So.. here's my dillemma..
I'm single now.. have been for two weeks, not ready for another boyfriend but I'm thinking about the future.. I'm a christian and I'm struggling with the fact christians should date christians.. please don't abuse me for that, just respect that's my belief..
But I don't know what to do, because I'm not like other christians. I don't like preachy christians or controlling goody goody one's.
I'm just normal, but believe in God and do my best to do the right thing.
So I don't think I'll be happy with any of the christian guys I've met because they're.. SUPER christian.
What do I do?
I don't want to be alone.
I'm 18, and I would love to be engaged at 21.. I reckon I'm gonna TRY to take at least a year off to just find myself and enjoy being single. But yeah.. so at 19/20 I'm worried about not finding someone.. I don't live in the city either.. towns population is about 15000.

wow, we are a lot alike. i am also a christian and i believe that dating another christian or fellow believer is a wise thing to do, since we are not supposed to be unequally yoked. but, it is really hard to find someone compatable to you. i completely understand, i am nervous that i won't find someone. i don' t want to sound cheesy or anything, but God will provide, He always has. sometimes, us a girls, try to hard to get a boyfriend and we are looking too hard. maybe we should just sit back a bit and let the guys pursue us. i once heard a phrase or quote that said something about girls being apples and only the really good ones are at the top. only the right guy will actually climb all the way up the tree to pick you. just be patient for now, your time will come. don't get discouraged.

wow, I just want to say I've been there. Just because I guy says he is Christian totally doesn't make him one. Just about a year ago, I was 20 and single.. hoping to one day meet the man of my dreams. I thought I would never get there. Now I am happily engaged to a great Christian guy. Your dreams are not that far off....

hi, yup... i am facing this thing too.. except that i have been single for a very long while. and i do agree very much with you that we Christian girls should date christian guys..and vice versa.. i am 27 now.. was like you hoping to get engaged by 21 and married at least by 24. but now all i can say is to wait and pray for the right guy to come into your life and not be impatient and look for guys that although suit us by nature but belief wise is far too off... when i am writing this to you this verse came and its from jer..(for i know the plans i have for you,.... ) so let us wait for the right guy..

cofused bubble, Sweety relax and your life will work out, but in Gods time not your own ! Here is my dilemma, I am a 47 year old disabled,"motercycle" and divorced christian man. Trust me hon I have been down since 1985 and alone,no money no honey ! Just keep your faith in Jesus and when you pray,tell him your hearts desires and he will come through! But we are being put through the fire for a reason so just keep the faith ! Jesus loves you and so do I !

hey girl mad love for ya. throw up the GOD! ok. alone is hard I understand. and finding a real Christian is hard now days. there are no words that I can say to fill the hole you have in your life right now. I will pray the peace and joy be brought in to your life. the bible says GOD will give us the desirer of our hearts so long as we draw near to him. just remember to hold out for what GOD has for ya. if you need more pray or have questions drop me a email. (there is 15.5 billion people in the world ;) there is someone)

Get an education. Stop worrying about boys.

I'd try not to be so selective about who you date and simply judge them by whether or not you find them to be a good person.
