Am I Ready To Date? by Nobody: 10:49am On Feb 25, 2011 |
The Urge to be with someone special-and to be with someone who thinks you're special-can be incredibly strong, even at a very young age. ''I started to feel the pressure to date at 11''. ![]() What bout u? Are u ready to date? To answer that, we first need to address a more basic question : What Is ''Dating''? Dating is any social activity in which your romantic interest is focused on one particular person and that person's interest is focused on u. Whether on the phone or face-to-face,in the open or in secret, all are dating. Are u ready to go down that road? A consideration of three question will help u find out. Why Do You Want to Date? In many cultures dating is regarded as a legitimate way for two people to become better acquainted. But dating should have an honorable purpose-to help a young man and woman determine if they want to get married to eachother. Clearly, when u date someone, u're affecting that person's feelings. So be sure ur intentions are honorable. ''If u date with no intention of marriage, u're acting like a child who plays with a new toy and then discards it''- El Guapo. You're How Old ? At what age do u think its appropriate for a youth to start dating?. . . . Now ask one or both of ur parents the same question, and fill in their answer. . . . Chances are, the first number u wrote down is lower than the second. Or maybe not! You might be among the many youths who are wisely putting off dating until they're old enough to know themselves better. There's another reason why waiting is wise. The Bible uses the phrase ''the bloom of youth'' to describe the period of life when sexual feelings and romantic emotions first become strong. [1 Corinthians 7 :36] To maintain close association with one particular member of the opposite sex while u're still in this phase can fan the flames of desire and lead to wrong conduct. By waiting until u're past the bloom of youth, you can ''ward off calamity.'' -Ecclesiastes 11:10. Are You Ready to Get Married? To help u answer the above question, take a good look at Urself. Consider the following: Relationships i.e How u treat ur parents n siblings? Do u often lose ur self-control with them, perhaps using sarcastic language to make a point? How u deal with family members indicates how u will treat a mate. ![]() Demeanor Are u positive Or pessimistic? ![]() Finances. How well do u handle money? Are u often in debt? Can u hold down a job? If not, why not? ![]() Spirituality. What are ur spiritual attributes? ![]() TIP To prepare for dating and marriage, read 2 Peter 1:5-7 and pick one quality u need to work on. In a month's time, see how much u have learned bout-and improved in-that Quality. ![]() |
