Hey Meg,
I'm a little late to the party but one of my favourite quotes is "Criticizing others is a dishonest way of praising yourself." Are there words seasoned with grace? What is their attitude of the heart? Is it loving, wise and kind? What I hear is a bit of jealousy. I've seen your pic and you are beautiful. It is not a healthy heart that insists everyone around them do as they do in order to please God. As for telling you who not to date because they are not strong enough in their faith, how have they measured that? The judgement is getting a little thick. It is also a little insulting to you as if you cannot assess that for yourself. You do not need their questionable help.
As for online dating, of course there are pitfalls. Meeting someone face to face is ideal, especially if you are introduced by someone who has known them and their family for several years. That still doesn't prevent possible issues. It is more challenging to meet online but it is not evil, in and of itself.
Meg it is hurtful to have people come at you with anything but a heart of love. Having a gaggle of women peck at you is lousy. Please realize that their words are not a reflection of you. Having read your posts and responses over time I believe you to be a lovely, warm, kind, bright and worthy daughter of God. Do not be sad. Hugs, laughingheart
