you ask:
"Just what is wrong with me? "
We are continually growing when we are in CHRIST. It is HIS WILL For our lives, not our will.
Try posting less detail, choose other prayer sites (everyone has free will including the site owners), go anonymously to post.
The replies here to you, are similar, everyone is pleased that you pray, that you have desires as God Tells us we will, however, mature Christians pray for HIS WILL BE DONE, not my will be done.
You are very angry with God, which pretty much kills off that others have free will also. Try to be joyous for the gifts that God Does give you. When you can't think of anything & HE IS ALL you have, then REJOICE, because,
THAT'S THE POINT.
HE IS our ALL.
You don't have to be perfect, there is no perfect, but GOD IS.
Rest with those thoughts. Try replacing my will be done with HIS WILL BE DONE. Until you can do this in your heart, I believe you will continue to struggle.
Sure, most all have dreams & desires, but not so fixed that they are inflexible & stop growing or refuse to let God Shape us, by HIS WILL.
In end times, we are left with little to nothing, material, or otherwise, but THE LORD REIGNS.
Hold to high morals (you do this), but instead of clinging to desires of those you love with what you want, cling instead to GOD. Then it's HIS WILL & their free will. We are not God, we have to rely on HIM.
Those that are last will be first in Heaven. New Order.
To expect things to be as you wish here is not normal. To desire them to be is. The scope is focused on Heaven, God's Will Be Done, then rejoice with all of your might that it is so. We are blessed when we see the beauty in what IS & THAT IS GOD. HE IS our ALL.
You have to get to this point to be mature as a Christian.
Doesn't mean giving up on dreams & desires, it means being mature enough to realize that they are all HIS WILL For us, & we are only a speck in the big picture. We do matter, however see the larger picture, God Is All & we are in this journey together (free will).
You have to back down with the demands. Make your desires known, pray, then give thanks daily for all you have. Don't quit on God, He Is Not quitting you (that one is the biggest).
Also, stop being angry with God. Others do find this offensive (me included). Normal to be frustrated in situations that are not going as you would like, but maturity is working HARDER to rise ABOVE our trials. There are always trials in life, ALWAYS. The point?
Turn to GOD. That is the point.
what is wrong with you?
you have not yet realized that God Is Going to allow all of this to work out to His Glory by His Will. Rejoice in this. REJOICE.
It will be fine, God's In Charge (not mel, not site owners, not your bfriend, or your mom who smokes cigs... just be happy.. you know how, you do, just do it).
God Almighty we ask that Mel, be thankful for all she has & it may be YOU, that is all at times we have, & this is more than we could ever ask for without YOU we would not have Etneral Life. We praise YOU JESUS & look forward to YOUR RETURN.
Rejoice in THE LORD.

I registered and posted a request on a site today. Soon enough, I got SUSPENDED on the site! I contacted the person running the site, and he said this: "I suspended you because I am concerned about a repeat of something that happened before. it becomes disruptive." "A repeat of what?" I asked. He said: "someone who was going through nearly the same thing as you, almost identical, a few months ago." And he believed it would end the exact same way some person has done. Then he said this as well: "all kinds of things go on here, and i cant let them all play out. faked suicides, site attacks, people posting every hour for the same thing, praying to dead saints, kids playing manipulation games, and on and on, somewhere about 1-3 people per day get banned." He believes I could be someone else that could be disruptive. "After all these years i generally get a feel for when something doesn't seem right from administrating this site." Why judge me when I haven't been on the site for less than a day? I tried to get a definitive reasoning from him, but I could not get one. So I gave up. I could not understand what I did wrong, but since that was his decision so be it. Then he replied: "Yeah. I'm pretty sure I see where you are heading." I said "Only God can see it... not a human." "Fair enough", he said. Then I said "God Bless you." and I added as a little joke, "See you on May 4, 2038 at 10:52 pm. Apparently that was what the email told me when I'll get my account back!" And there it ended...
Let this be a lesson: never trust all prayer sites. They could ban/suspend you out of fear or some thing that someone else has done and fear you will be the same way. I have never felt so pushed off, especially from another Christian. And a prayer request site no less. Pray for him to take whatever it is that is bothering him away. I don't know what else to say here. I feel betrayed and disappointed. And angry as well. This week... this year... I seriously do not know what is wrong with me. Just what is wrong with me? Oh well. God bless.
