I definitely believe different methods can work for different people.
As for me, I definitely wouldn't be cut out for an arranged situation.
Or maybe any at this point, lol.
It's up to God.

What makes you think that only talking about the things you want to talk about, from your own perspective, and only within your own parameters, is somehow unselfish?
The Scripture has repeated warnings on drunkenness, the Lord himself explicitly warned about getting drunk and negligent, are you gonna accuse God of him adding "guardrails"? And for the record, I never said no alhocol at all, just limit it to special occassions. Isn't that just another word for your precious "moderation"?
Go rant about whatever you like, broach whatever subject you prefer, it's your right of speech.
Good for you. None of that is sinful in moderation and you haven't shown otherwise. FYI, I don't gamble or smoke weed (I'm allergic). That doesn't mean I tell others they can't because scripture doesn't say they can't.
I don't know who you're reading about but I don't see @NightTwister defending sin.
You enjoy accusing people of it, but you insist on squeezing everything through your own lens of self-righteousness.
Are you a sinless perfectionist?
For sure.
We might even say that getting to know one another better and more deeply is the whole point of a dating relationship. Wow. Imagine that!
I've often read that Christians marry at a younger age than the national norm. i wonder if this is one of the reasons why.
*Glances at the something like 1,060 threads she's written and laughs.*
Oh believe me, I exercise my right very broadly here.
I have my own stuggles, but I'm not guilty on these specific vices, my conscience is clean.
Their own blood glucose and other vital signs will tell them whether they can or cannot.
Then go to other threads. On this particular thread titled "thoughts of Christian dating", my only thought is to bust the oxymoron "Christian dating". You know, there used to be "Christian soaps" to wash away your sins, that was more "Christian" than dating.*Glances at the something like 1,060 threads she's written and laughs.*

"Sinless perfection" is a deadly heresy. If we're sinless, what is salvation for? It is the sick that seeks physician, not the healthy.Yes, we can tell.
Ok, we can rule out sinless perfectionist then, thank you.
It's nice to be able to see at least one thing I can agree on.
This one's funny. Don't call it a bar and its all good. Don't call it a whore house and you all good. So i guess what you call something is what makes it sinfull now.
A more horrible and enslaving addiction is tiktok shorts, it has ruined a generation, I've seen folks watching these shorts while walking, driving, even cycling. When a group of folks are waiting the elevator, all except a few elders are clicking or swiping on their phones. I admit I use my phone as well, but never a heavy user like them, I only use it to listen to podcasts and read books and other necesary work related communications. I don't feel superior or something, I only feel sad.
There is nothing "Christian" about Christoan soaps. The implication that mere soap could wash away sin is utter heresy and an insult to everything Christ did for us.
I know you apparently don't see any other threads than the dating ones, but yes, I've written plenty of other threads in the time you've been here.
I like stopping back in these threads though because I enjoy reading what many of the members here have to say.
Plus, I need to somehow my lifetime supply of popcorn, even though that legalistic goody two-shoes @RodColeman keeps trying to set up restrictions!!
