Lil Red Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1348947642' post='2488120'] If you have been in love you would understand. [/quote] oh, hey, look what i found! [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1345406464' post='2470219'] Another thing I was just thinking about was that I need to be very careful about feelings I have for guys based on looks and such because I think that is what lead me away from my vocational path. There is especially this one famous guy that is quite gorgeous and have to be careful in knowing that his gorgeousness is just because of God's amesomeness. Otherwise, I could get too wound up in attraction instead of God's call. God is before feelings!!!! Yay![/quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annie12 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Thanks for the love and understanding. But really, I was coming here for advice, not pity and I would appreciate some help instead of lip. But apparently I'm not going to find help here so lets just end this thread here.

Basilisa Marie Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1348947459' post='2488118'] no, I say two rosaries a day so God will sent me a husband. But I put all of my trust in God. I was just whining here! lol! (But from this thread I've realized how much people like to rub things in people's faces here. I'm talking and it seems like no one wants to listen to me.) [/quote] But Annie, we ARE listening to what you post here. We're really just trying to tell you that a LOT of us have been there, and learned from similar experiences, and are trying to tell you what we've learned so that you might have an easier time of it. We're not rubbing it in your face (well, some people have snarkier attitudes than others). And for what it's worth, I'd back off on saying two rosaries a day for God to send you a husband. That doesn't sound like trusting in Him. Maybe cut back to saying one rosary a day so that God will protect your future husband from sin and help him grow in holiness instead? Personally speaking, switching from praying that God send me a husband to praying that God protect my future husband helped me become more satisfied while waiting for the guy to get here. Honest, we're just trying to help. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for making me feel worse than this thread already made me feel... I'm done with phatmass... (for now) [/quote] There's no need to feel bad. We're all dumb here. If you look through my posts will will see any number of post-drunken-night-debacle threads. But you just need to relax a little bit, learn to laugh at yourself, and absorb what people are telling you. There's nothing wrong with what you're feeling.

PhuturePriest Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1348927666' post='2487971'] Me ----> <---- this post Look, I want to get over this guy, but every time I try to...I CAN"T!!!! And I know God's time isn't our time, but I can't help feeling the way I do right now. Believe it or not, I'm not as crazy about this as I was when I first met the Guy. I'm impatient and I [i]REALLY[/i] wish I had a fast forward button on life. I don't even care about having a boyfriend, I'm not needy like that. But I feel drawn to this specific guy and it's killing me that he's not catching on!!! [/quote] Some quick dating advice: Guys are slow. We're not mind-readers, and we are especially terrible at taking hints. Sometimes a woman needs to just say up-front "I like you." It's as simple as that. Some women get frustrated because they think men are saying no to them by not taking them up on their hints, but usually it's because we don't even know you're hinting. If you like him, tell him. On a side-note, I'm happy I'm leaving because this thread has taken up almost all of my likes, and I'm sure as I read on it will and I will cry at my inability to like other ones.

PhuturePriest Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1348948498' post='2488131'] Thanks for the love and understanding. But really, I was coming here for advice, not pity and I would appreciate some help instead of lip. But apparently I'm not going to find help here so lets just end this thread here. [/quote] Ooh, I have some more advice on something I actually have tons of experience in! If you come in for advice, expect tons of satirical advice. Learn to read the advice through the satire and you'll be set. A year ago I would've thought everyone was a jerk, but there is a special way of writing here at Phatmass and I was able to pick up every time a person was giving actual advice. Through all his jokes, Winchester was just trying to convey you were going way too fast and that you needed to slow down. He was making fun of you, but sometimes we need to be made fun of so we can learn, and of course so we can read later on and realize how funny the jokes actually were.

I'm talking and it seems like no one wants to listen to me.) [/quote] Ok, here is the thing. You are not going to get any helpful answers in this thread because there are no answers that are going to help you right now. Not in the mindset you seem to be in at the moment. God always tells us to wait and see. Come and see. You do not want to wait; you want to see it [i]right this second[/i]. Every single one of us here understands that feeling, and we can all commiserate, but we cannot tell you some foolproof formula that is going to give you the results you want. For now, in your situation, the only thing you can do is wait, pray for God's plans to be made known to you, pray for the grace to carry them out... and then lighten up a bit and have some fun. Just live. God has something in mind for you, and He will tell you when He is good and ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You've been given tons of advice. That you chose to ignore it is not our fault. That we don't tell you what you want to hear is also not our fault. If you mean something like this as a joke, the lame board is a better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaime Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 [quote name='Annie12' timestamp='1348948574' post='2488133'] good job lil red. Thanks for making me feel worse than this thread already made me feel... I'm done with phatmass... (for now) [/quote] So I'll be a bit condescending. I think 10 years from now if you were to pull up this thread, I think you'd feel like everyone was actually pretty nice with you. Including Red. Nobody faults you. 18 can be a little melodramatic at times. Most of us can relate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
