for me, my Heavenly Father is my Holy, Spiritual, Betrothed, Spouse -
and He blessed me with my very first earthly Love, my precious husband...
HOS. 2:19.
And I will betroth thee unto Me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto Me in righteousness,
and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.
REV. 21:9.
And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues,
and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.

My daughter and I were talking about dating and she said to me, "the one reason I think dating would be good, would be that it teaches you how to be in a relationship for when you are married". I can only see the bad that comes from dating, so that is why I was wondering if others who fell in love with someone else before their spouse had it affect them negatively in anyway.

I thought I had been in love before my husband.
In reality, I was basically just infatuated with any guy who made conversation with or was remotely nice to me; I was more accustomed to being either ignored or made fun of. Not that I blame them; I was a huge loser back in my school days

I had some mad crushes on more than a few guys before I met my husband. I was very shy & flirting wasn't in my repertoire, so I just blushed & giggled a lot when guys would flirt with me. I wouldn't call it falling in love, though. In fact, I really didn't learn to love my husband in a real way till after we married. I don't think you can genuinely "fall in love" with your whole heart until you are intimate with your spouse and become truly familiar with each other. IMO.

I agree that some bad things can come from dating. But kids also do learn from it. My husband was not my first love, but he is my last. I think I had some issues from it and so did he. The bottom line is your daughter is still going to grow up and make those decisions for herself eventually. My children are all out of high school and do I think they make the best choices. No. But neither did I. Just try to raise her with good Christian values and she will know to look for a man in love with Jesus.

Alrighty then.

And I was going to say "Don't sell yourself short gal. Some of us still think you're a huge loser."
