Jan8: Don't kiss?!!! Wtf!!! All these rules sef don tire me...There are women and there is a virtuos woman. Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price [is] far above rubies Pro 12:4 A virtuous woman [is] a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed [is] as rottenness in his bones. The difficulty of meeting with such a one: Where can he find her? This implies that good women are very scarce, and many that seem to be so do not prove so. He that thought he had found a virtuous woman was deceived, see, it was Leah, and not the Rachel he expected. He that plans to marry ought to seek diligently for such a one, to have this principally in his eye, in all his enquires, and to take heed that he be not confused by beauty or gaiety or lustful desires, wealth or parentage, dressing well or partying well. For she may very well have all these attractions and yet not be a virtuous woman, at all, as these advantages are no certain recommendation of a good wife. Pro 18:22 [Whoso] findeth a wife findeth a good [thing], and obtaineth favour of the LORD. The essential qualities for a good woman (wife) is that she be a virtuous woman an able woman (the word includes strength), it is the same word that is used in the character of good judges (Exodus 18:21), that they are able men, men qualified for the business to which they are called, men of truth, fearing God. So it follows, a virtuous woman is a woman of spirit, a woman that is able, who has the command of her own spirit, though the weaker vessel, yet she is made strong by wisdom and grace, and the fear of God, one that is pious and industrious and a help meet for a man. In opposition to this strength, we read of the weakness of the heart of an imperious whorish woman, (Ezekiel 16:30). A virtuous woman is a woman of resolution, who, having espoused good principles, is firm and steady to them, and will not be frightened with winds and clouds from any part of her duty, for her security rests in the fear of God and the covering of her husband. Pro 19:14 House and riches [are] the inheritance of fathers: and a prudent wife [is] from the LORD. The unspeakable worth of such a wife, and the value which he that has such a wife ought to put upon her, showing it by his thankfulness to God and his kindness and respect to her, whom he must never think he can do too much for. Her price is far above rubies, and above all the rich ornaments with which vain women adorn themselves. Here she is compared to the worth of wisdom: Pro 3:15 She [is] more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her. The more rare such good wives are the more they are to be valued as shown by the respect given to Ruth: Ruth 3:11 And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou [art] a virtuous woman. 1 Like |

Good one i must say. However, My reservations with No 1, is that I will retreat from any relationship where the lady does not show enthusiasm or look forward to a blissful union with me. maybe in an attempt not to look "EAGER" Relationships these days is just too complex why make it more complex. anything like that may suggest to me that she has some reservations about the relationship or she hasn't made up her mind. Personally, If a lady claims she loves me and will want to go all the way with me, I see no reason for foot dragging. I may try to push her a little and maybe reassure her, but not for long. If i don't see the enthusiasm, I will withdraw. It too risky to be with someone who doesn't really, really, really like you. Finally, Ladies should not forget the they are the ones who really make the men committed to the relationship ordinarily the men will not commit. Gracias.. |

Thank you all for making your opinions clear! This is merely a guide, and they are not RULES, no need to pull hairs out over something that is not lauded over you! Different strokes for different folks, it's not everything that will work for everyone! If you don't agree with a point, then ignore it, maybe you'd agree with the other point. In reference to the the post 'reeking of Christian views', I'm Christian, saved at that, and am saying it how I believe it should be. It is still very possible to be appealing, honest, show personality, and be yourself, whilst being a dating Christian woman. Bottom line, there's something in this for everyone, whether or not you're willing to admit it. :-) 1 Like |

Hey, Duality. There's a difference between being eager and being enthusiastic, the former can come off as irritating. Being eager breeds impatience, and that's not cute. :-) |

The writer forgot the most important part: JUST BE YOURSELF. Nothing like being with someone who accepts you for who you are. If you have to forcefully change to be with someone - 1. you can't pretend for long 2. that behavior if not properly dealt with, will re-surface at another time. Goodluck with pretending though.... |

But I get the angle of being patient and having self control. Gracias.. |

All those who are against #10 are mostly guys.....why? You've got nothing to lose frm it....the consequences are suffered mostly by ladies. As a lady, when u keep ur self pure frm all these, u won't have to worry about buying contraceptives, you won't be panicking when your period is late because u knw u have nt done anytin that would nt make it come, and also u wil have a free conscience when u hear someone preachn against fornication......all these and many more are the benefits of #10 to ladies. 1 Like |

10. GET INTIMATE - this goes without saying within a Christian courtship, but I'm saying it anyway! If you're kissing, sleeping together, or engaging in any intimate activities, then you're committing fornication - there's no two ways about it. If you can't wait, get a marriage blessing! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Do you also agree that there should be no lip exercise between the two courting parties? |

Re: Ladies' Guide On How NOT To Court!! by eldoradoxx: 8:57pm On Mar 31, 2013 |
Dazl: Op...does a court marriage wit jes ur frends as witnesses witout parental knowledge count as marriage blessings??Two matured adults( 18 years and above) do not need any form of parental consent whatsoever to marry. Therefore, parental consent is a matter of African traditional courtesy. When it comes to marriage under the Marriage Act, no consent is required of any person above 18. Church marriage and Court marriage are same under the Marriage Act. What makes it marriage proper is whether the laid down procedure has been followed I.e whether the required license was obtained from the Registrar of Marriage and whether the required notice of intention was actually given and whether the place the marriage was conducted was a licensed place for marriage and the officiating minister was duely licensed to conduct the marrage ceremony. Thus if u comply with the rules laid down by law and wedded in the church, u have conducted exactly the same wedding like a person who did court wedding, the only difference is the church ceremony. |
