ive been friends with her for 2 years, went to prom with her, and I became a Christian because I was at her house and saw one of her dads books (mere christianity) later that day i checked it out at the bookstore, bought it, and halfway through the book decided i was in. I have always liked her but last year she fell away from Christ for almost a year and I was a friend during this time but not as close as before. now she is back on the straight and narrow and i've kinda been there through good and bad for the last two years. So i was going to do the talk "i like you and want to date you blah blah blah" but i decided not to because it would be selfish. just becuase i want a girlfriend doesnt mean she wants a boyfriend. i came to realize that a boyfriend would hinder not progress her growth as a Godly woman. so i decided not to say anything. but should i let her know that i like her and someday in the future i think her and i could be together.Should I let her know?
My boyfirend only strenthens my relationship with God, he helps me, reads the bible with me, and we work though it to see what it means. So relationships are good.
hey man, love comes before god. (He won't mind.)Should I let her know?
if i were you i would tell her how you fell but tell her you dont want to coplicate her life and tell her youll always be there for her
god bless
I say you are a fraud, and it doesn't really matter, just as you are honest. If she isn't all goddy, and doesn't want a commitment, then that is for you to put up with. She has the right to believe in what ever, and it is wrong to put judgement on others. Only god will know, if you are the believer.Should I let her know?
You sound like when you want a woman, you want a future wife. You want a perfect woman that you can be together with for many years in the future. So go look somewhere else. She is not right for you, she is someone who thinks outside of the god-box and you are firmly set inside of it. Find a woman who loves god as much as you do and you will be happy forever.
With telling her, you run the risk of intimdating her if she isn't interested in you as well, BUT, if you don't tell her, you might be missing out on a potentially wonderful relationship.
Having a Christian boyfriend with strong ethics and morals won't hinder her, it could only lift her up. But if SHE isn't strong as a believer (and you surely have some weaknesses, all humans do), then she could potentially bring you down.
Tough situation. I'd say pray about it and continue to be her friend. You never know, she might admit to you that she has romantic feelings toward you...but don't depend on that happening. If you are really her friend, you will be able to accept "mere friendship".
just say to her I hope we can be more than friends. no harm in saying would you date me as a boy friend
just invite her some where different alone and see how she reacts having a good friendship is half way there to having a good marriage. just be yourself and ask casual. or try what sort of guy would you date??
ok, first off, your question has nothig to do with religion. this happens in every day life to everyone. yes you should tell her what you are feeling. Second, you speek of her disbelief like some sort of drug addiction. there is not one thing wrong with someone exploring other options, other ways of life, other ways of thinking.
Kevin haven't you read the Da Vinci Code, Jesus did it with a prostitute.
"The truth will set you free." Tell her what is in your heart. Listen to what is in hers. Respect whatever she decides. Trust her to make the right decision for her. Don't wait for the future. Don't be afraid--well, okay, a bit nervous is okay, but open your heart anyway.
I am a Mature Christian, married to a mature Christian, but I came by way of the world. I don't believe in dating. I don't believe a man should tell a woman he loves her unless he is immediately going to follow it with, "Will you marry me".
Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart.
