Hi Everyone! This thread is dedicated to the lovely @Poinsetta, who specifically suggested this topic. To be honest, I hadn't even thought about Valentine's Day coming up (that's how hopeful I am about the future :ROFL:) but am glad she suggested this because as I started to pray for ideas, I...

Hey Everyone, We do these types of threads now and then, and we are long overdue for one that includes current members. As the title implies, it's time for an infamous CC Roll Call! But, we like to give it a little twist. :D Come join the fun!! Let us know not only that you're here, but also...

Hey Everyone, I was thinking about some issues that have come up in the threads about what singles want in a potential spouse. I was also thinking of my grandparents, who were married for 64 years (until her death,) and how much different things were then. They knew each other all their...

Hey Everyone, With an interesting conversation going on in another thread about women who want men to earn certain salaries (which is a common topic in singles communities,) I've always wondered why the other side of the coin is never discussed. I never hear people talking about what it takes...

Hey Everybody, If you don't have your morning coffee, beverage, or routine/ritual of choice, how would you best describe yourself? Feel free to use words, pictures, gifs, memes, and anything else to describe your "Before I've Had My Daily Tonic" state. Here are a few suggestions...

Hey Everyone, We all know that coffee is an almost essential part of most people's morning routines. But with lawsuits being filed over things like energy drinks and Panera Bread's "Supercharged Lemonade," I'd like to start a conversation about caffeine in general, no matter how people...

Hey Everyone, We see posts every day saying, "I'm here to make friends!" Of course, this is wonderful and something I'm sure we almost all came here for. But what does "friendship" really mean today, and how has it changed over time? Does being "friends" mean you're on someone's personal...

Hey Everyone, If you're part of the Singles community, whether Christian or not, we all know that at some point, our looks (and weight) are going to be a major consideration. No matter how Christian someone claims to be, looks, to some degree, matter, unless the person is blind. (And even then...

Hey Everyone, Here in the USA, winter storm warnings are raging across the country. Blizzards and freezing temperatures are sweeping across many states. In my own area, we had a power outage last week, but fortunately it only lasted a few hours. (Many thanks to @Talljake and everyone else out...

In most every situation I encounter (churches, Christian dating sites, forums, etc.) it seems to be a given that older men, Christian or not, almost unanimously want a much-younger woman. This post seems to tally up the vast majority of reasons: Please note that I DON'T want this thread to...

Picture the scene: You're sitting down to a beautiful table setting, just about ready to enjoy your classically cooked ham and cheese omelet, and it's looking something like this: But as you begin to sliced into that folded half moon of fluffy goodness, the person across from you is digging...

Hey Everyone, For those of you who've been around the forum for a while, you'll know that just about every year, we get threads asking whether it's evil to celebrate Halloween and Christmas. We hadn't seen any yet this year, but fortunately, someone was kind enough to dig up an old thread...

Hey Everyone, For a few years, I lived in places where the seasons didn't change, and the years felt like they were going by in one long stretch of time. Although the locations were lovely, something about the fact that the trees never changed color just didn't feel right! Growing up in the...

Hey Everyone, I borrowed the term "Permanently Exhausted Pigeon" from a recent Ted-Ed video about people's natural sleep/wake cycles. I am interested in hearing how people would classify themselves: Early Bird, Night Owl, or Something in Between, and how it has affected your life. I have...

Hey Everyone, I subscribe to a daily devotional, and a particular news story it mentioned really tangled up my heartstrings: "Just before Easter 2018, a terrorist entered a market, killing two people and taking a third woman hostage. When efforts to free the woman failed, a policeman made...

Hey Everyone, Just a note on the title -- I was trying to do a parody of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," but alas. :LOL: Anyway... All the talk about meatloaf in Mingle #5 got me thinking about how much foods differ among cultures, and how we react to unfamiliar foods. As pointed...

Hey Everyone! We're back in business! :) In Mingle Threads #3 and #4, we came up with a whole bunch of ideas of what to trade @Talljake for his Granny's baked goods... Which inevitably led to this conversation: Now it's a not-so-well guarded secret that meatloaf has long been one of THE...

Hey Everyone, Let's go on a secret mission! I'll take a break soon so people can catch up with other threads, but I had to post this one while the idea was still fresh! :) Jacob graciously gave his permission to allow me to use his stories as a target, er, I mean, topic, so here we go! In a...

Hey Everyone, Welcome to Part 3 of our Singles Forum Mighty Mingle! We have a lot of married friends here, so EVERYONE is welcome to join this thread!!! My goal in making this a series (like a favorite TV show) instead of stand-alone threads is that I'm hoping to build community. I don't want...

Hey Everyone, I have an idea for a more involved thread in this series, but won't have time to work on it tomorrow so maybe we can try this instead. It's that time of year again, and I'm just now starting to see ads for baking holiday treats. I just know this discussion is going to rock...
