Times Square Church is one of the best churches in the world. I would highly recommend it to anyone in New York City.
 
All churches are the same to me. They’re a place to worship God while communing with others. To me, it’s not the church buildings yet the people who fill them that make up the churches.

Regardless of size of church I would not go further than my church to date a girl.

I’ve tried a long distance relationship once and it didn’t work out. He moved to another city. It was hard because things got draining for the both of us. He was the only guy I loved.

I’d rather now be with someone who at least lives in my town. But even finding a match in my town who is a Christ believer and follower is rare.

I know this is an old thread, but I can totally relate. I was married for 20 years, divorced, and then a year and a half later dated someone 6 hours away. We dated for 3 years and it's just not working out for the long haul. As you said, it has been so draining for quite some time. It's like we are trying to make the pieces fit. Very hard to let go though.

I don't really get this; forgive me if I seem like I'm prying, but why wouldn't one of you move to be with the other? If you like each other enough there must be a way... 🤔❤️
 
I dont think moving house is necessarily that easy they say its the hardest and most stressful thing people can do, even in this age of super highways and aeroplanes.

Abraham was told by God to leave Ur but he already had Sarah as his wife. Do you think if he was single he would have gone back and forth between Ur and Canaan just to date someone.

when you are someplace its cos God wants you to be there He has actually appointed the times and places you are born. And He will tell you whether you are to stay or go.

this isnt creation times any longer where God told adam and eve to 'got forth and multiply' cos they were the only two people on earth. People seem to forget that, our human population is far outstripping every other creature, it numbers in the BILLIONS. How long will this go on for?
 
I personally wouldn't mind too much. As long as we get to be closer to one another one day... Thank God for video chatting and online communication! that definitely helps make the experience better.

So long distance dating is nothing new, but now it's way easier to talk to anyone across any barrier in an instant. Many people use online sites and apps now, but often will meet with people local for dates. How far would you say your "perimeter" would be?

I've dated online several times with people across different states, but it's always been really really hard. I kinda wanna date an Arizona guy...but part of me still has that romantic idea of like sending a bottle across the ocean XD

When i was looking i was extremely open minded, and established relationships with women in other cities. Women in Birmingham are not so interested in me and vice versa, i achieved success in london and leeds, etc. Its possible for a person to gel with a lady and then let the woman move in with them. I am in a position where i can do that, if i wanted to.
