The following are dating principles that will help keep the heart aches to a minimum and leave you the most to give your husband.
Wait until you are ready to marry to date.
Only date a Christian and be sure to ask how they believe you are saved.
Talk more than you text.
If you are going to hold hands save the rest for after you are engaged and married.
Spend time in real life situations (visiting family and engaging in conversation).
If you wouldn’t marry them then don’t date them.
Let a gentleman be a gentleman – allow him to open doors and do others thing to treat you like a lady. Thank him and be respectful.
Wait for a godly man – he will be more than worth it.
Settling for someone who is rude, pressures you in unbiblical ways and doesn’t treat you well is not a good idea.
Guard against thinking that there is always someone better. Once you are married you will not want thoughts like that in your mind and they start from dating around.
Keep your relationship always before the Lord in prayer.
Should you need to end the relationship refrain from sending a text. Take someone with you or call if that will not work. Even though texting is common it is not a kind way to end a relationship.
Isn't that awesome?! I sure thought it was! It's definitely something that I'll keep going back to. :)
"It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes."
~Psalm 118:9
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will direct your paths."
~Proverbs 3:5-6
