Just curious, guys.
What is the greatest pressure you're facing in your life right now? What would make it easier on you?
You guys are awesome!

| The pressure to be accepted by others... like wanting others to not judge you. you feel pressured to look or dress or act a certian way... |

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

Comparising my morals. Everybody seems to be hooking up in this new high school, while I'm alone. Sometimes it's hard, but I know Jesus has something better in-store for me in the end instead of this qucik-fix relationships. |

| The pressure to be accepted, bluntly, but not just to be accepted, to be liked, and to be found worthy of praise,compliments,etc. |

the biggest pressure i have right now is trying to keep my relationship with my boyfriend pure and focussed on God, after being together for quite a while it can be really hard. the physical aspect especially there can be huge pressures in. i'm also trying to understand how guys minds works, which is really hard at times!! sometimes i kind of wonder why i am trying so hard, but he really is an awesome God-fearing guy!
Loved by God,

Faythe,
Let me strongly encourage you to keep your relationship with your boyfriend pure. Make sure you set boundaries and don't spend a lot of time alone together, because that's just an invitation for trouble. Take it from someone with a messy past, it's not worth the pain later on. You can have a fantastic sex life once you're married, and if you start married life off the right way - as a virgin - it makes it even more fantastic, because that's the way God designed it.
Don't you give in, girl! You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you!
-Julie

Thanks Julie! from the very beginning of our relationship I set boundaries and he was really good for respecting them, he asked me first if he was allowed to hold my hand or not. right now I am trying to focus on us enjoying the little things together (holding hands, putting my head of his shoulder etc.) I have already set one huge boundary that I will not let him kiss me right now, I think that is a huge step that I definately am not ready to take!! and he has struggled with it but has completely respected the boundary I set.
Thanks again!! God bless!

i'm basically struggling with, hmmm. gosh, it's so hard to put into words, y'know?
since early july has been very, very hard for me. spiritually speaking, i mean. i've felt farther away from God and my friends at church [who are my only friends, seeing as i'm cyber schooled at home]. i'm so grateful for them, don't get me wrong. but i fell hard and fast this past summer and the climb back up has been really rough and tough. i can see i've come far from where i was say back in, mid-august, but there's still alot i need to come to terms with inside of myself. and i don't even know what that stuff is! i'm guessing it's just the hurt and pain i went through, i guess i'm still healing from that broken relationship, without having to go into too much detail with you all.
i guess i'm still trying to find myself in God again, instead of finding my identity in others, like i had.
