So I've been at church camp 4 the past week, & I met this sweet guy. So "the guy" was in the youth group that I went 2 camp with & we had fun all week. On Tuesday a girl in our group started 2 cry during worship, & I comforted her. She started 2 tell me about "the guy" & how he broke up w/her. She told me that she still liked him & that it kills her 2 see him flirting with other girls. Well, I decided to be a good friend and dodge him, so I wouldn't have the chance to flirt with him. Well, that didn't work too well, b/c we still had to sit together during chapel & all. Well, I kept on getting more attracted 2 him b/c of the way he handeled Thane (a one year old) & I still like him. So last night we went 2 go see baptisms take place & he tried kissin me on the lips, but I refrained. That killed!! He ended up just kissin me on the cheek. What do I do now? He lives close 2 me, so if I did decide 2 go out w/him it wouldn't b a problem.

I didn't know the girl before church camp, & I met him at camp. I was tottally focused on God the whole week. I have been relying on God to do what his plan is, & I guess I will just keeping doing that. Thanks for everyone responding!!

i feel you did the right thing. you can rush into something thats worth it.if he likes you the way you like him then he won't rush you. when you go home let it grow before you let him know all your true feelings for him. it might even make him like you more bc he has to try to win you. you sound like you have a good head on your shoulders witch is very hard to find in young people these days so stick with your instincts, it'll all fall the way god planned for it to.

Were you at a church camp or Sodom and Gomorrah? Why are you so focused on boys during what is supposed to be a journey toward God? Stop concerning yourself with this guy and if you happen to see him outside of this camp, because he lives close to you, then date him then. In the meantime don't pursue him while at church camp because you are not only insulting the girl he dumped, but you are also insulting God.

i had a friend's exboyfriend spill out his guts to me once, and i liked him but i value my friend's relationship enough that i said no to him. i explained to him why.
i said "there is no guarantee that we will stay together, and [she's] my friend. since you two have a history i cannot do anything against her, and i know it'll hurt her. i like you but i value my friendship with her very much. if we are meant to be it will have to be waay in the future..."
that was an excellent decision i see that i made now. but i know someone who 'betrayed' the friend because she liked a man so much, so she traded the friend in for the man. she married him and had 4 children. the friend resents her to this day.
so i guess it's a choice between the guy and the friend. what is the more important risk? mine was my friend.

easy .... explain to him you would prefer to wait until you were in a better setting to pursue a closer relationship. Church camp is a place for exploring your relationship with Christ. He should respect that. It's not a no, it's garnering yourself the proper time and place to give him and that relationship your full attention.

I think you missed the entire point of the church camp. Instead of focusing on God, you've been focused on dating and relationships.

Yea. I would basically move past him, he is not a very nice guy. He is not even acting like a christian at a church camp should.

was the girl a friend of yours before you went to camp? if not then i'd say its ok to go out with him as long as you don't rub it in her face or do it in front of her until she has time to get over it.

No, he's movin' too fast if he tried to kiss you on the mouth during chapel. That's not appropriate.
