Hi All, Just joined site and wondering what is the best way to search for matches that are Christians? Thanks for your help? Honestly, I wish I had a simple straightforward answer to that. I'll do my best to speak from not only mine, but the combined experiences from those I've known who are looking for the same. First off, "Christian" is a label, IE something people say about themselves in order to fit into or appear to belong to a group. They do so for any variety of reasons, and, in the name of trying to be positive yet realistic, my personal experience is that many who do are not for the best of reasons. Most of us were raised and taught to take people at the word and "give them the benefit of the doubt". I was, and through experience learned while that sounds good, perhaps, it is not wise IMO. One of the pitfalls of dating, online or not, is that to truly get to KNOW someone involves an investment of time and other resources, seeing someone in all types of different situations, how they react and how they interact and treat other people. The biggest pitfall of online, is that many depend on getting to know someone is relying on what they say about themselves, through text, email, phone, IE. So those who are adept at "hooking" someone through slick talk, the ability to focus on what someone wants to hear, etc. One of the biggest mistakes is ignoring gut feelings and red flags or even worse, not knowing what red flags are. All that said, one of the repeated advice I often give (and is the most ignored) is to give time and be aware to match up with what someone says and what they do/how they act. The objections to that is it is great to hear those sweet words, compliments and be "swept off your feet", but sadly those stories don't often end well. So be alert, don't ignore any gut feelings, and pay attention to your comfort level and have a very clear, defined vision of who you want and how that person should behave and treat you. NO EXCEPTIONS!! I hope this has helped. |

The people running this site (Mingle2) also run a Christian dating site, might be worth for you to sign up and look around?
And there is, of course, Google to look up some other sites just for your tastes... |
