Red face God or luck

So I kind of like 2 guys. I don't know either one very well. But we will call them Guy A and B. A is really nice and a strong Christian. B is super nice as well and we talk more, but he isn't as strong of Christian. The other night I was praying to God and asked if I should date either one to give me a sign. Then I opened up my yearbook and it was the picture of Guy A. I thought that was strange and closed my yearbook when I reopened it was on a different page, but guy A was on that page. The third time I opened it I opened it to the first page I had opened it to. Is this just my imagination/luck or a sign from God?

hmmm if you really want to find out why don't you ask God yourself and ask Him to keep you for the one guy that He has in mind for you? surely He knows best for you.

Hmmmmm...why do we ask God questions and then act surprised when He answers us?

It's awesome that both of them are christians and that you are seeking God's will regarding the matter. So..have either of them asked you out?

Do they "like" you back?

Here is a bit of advice:

If you "love" two people at the same time, choose the second one. Because if you really loved the first one, then you wouldn't have fallen for the second - Johnny Depp.

Or, you could just remain single.

Jullianna, neither one has asked me out, but there could be a possibility if I told either one of how I felt.

lightbliss, I definitely do not love either one. I am way too young.

maybe you shouldn't worry about it yet...... I am a strong disbeliever of teenage dating..... just not worth it. a total waste.... I would recommend reading "I kissed Dating Goodbye". I think it's a good book for us teen folks...:-D

If you feel as though you are way to young for love, why are you concerned with being in a relationship?

I don't particularly like this piece of advice - love in the sense that this sentence is using is fickle, changes and will very often mislead us. To give a practical example the married man who falls in love with another woman... he shouldn't leave the girl he married because he doesn't love her. Clearly our feelings are just misleading us at this point... In the same way I think this could happen before marriage.

What you think?

Exactly, that is the point. I think it means to say that if someone truly loves you, they wouldn't do whatever it is that they are doing. In the original context, the quote deals with someone who is not yet in a relationship and who is in "love" with two people (I use quotation marks around love to amplify the misunderstanding/misuse of it).

In marriage, there shouldn't be room for a spouse to "fall in love" with someone else and if it does happen, they should suck it up.

Lightbliss, I didn't know that you had to be in love to be in a relationship.

That's not what I meant. You stated that you are too young to be in love but you don't you're think too young to be in a relationship? I'm not trying to dictate you on life or anything like that, I just wanted to know your perspective on it. I think that, if you can be in a relationship, then you can be in love as well (not saying that you have to love someone but if you can have one, you can certainly have the other).

As for me, I would have to already be in love with a man before considering a relationship with him, but that's just me.
