Exactly. Throughout time, you will find out about each other. Let it progress naturally and let it be led by God.
I feel like it's kind of like a treasure hunt. You have a map, you go find this mystery treasure, regardless of where it takes you. You want that treasure and you'll stop at nothing to get it. Think of the gold rush, people didn't stop until they found the gold. When you want something, you'll seek it out. When you're seeking for treasure, you'll find any way to get it.
Anyone's heart/emotions/feelings....man or woman....is precious and it's a treasure. I'm not talking about the evil-doings of the heart and the wickedness of it, because I know the Scripture talks about that. But I'm talking more along the lines of the emotions and the affections of the heart. It takes time to get to it. The map shows you different routes on how to look for the buried treasure, different paths, and once you get to the location, you still have to dig to get it out. It takes time.
No rush. Once we force something, we can possibly ruin something too soon.

You're right. And the reason is..................
THE FLESH!
Seriously, it doesn't have to be like that. Jesus shows us a simple way of relating to people: Treat them the way you want to be treated. Find someone who agrees with you on that truth and you pretty much nipped the cat-and-mouse game in the bud. Don't ya think so?

Caramba, compadre!
En Venezolano nato, si esa situación es cierta (y la publica en un foro venezolano) los posibles comentarios seráin varios (nada agradables, por ciero)
pero -esta es mi opinión- ¿No se está esperando que DIOS haga el rol de casamentero?
God´s not Abraham servant to go bringing back Rebekka...
Those words ("The issue was...I wasnt waiting God's timing") are the DENIAL of each person has to assume personal responsibility (and a decision) on the mate WE chose as partners.
Conversely, if I said: "God chose wrong" "I married the wrong person"...
Am I trying to endorse MY FAULTS on God´s shoulders?
I haven´t read GOD played the role of a matchmaker, instead, in Genesis, I read a man prayed from his heart, to meet A WIFE to his master´s son.
If I dated the wrong person, it was my fault
If I married the "wrong" person, it was my fault (and my own decision).

it was a lady i met in the library we got talkin days after and i asked to take her out for lunch. she studied law nd i studied fine art. a day to the date i got broke somehow nd since a client promised to pay me money i was owed by him the followin day which was same day of the date i didnt borther to look for money else where. the day came nd i was payed late by the client nd was 30minutes late to our meeting point, the library. i got there, looked every where in nd she was no where to be found. i got outside nd asked the security guys, thank God they know her, but my whole wall crashed when one of the guys replied " Oh The Lawyer? She Left Few Minutes ago, She Looked Gourgeous Today" the guy asked if we had a date and i said yes nd he felt really sorry for me because it was obvious she must av left in annoyance for my lateness. i called her nd she didnt pick the call.we eventually met about 2years after but only said hi, hi nd neva talked about it. that day was a very bad one for me.
Well my worst first date experience has to be this.
About 3 years ago, I had met a girl online and we had chatted for a couple of weeks. She was interesting and I asked her if we could catch up for coffee because she seemed interesting enough to be asked out. She agreed and we met one evening. She had "checked-out" most of my criteria - a believer, career-minded, romantic and a bit nerdy.
We met and there was a pleasant atmosphere. We chatted and joked; the air was filled with laughter and a hint of romance. Then the waiter came to take our order. She ordered a chicken burger with a cup of coffee and I ordered a hamburger. When our food was served, I joked that she was served a hamburger. She flipped, like she was eating something nasty. I then learnt that the only meat she ate was chicken.
That was the only date I had with her. One month later, I told her that I couldn't date her anymore.
