Non-Christians or Christians?
Monday, 3rd June 2013
Heya!
This is the first post on the Boy Advice page - and definitely not the last;) I'm going to talk briefly about why dating a Christian guy is so important. So here goes:
Boys come in different types - not that I'm trying to stereotype and label everyone, but for us as Christian girls it's a lot harder to find the right guy. I've dated a few guys and I'm not proud to say that most of them weren't Christians. And honestly, the fact that they weren't Christians was probably the problem in our relationship. I go to youth group and church a lot and most of my close friends go there too - meaning that any time I tried to invite the guy I was dating to youth group to meet my friends (and God, obvi), it usually ended awkwardly.
Basically, dating a Christian is a lot easier. Dating in general is already tough, and if you date someone with different beliefs, it makes it a million times harder. Also, if your parents are Christians, they're more likely to approve of a Christian boyfriend;)
More on guys another time,

Believe it or not, I've been asked that question by quite a few of my younger (and even some older) girl friends. These days, we are pressured by the media, by our friends, sometimes even by our families, to date a guy or to at least have a crush.
But you know what? You don't have to. This might seem stupid to some of you, but there are plenty of girls out there that just haven't found a guy they would actually want to go out with. And that's ok. In fact, it might even be a good thing, cos it gives you time to develop friendships with guys and just hang out with them. You should never feel pressured to like a guy no matter the reason - if you don't want to date someone, it's simple - you don't have to.
Even me, the totally guy obsessed girl, have had situations where it feels like someone is pressuring me to like a certain guy. I shouldn't have to feel that way. I should be able to decide if I like a guy and if I want to act on it, if I do like a guy.
And remember - even if you like a guy, it doesn't mean you have to date him. You might realise that a relationship with him wouldn't be good or maybe you just don't want to be in a deeper relationship with a guy because maybe you're not ready for the commitment or the strain that it can bring to your relationships with other people such as your family. And that's ok.
So to wrap up let me repeat: You don't have to date a guy now. In fact, you don't have to date a guy ever if you don't want to. You should never feel pressured into "liking" a guy or dating him. Because you have rights and because you are special.
I hope it helps,
