  • Prayer Request


    Hey peeps ... I'd like you to pray for a friend of mine and for myself.

    Yesterday was a hard day for both of us as a new guy she was hanging out with one on one (who sought her out to hang out with her) told her yesterday that he wanted to be "just friends" and didn't even act like the friend she was accustom to when they were hanging out.
    For me, my guy friend who professed interest but wanted to remain single so we were "just friends" has finally shown me thru words and actions that he really cares more about himself than about me.

    Basically, for our hearts ... neither of us want to play the dating game, and neither of us wants more "guy friends". We don't want to open up and be transparent with guys just to have them walk all over our hearts. I think she's doing a great job in her resolution on how to deal with him; I haven't decided what to do yet.

    Personally, I'm just tired of it all.

    If you don't mind me asking, what did she decide??? I'm intrigued!

    @ajforward007 - not at all ... when they met last night she wasn't sure what he wanted but he told her the "i just want to be friends thing" and she just said Ok, that's fine and they talked a little. She didn't really ask him to elaborate, nor did she ask him to explain why they were hanging out one on one like that in the first place. She also said that if he asks her to hang out one on one again she is going to say no. Which I think is wise.

    sorry to hear this sweetie :( i know how you feel though. these days, i love having guy friends yet i hate having guy friends.


    but anyway, i hope you come to wise decision as your friend did. maybe it won't be the same one, but certain things come first: glorify God. protect your heart.


    i know that's so generic, but that's the best i can tell you right now.  will pray for you and this situation though. *hugs*

    @shanella@xanga - and i agree with her decision as well. we have to guard our hearts even though sometimes it comes off as being aloof.  i pray that you find the best way to handle your situation as well

    Ladies, thanks for your thoughts and prayers ... please also remember my friend's mom, the same night the dude had "the talk" with her, her mom told her that her cancer - which was in remission - had returned ...

    I just hate guys like that. Well, just be friends. No intimacy at all. See how long he wants to hang out. If he truly wants to be just a friend, then he will stick around. That way you will have someone to talk to when you have a boyfriend, and need to talk to your "friend" about it. ha..
