Okay, first, disregard those answers thafr pepeole who don't know God, they don't understand.
Have you prayed about both these gentlemen?
The Bible, and I am not sure if you are Christian, just because you said "God," does not necessarily mean that you believe in the God that Christians believe or that you read the Bible instead of the quran or another text.
Anyway, the bible does say not to be unequally yolked.
It makes it hard when one spouse believes certain things and that other does not.
Take the concept of "heaven" for example.
If one believes that there is life after death and that you can go to heaven and one does not:
then, the one finds it important to get there and the other does not. The first may mourn because they feel that their spouse will not be going. So, they will continue to love someone who will not spend eternity with them.
Similarly, if one spouse views adultery or lying or stealing as sinful and the other does not: then there will be clashes.
There must have been a reason for you and your boyfriend to break up. Cool it with him for awhile.
Continue to pray and Ask for God's guideance.
I know that desire to have a mate. I am 38 and desire a husband.
But, making the wrong choice could have disasterous consequences. And, if you are like me:
Divorce is not an option. I want a partner for life.
So, be very careful.
You still have time to listen to God. If you feel you missed his voice or ignored it the first time, you are not married, yet.
Listen again.
And then, respond.
If the boyfriend comes to God and you believe that he is right for you, amabe that time away served its purpose.
Seek and ye shall find the answer!

It's only natural to be attracted to other men while still planning on devoting your life to another. And I've seen plenty of relationships last for years when one person is a devoted christian, and the other is an athiest. In the bible, it says that god gave us free will. I doubt he "wants" you to be with either guy. He probably wants you to make your own decision, based on the things that you find most important in a mate.

While I think it is fine to believe in God, I don't think he can help you decide who to spend your life with. You are the one in the relationship and only you know if it is what you want and need.
If you are tempted by another man, don't marry your current boyfriend. You will know when you are ready to marry and then you will not be looking at other men as potential partners.

This is not a religious forum - and clearly there are many different religions around here. I personally no longer consider myself to be christian though I was raised Protestant. My partners religion is not important to me - but I will never date anyone that is fanatic about the Church since I know they would have problems with my beliefs.

Dont ask God for dating advice, his one relationship can be described as 'distant' at best!
Love, go with what you feel is best. Listen to yourself, and if there is anyone out there, they'll be pleased you're happy.

I would follow your heart dear. Go with what feels right to you! God allows us to make our own choices and if they are the wrong ones well then we learn from them but if they are the right ones then we are even the more blessed! Good luck!

Hate to burst the bubble but God doesn' send you anyone, doesn't really care who you're with. If God really exisited, and you are a true believer, he wouldn't have "sent" another man to tempt you.

Leave everything in Gods hands. If he is not a man of God then let him go unless he is willing to change.

Why don't you stop listening to God and try listening to yourSELF for a change?

I true christian doesn't choose there mates from there relegion, if you love them, that means you love them and as long as they love you who cares if he believes in god with you, just don't force him to do anything he don't want to when it comes to relegion,
Dateing and sex is a sin anyway.
