Christian Dating Guide

How to move on at the right pace. Christian relationships still involve human feelings and hearts of flesh!?

So my last relationship was similar to the Challenger explosion. It took off with a flame that lit up the sky and everyone could see and what seemed like only minutes into the flight something went completely wrong and it exploded on take off hurting everyone on board. It was full of hope (my first real love) so all the joy and expectation of waiting patiently for the right one all my life combined with someone who felt exactly the same and I believe to be the best girl in the world. Suddenly crashed. I gave it some time (probably way too long) hoping it would work out again, but it was made pretty clear that there was no future in site for this relationship so I took this as closure. Now the problem I face is what to do. I dont want to run into another relationship still in love with someone else. I dont want the next person to have anything less than 100% of my love. I feel I still have alot to learn about women and how to treat them right but im not ready to date someone.

1. She was your first and will ALWAYS hold that special place! I have been happily married for 11 years and we have three wonderful children with number four on the way. I STILL have a place in my heart for my first and that was over 18 years ago!
2. If you aren't ready to date again, then don't. Find some friends, both guys and gals just to hang out with. In time you will find someone else and she will be so much better than the first one. It may be tough, but be patient, you will love again. Have you ever heard the song "Unanswered Prayer" by Garth Brooks? If not you should listen to it. There is someone special for you, and you'll be glad you waited.
