriage. Post Reply

View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 09:05 PM Very true. Our culture has made it more a status than the way God intended. A man and a woman joined together as one flesh. Divorce is made easy, and more people living together out of wedlock. People get married thinking that they will be together forever, but a trial or a disagreement comes out. Thus leading to a divorce. then the man and woman go to another and the cycle goes one. It may stop, but it appears to be a game to some people. A marriage should always be centered on Christ.

LovingAltitude View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 09:18 PM It does seem to be a game or a cycle to some people, but let us hope that those are non-Christians. I do think though, that we have to love on everyone, and understand that in some situations (such as infidelity) one person in the marriage had no control over that. Post Reply

Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 10:22 PM "LovingAltitude", I'm not sure what exactly you meant by that last statement...but it didn't sound right to me...because everything that we do in life involves a choice. For example, cheating is a choice. Well anyway, I'm not sure what you were meaning...so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt by allowing you to explain before coming to any conclusion. :) By the way, I have people outside the United States blocked from sending me messages...but I've been curious as to why you've viewed my profile 3 times now...LOL :) If you're interested, now is your chance to let me know. If you're interested I might unlock my account so you can send me messages. :) Post Reply
LovingAltitude View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 24 Aug, 2011 11:24 PM Ah, I definitely didn't mean it in any negative way at all. I agree that everything involves a choice. I was meaning that we can't look badly on (for example) a woman who divorces her husband because he was unfaithful. Situations like that. [I thought that your take on this, and some other issues to be interesting and wanted to check out the man behind the mind. As for the 3 times, what can I say, Im forgetful?] Post Reply

Posted : 25 Aug, 2011 12:28 AM "LovingAltitude", I had just been wondering if you were interested...I guess not...LOL :) By the way, I wondered if maybe you were thinking about something like that. And no, I don't look down on someone in a situation like that...because that's definitely one of those situations that's beyond our control. Forgetful at your age...come on now! :laugh: Post Reply
LovingAltitude View Profile History	Separated??????? Posted : 25 Aug, 2011 08:59 AM Hey now, i never said you did look down on people in those situations, I was just saying that we shouldn't because that is beyond our control. See, its all cleared up :) [And I never said I wasn't interested. I find conversation to give me a better idea of how interested I might be than just reading a profile] Post Reply
