I do not know what that means... could you clarify, please?
Hi again Ms. Magenta....Let me 'splain lol! :) I am not in a relationship --well I at least put the brakes on it. I decided to cut back on working 50+ hours per week to have work-life balance. Then in doing so, I slowed my pace down and so I met a gentleman unexpectedly--really not expecting it....I thought we connected on certain levels where it was really important....I cannot explain it...Then COVID-19 quarantine happened. So, some of the ladies here enlightened me and said just focus on building a friendship for now. Sounds like a good plan to me! God will make a way in His perfect time.....

As a hugger myself, let me just say that for your own safety as well as hers/his, you just have to not be a hugger for a while. I just recovered from Coronavirus in the last week and I got it from shaking someones hand that had no symptoms at the moment, but less than 8 hours later he was at the ER with a handful of symptoms. I know not hugging is difficult, but my family is very blessed to have come through this with only one person ( my dad after coming down with covid pneumonia) ending up in the hospital. You can bet that we will be more careful for a long while.

Pipp is a Corona Virus survivor. Christians getting some street credit.



I pretty much try to ignore everything, unless Vans Shoe Store, mountain bike park lift operators, or government officials with guns tell me, no mask, no pass. Than it's time to listen.

Hi fellow wise Christians... How do you know this is the Christian man God has chosen for you, when you are fearful of getting close due to COVID-19? When do you ask about it? Should both get tested at the same time? And then when do you get tested again? since you could be carrying or develop the virus later on and be asymptomatic you know? I am naturally affectionate and a hugger.... Now it is like 6 feet apart hand wave or virtual hugs?! Your thoughts? How do you navigate this?
why get 'tested'? why get deceived??

There's a risk in everything you do in life. If you are extremely afraid of contracting the virus, or are immunocompromised, I recommend waiting until this pandemic is over to date. It's very painful getting emotionally invested in someone and not being able to meet them in person.
