It pays for Single Christians to date other like-minded people

Searching for the perfect mate can be one of lifes greatest
challenges.
After all, forever is a long time. You want to make the right
decision.
Dating itself can be really trying. It can be hard to find the
right people. What if they dont share the same values and
beliefs that you do? How do you handle that and when?
Wouldnt it be easier to know ahead of time that they are
Christian, just like you?
Wouldnt it be easier to know their respect for God and other
people, values and beliefs, mirrors your own?
I know my own dating experiences were trying at best. My stomach
used to churn before hand. Id be so excited to meet new people,
only to cringe as that feeling was replaced with absolute,
crushing hopelessness as the person demonstrated a trait I knew
I just wouldnt be able to tolerate.
If they said something snide about children and my being a
parent, I knew it was over. If they werent pet people, it was
going nowhere.
If they were vulgar, ignorant, not funny or if God didnt have a
place in their life like mine, what could we possibly have in
common?
A few incidents come to my mind. The dental hygienist who
chain-smoked. The girl who didnt shave her legs, her armpits
and didnt wear deodorant (it took a few dates to begin to
figure this one out).
I remember one Friday night where I thought I had met someone
Advance Or Retreat?The Christian Scriptures strongly imply the Age of man ends 6,000 years from ..... with real potential. She was highly educated, respectful and
thoughtful. Several dates later, she showed up at my house with
an open bottle of wine, already drunk. And then she stormed off
when I mentioned concern that she had been drinking and driving.
So how do you find the right people? How do you at least give a
first date a chance, by taking the time to get to know people
coming from a similar place as you?
The workplace can be a popular source, if there are lots of
employees and some that believe in God as you do.
But what if you work too much and dont have time to meet
people? Or, what if meeting people is quite a scary experience,
and youd like to find a like minded group of people, that you
can get to know via email first before actually meeting?
The answer, more and more, is the Internet. Never before has the
worlds millions of singles, been able to find sources of other
singles who are just like they are.
The best part is these specific sources of singles can be
pre-determined ahead of time. For instance, youll know youre
talking to someone who is Christian, because you found their ad
on a Christian singles site.
Make sense? Much easier than trying to make these discoveries of
values and beliefs over coffee or dinner.
You can further refine your search by specific age ranges, kids
or not, divorced or not, white, black, location, income level,
career path, Yankees fan or not (very important!), etc.
I finally found my Soul Mate through a personals ad on a
website. We lived in different communities but on the same
island (20 miles apart). More importantly, our hearts, beliefs,
values, sense of humor and general outlooks were very similar.
And we knew that before ever meeting.
It was wonderful courtship. We married the next year. And to
this day, many years later, we laugh that the first date never
ended.
You too can have this experience, when you find a source of
like-minded people to start to get to know.
