On our trip to Colorado my parents got in a huge fight with us kids in the car and said things like, "Well I don't know why we're still together then." They stopped the car, worked things out and then apologized to us. Good visual of marital arguments and solutions and what (NOT) to do.

Was on the worship team for one yr. Great time falling in love with God until the end. I was pushed out by the new leader of the worship band gossiping about me and got burnt out. Would carry on until my trip to Wales and then would go- kaput.

Both in the worship team, good healthy relationship. He was clingy though and possesive and messy so I broke up with him in May at a church camp.
-
Two week trip to Wales. Great time emotionally and spiritually. After trip start pursuing a way to stay over for the whole summer the next summer.

Met Owain in Wales and started dating in September. Distance was too hard, and he was too busy so it was a mostly mutual break up (though I was hit more emotionally). We remained friends.

Date until May 4th, 2007. Break all boundaries, have sex. Was told I was loved and then had that verbally retracted. Would cause problems later with trusting new relationships and almost cause me to break up with Casey.

Emotionally abused, self esteem hurt. Broke boundaries, but did not have sex.

Start kind of dating Kevin, never official. The way he broke it off though was to stop talking altogether to me when he moved to A&M in July. Was shunned by him for having sex, haven't experienced grace yet for my sin.
-
He allows me to experience grace for sin, and tells me it will never hurt him as it hurts me. He loves me just the same. Almost broke up because I was afraid of the closeness I felt. But I let him into my life. We didn't kiss till December.
