I'll go first... I don't like getting too close to other women (christian or non-christian) because I'm afraid of rejection, and I don't want someone to try to take advantage of me.
I did read "rejection" the wrong
way the first time I saw your post.
I thought it said something else. Lol

Never mind...

Re: Confessions

After what we went through I still keep church leadership at a distance and honestly I don't trust many and I don't care what denomination. Oneness or Trinitartian. However still I have a special distrust for Oneness pastors.

Re: Confessions

@ navygoat1998 wow, that's gotta be difficult! My prayers are with you. The Lord gives discernment in certain situations. Even in my own church I have gotten a couple of dirty looks, one from a 12 or 13 year old and another from an older lady, (on 2 different occasions) and I've gotta tell you it hurt my feelings and they were JUST looks. Made me question myself, if I was doing something wrong at first. The Lord let me know, "The problem isn't with you, it's with them" (or something like that) So he reminded me I just need to shrug it off, and give it to Him. And one thing that He wants me to know that if I am to win other people to Him, show them His love, and help others; there are time when I'm gonna have to let my guard down. And that's a reality as a christian I think. The good thing for me about getting hurt and being rejected is when the Lord comforts me and babys me. (And trust me, I can be a big ol' baby sometimes!) Wish I could give you all big holy-ghost filled hug right now!

I am a single guy. Sexual temptation is still a problem for me.
