And here's some of the feedback they've given us:

I found the tips very useful, as is your website. I have learnt a lot since my marriage ended. Like many people, I really did not have a clue when I was single and married on trust. It is very hard to start again when that trust has been broken. I may not remarry but when I join friends first I hope to gain friendships. It is so hard not to feel isolated and good to know that organistations like yours are out there. God Bless.

I realised that I have committed all of them, sometimes without realising it. It made me feel rather depressed and wondering if I would ever be able to turn things around.

Very worthwhile, and I can think of some unattached friends whom it would benefit greatly! Unfortunately some of them haven't got into home Internet usage yet!

All advice is very good

I found all the emails gave very relevant information regarding situations with other people

Good information - thank you!

It was very encouraging and would be nice for everyone to learn and know about the sins because it happens all the time and most of the people are not even aware they are doing it. - I didn't know

Very interesting

100% common sense.

Thank you for the useful resource.

I think you have really hit the jackpot with keeping in contact and using the 7DS. It is so easy for me to log onto your site and then forget all about you but the 7DS kept me thinking. They were good advice and so I am really tempted to make contact - I just need to sort out the costs!

Generally helpful. Sometimes it is a case of the obvious being brought back to the centre as it is easy to get into bad habits, sometimes without even realizing it.

This was my first contact with Friendsfirst and I have been very impressed. I shall almost certainly be in touch again in the near future.

I felt they were good, if a little basic (but then some people need basic advice!)

I believe the 7 deadly sins are very honourable and i would like in this way to treat people righteously the way i expect to be treated.

Keep things like this coming! I wish I knew about things like this 20 years ago.

They apply to both genders.

I found that I agreed with these. I believe these provide useful ideas for interacting with other people.

The one about not making a list of qualities in your ideal partner.- I guess it depends on the heart attitude with which you do it. I don't think you should reject getting to know someone because they don't instantly seem to fulfill all those criteria but i actually think it is a positive step of faith to make an honest list before God of the kind of partner you want. often we are not specific enough when we ask God for something, but he likes us to be. He wants to give to us, but he also wants us to state exactly what we want. I have heard many testimonies of people who do this, bringing it prayerfully before the Lord and they do end up with exactly what they asked for, -so much the Lord knows the desires of our hearts and honours them. That said you need to be walking in a steady relationship with God to be putting the right kind of things on the list in the first place, so that you don't ask 'amiss'.

Excellent service but due to circumstances not quite ready to use it just now.

The emails are free to receive - so why not sign up now and give your relationships a spring clean.
