That's your opinion. Going out with different people to check compatibility is not wrong nor sinful. You just aren't willing to understand what we're talking about. You have your opinion, and don't want to be bothered by the facts that disprove what you believe.

Emily,
LEt me just say i think it is awesome that you only want to date your future husband! I can totally relate to that! That is how i have felt about the whole dating issue and stuff! But i have been praying for when the timing is right that God will bring that guy to me but i know that most of the time God allows people in your life for a certain amount of time short or long and i think that can also go for relationships. You learn how a relationship is suppose to be in Gods eyes by going through one with someone else who is totally in love with God!! So i think waiting for the one that God has for you is something for you to def continue to do because eventually he will bring a guy into your life but it doesnt mean that first guy you date will be the one God truly has for you to marry! Hopefully this little advice makes sense because its what i felt how God wants me to approach this. :)

Ok thanks for the encouragement:) I hope you find the right person that God has for you too. Well, I mean obviously you'll find him but wouldn't it be great if he was the only one you dated your entire life! I know that it might not happen but with God it could:)

Hope is the substance in which faith is made...

Emily, I admire you for wanting to wait for the guy that you feel God has for you. If everyone did so, maybe the church wouldn't look so much like the world. *LOL* Anyways, I know from personal experience that the path in which you are traveling is not an easy one to follow. However, faith is a gift from God and I personally believe that if this is something that lives deep down in your heart, then more than likely God Himself has put it there. That future husband of yours is going to be one very blessed guy!

None of the girls I have dated have affected anything in a negative way. Each one has helped me to develop the traits I need for a good marriage. The reason alot of people fail in marriage is because they are immature and not ready. They don't know what to expect. Nothing is a remedy for experience. But if one has a conviction of dating one guy, that's their conviction. But if the relationship they think will be ''the one'' doesn't work, can't blame God for it.

O I thought of another place where you can find single guys who have never dated: at pro wrestling events!

I think what you are doing is wonderful. Keep having faith because he will never let you down. You dont need to date alot of people to know how to date the person god will send you~ He wants to give you everything that you want

Going to pro-wrestling matches to find a date,, hmm I'd call that a "leap of faith".

*LOL* A "leap of faith"? Sounds a lot more like diving off of the top rope onto a hard concrete floor without a mat under you to break the fall.

Although a wrestling match does seem much more appealing than a motorcycle rally!

Emily, I think the desire of only dating your future husband is a wonderful and beautiful thing. I believe that desire is from the Lord that He puts in your heart. I do believe that God doesn't want us to have to go through heartache and disappointment of broken relationship caused by our impatience. I have experienced many broken relationship and wish that I had waited on the Lord to prepare me for the right person.
Like you said that anything is possible with God, especially you have a Godly desire and to glorify God (by avoiding temptation and keeping yourself pure for the Lord). God bless you!

Many times we place restrictions on God by our own pride and selfish ambitions. If God wanted Christians to only date one person, what happens to those of us who have dated before we found Christ? You make the same childish arguments, jumping to conclusions without actually reading anything we have said. I have never said it is God's will for someone to date ''every guy or girl'' as you have said. But I do not think it is sinful to go out for ice cream or something with different people to see if there is compatibility. I am sure you will have some sort of immature childish response to my post. I think you need to go out into the real world and grow up some before you ever consider getting in a relationship with the opposite gender.
