Make sure he's a Christian too! Is he hungry for God's word and is he seeking after Him? You will regret going out with a guy who doesn't love the Lord like you do.

I totally understand your question. I've asked myself this type of question many times. I've come to the conclusion that you should try to find a guy that is first of all involved in the same religion or church you are. (Baptist,Catholic,Lutheran,etc.) Obviously this will greatly help your relationship. Also look in your life right now. Is there a guy that you consider to be a great friend? Maybe he's a good candidate. (You should probably try to be good friends first anyway.) Studies also suggest dating someone for at least a year so you can see how they act in different seasons. (For some, Christmas can prove to be a difficult time because of family feuds or a loss.) Above all, ask God to guide you. He already knows who is out there waiting just for you.

Look for guys of your own age who have the same or very similar values to yours. When the time is right, God will lead you to the right person. Don't try to force a relationship with any boys rigfht now-finish your education and continue growing in Christ. When the time is right and you are ready for a lifetime commitment, you will meet the person God has created just for you.

If you want to strengthen your relationship with Christ, make Him your priority and don't worry about boys at this young age. You have your entire live ahead of you.
Study God's word daily. Pray to Him daily, He will fill that void you are feeling with his love, comfort and give you wisdom to be able to make all the right choices you need to make in life at such a young age. Don't try to grow up any faster than what God intended you to do.

In a word - don't!
If you are truly trying to 'strengthen your relationship with Christ", then you don't need to be looking for a male!
Be friends with a lot of guys, but don't pursue a relationship with any of them. Guys are a huge distraction, no matter what you do! You've got plenty of time to find 'the one'.
I wish you well!!!

i'm also 15 and currently in a relationship for more than a year now , here's a Verse that may help you. pray for wisdaom to know which person is the one that God wants you to be with.
you should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.
2 Corinthians 6:14
it's so wonderful to know that there are people of my age that are believers, especially in today's society, most of my peers at school are lost and need to be found...
God Bless...

Honour, strength, courage, faithfulness, good morals, and (above all) sanity. ;-)
Mind you- you will never find anyone with all these character traits. Just settle for the best you can get though.
Oh, and one more thing. As you are only fifteen, don't start getting any ideas about a serious relationship- I doubt any boys will share your desire to have a serious at that age.
Good luck.

The fact that you are trying to strengthen your relationship with Christ by looking for sexual liaisons with a boy is PROOF you are on a false path following a false religion.
Keep your hormones in check until you get married. If your faith in God is strong you will be guided to the boy for you and will know it is right when it happens.
In the meantime I suggest you look into God's true religion...Islam.

If you are trying to strengthen your relantionship with Christ then looking for males has nothing to do with it.
Christ came to earth to preach about love, understanding, tolerance, peace.
You looking for boys has nothing to do with it. (unless of course you are looking for people for use and abuse, then thats a sin).
Even though the Virgin Mary was probably married at 16 according to custom, you should not be looking at boys now considering that in our society 16 year olds are still children.
(i guess people used to mature faster back then?)

If you are truly looking to strengthen your relationship with Christ, then don't worry about looking for a male. The right one will find you. Keep your heart pure, free of lust, and you will find someone with whom you can share your spirituality.
