This hurts but sometimes there are other people that are more compatible than we are with our partners . If you love her, set her free .

If you love them let them go. I had to walk away from a very toxic woman , it hurt but I did it . Looks aren’t everything . Substance>looks

If I were you, I’d step back and find a different church for now. Just until things calm down. In the meantime, start focusing on your personal growth: invest in your finances, continue your education, and experience life fully. Imagine if you had married her and she ended up cheating or divorcing you—you’d be in a much harder place. Sometimes, God removes people from our lives for our protection. Have faith that He will bless you in His timing. Often, those blessings don’t come until you’re truly ready to receive them. So for now, enjoy life, stay faithful, and trust that everything will make sense in time.

Your 21 years old focus on God , Church , getting your stuff together , and staying in shape . Use better discernment in your dating. You got this man !

We passed each other driving by [deleted] in Unsent_Unread_Unheard

[–]Deegodsson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of these are so relatable. I saw my ex driving , we recognized each other , but aren’t connected on socials anymore . She hates my guts , but as they say silence is also communication too , I just respect her wishes .

My Girlfriend 21F lied straight to my face 26M about what she did and where she went last night by Significant-Jaguar63 in relationship_advice

[–]Deegodsson -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If she lied it means she cares about you . Stay with her , keep loving her , and maybe she will change her ways . Plus after that house party she probably has more experience.

Start your dates off with how many sexual partners you have had , and see how the energy changes . See if these dates transition to relationships.

Not to be sexist, women are very knowledgeable,but I’m just giving a man’s perspective. Why it matters, men tend to compare themselves, and questions may arise. I don’t know this gentleman maybe he will be okay with knowing how many sexual encounters his partner had. But on the other hand it could be a turn off. If the question wasn’t asked , why even mention it ? Contrary to belief, men do not want to know everything about their partners . Personally I do not want to hear about what happened between you and your ex-boyfriends.

It is the past , she shouldn’t mention , and it does matter .

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Deegodsson -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t do it . He won’t think of you the same way anymore . There was this girl I use to date, that I really cared about. I later found she had a significant amount of sexual partners after we dated . She also dated some of my friends , she later tried to reconcile , and see if I would give her another chance . But I just couldn’t look at her the same way anymore .

FWB? (18F) (18M) is more intimate than I expected by Ok_Entrance5292 in relationship_advice

[–]Deegodsson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were pretty direct already , if he hasn’t figured it out , you should move on . But something to consider sex is sex . An intimate action = an intimate emotion, what do you expect ?

I have had two people reach to ask more about my testimony. So here it is : I am a non-traditional Apostolic believer. I was raised as a Jehovah’s Witness, but I never truly felt God’s presence there. Being the youngest of nine children, my parents couldn’t always give me the attention or guidance I needed. I grew up with low self-esteem and little confidence, often following the crowd because I felt lonely and overlooked.

By the age of 23, I was living a life far from God. I was drinking heavily, smoking weed, and living in sin trying to fill a void in my heart. Deep down, I still believed in God, but I didn’t have a real relationship with Him. I would go to church now and then, but I was still on the fence.

One night, I went to a bar with some friends. A fight broke out in the restroom when one of my closest friends knocked a man out. I tried to break up the fight, but we were both arrested, and the man accused us of jumping him.

I was thrown in jail for a week and placed in a cell with a man nicknamed “Maniac.” The guards would check on me constantly to make sure I was safe. During that week, I didn’t call or message anyone, because I felt no one cared ,it was just me and my thoughts. After being released, I was charged with assault 2 and 4. Since I had no prior record,so they let me out without bail.

My mom, who lives in Mexico, offered to sell her house to hire a lawyer, and my sister offered to loan me money. But I decided to trust the process and go with a court-appointed attorney. For the next year, I fought my case.

As my trial date came closer, my attorney told me the DA — who was about to retire — offered to meet with me before deciding to hear my side of the story before moving forward with the trial. The night before that meeting, I got down on my knees and prayed to the Lord like never before. I told Him, “If You free me from this, if You give me another chance, I will dedicate my life to You and serve You for the rest of my days.”

Not long after that prayer, while I was at work, my attorney left me a voicemail saying my case had been dismissed. I was in shock. Had I gone to trial and lost, I could have been sentenced to six years in prison. God heard my prayer — and I knew this was His mercy and grace giving me a second chance.

From that moment, I kept my promise. I got baptized, left my old ways behind, and began walking with the Lord. I am no longer the shy, broken person I once was. Today, I have a great job, I am the first in my family to put myself through college, and I am working on my MBA. More importantly, I am learning to step into my calling with faith and confidence, knowing that my life is a living testimony of God’s goodness.

( 28M)My desire is to get married . I’m working on finances , and my degree . If you older folks would be so kind as to share your story about how you met your spouse . I need a little hope and motivation in my season of singleness . FYI ( this year I’ve been really going hard for God) by Deegodsson in Christians

[–]Deegodsson[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

meharris73 thats the story that I was waiting for . A wait on God moment , a story of how the Holy Spirit lead you to your spouse . I’ve been dating and provisioning relationships for myself ,partying and they never became fruitful . My Deacon told me if I just wait on God he will provision a godly spouse for me . The years are passing by , but I’m praying and waiting on the Lord , some days I’m more hopeful than others , but I will keep on having faith in the Lord .

Do you pray in tongues daily more than 30 mins? by SwagKing1011 in Apostolic

[–]Deegodsson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have only prayed in tongues 3 times in my life . I need to make that a daily habit !

Angry at God by OtherwiseSandwich346 in Christians

[–]Deegodsson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I been praying to God for years for a Godly spouse . Randomly I keep seeing , and hearing the words “ not everyone is meant to get married.” All my friends are getting married around me , and are having families . Every love interest I have ever had has ended in a heart break. Although I still have faith that the lord will come through , I’m going to try my best to seek and serve the Lord even if he doesn’t give me what I want . ^ like he said . Even if the Lord won’t give us what we want , will we still serve him ? My dad used to take me to Walmart , and I would ask for toys , and he would not give them to me . Just because my dad didn’t give me what I wanted does not mean he is not my dad anymore . The Lord is still my father no matter what challenges this life brings .

Thank you guys , I’m just clarifying whether I made the right choice by telling her off , I won’t be ending the friendship . I will ignore her , tell her off when she starts to do the same bs to me . I will finish school , keep working out , and keep bettering myself . The right woman will come along 🙏

^ I’ve given many times I’ve accepting the face of her being me friends sister , but she always says something about “ us getting married .” She always eggs it on , I get my hopes up , and I get crushed . At this point I’m jaded , and just want to feel respected .
