Churches are great at promoting marriage but less helpful is leading single people to find their spouse. You\u2019d also be hard pressed to find specific and clear cut Christian dating advice in the Bible\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has led Christian singles down the dating path to make many a mistake along the way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We get awkward, split hairs, keep secrets and can sometimes make a right old mess on things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surely by now, there\u2019s got to be some good advice to dodge some of these pitfalls?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tl-dr-the-summary\">TL;DR: The Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In all our good intentions to find a life partner, as Christian singles who are looking to date, sometimes it is just as helpful to know what not to do as it is to know what to do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, we\u2019re going to face dating mistakes head on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This can be painful to consider at times.

This will lead to more dating mistakes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>It\u2019s important to believe that you are worthy of happiness, love and respect. If you don\u2019t believe you are worth being in a good relationship, then the chances are you will not find a happy relationship. Instead, take time to consider what you\u2019re worth and make sure that you seek a mate and relationship which value you.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.christiancafe.com\/blog\/7714\/dating-mistakes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Polly, Christian Cafe&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instead of waiting for someone to fulfil us and the \u2018void\u2019 that may be in our hearts, we need to work on our self esteem so that we bring our best self to dating. This in turn helps us to not be defined by our singleness and let our feelings rule our decision making. Plus we\u2019ll be less likely to let someone who isn\u2019t going to give their best to us into our hearts either.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So be quick to hold onto the love and worth God places on you and avoid being defined by your single status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-not-knowing-what-you-re-looking-for\">Not Knowing What You&#8217;re Looking For<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lots of us know that we don\u2019t want to be single. But we have <a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/spouse-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">no specifics on what we\u2019re actually looking for in a partner<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-your-research\">Do your research<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Christian men and women who are single, before we begin to actively date it makes sense to avoid this mistake and instead prepare well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Think about it: you wouldn\u2019t start shopping for a house or a car before you first sat down and thought about what you were looking for. In the same way, you shouldn\u2019t start dating until you know what you are looking for in a spouse.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.growingfathers.com\/9-common-pitfalls-in-christian-dating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Kristopher Schaal, Growing Fathers<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After all, looking for a life partner is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, decisions you will make. What we need to know for ourselves is how to look for the person <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@profgalloway\/video\/7398922343369805086\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">who will be a real partner to us<\/a>, says Professor Scott Galloway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-give-yourself-a-guide\">Give Yourself a Guide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we know, Christian dating isn\u2019t always easy and going in blind is not a wise move. We need to equip ourselves to date with intention and clarity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can consider what to look for in a potential partner through many perspectives; character qualities, commitment to faith, lifestyle, future goals. We can collate these thoughts with help too, discerning what might be best for us through prayer and conversations with those who know us well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t a list to limit us but to steer us towards successful dating so we don\u2019t get caught up in the wrong kind of relationship or easily led astray by our emotions. Know your non-negotiables!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diving-in-too-deep\">Diving In Too Deep!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we do find ourselves talking to someone new, or a few dates in, as Christians we can have a tendency to give away too much about ourselves too soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-feeling-familiar\">Feeling familiar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our hopes, and sometimes desperation, to find \u2018the one\u2019 we can get carried away by the excitement and intensity of something new and feel too familiar with someone we, in reality, barely know.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s understandable. For many of us, finding that person who we connect with has been long hoped for. Getting a glimpse that this may be actually happening can be a gateway to opening the steely gates around our hearts and letting it all pour out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-too-much-too-soon\">Too much too soon<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But diving deep and exposing the very vulnerable parts of our past and present to our date is usually a mistake.&nbsp;Dumping our baggage early on isn\u2019t the way to go\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The chances are you\u2019re going to end up overwhelming them because they don\u2019t know you well enough yet. They don\u2019t know who you are outside of those struggles.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Equally for you, you might find yourself overly attached to someone too soon because you\u2019ve given away so much of your inner self before building a foundation of friendship and trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How To Guard Your Heart in Dating\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8H-NYeXDyHI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-pressing-fast-forward-on-a-relationship\">Pressing Fast Forward on a Relationship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the mistake that most of us are already aware of and think \u2018oh no, that won\u2019t be me\u2019. You\u2019d be surprised how easy it is to rush things.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-proceed-with-caution\">Proceed with caution<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Christians dating of course we\u2019re going to be thinking about the big things a lot earlier than many of our non-Christian peers. Our ultimate goal is marriage and not just having a bit of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But often this has turned into pressing the \u2018fast forward\u2019 button on a relationship resulting in some people almost acting like they are married before they really are.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We need to proceed with caution, especially in the early stages and place our focus on a) enjoying dating this person and b) making effort to really get to know them before involving others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-global-news\">Global news<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the tell tale signs that things are moving fast is going public on a relationship that is still in its infancy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I remember a friend gushing about a guy, you could tell they were just in the \u2018head over heels\u2019, \u2018can\u2019t see the wood from trees\u2019 phase which was lovely to see them experience and be so happy. But knowing so much about it from such an early point sent my warning radar off. Unfortunately, and expectedly, it didn\u2019t last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be careful in involving friends early on, and even more wary of introducing your date to your family when things are fresh.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course some of these things are impacted by circumstances, but asking them to join the family group chat or holiday booking is best saved for later down the line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same can be said for \u2018announcing\u2019 your relationship online. Though your heart might want the world to know, remember that your private life can be just that as you date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though it seems like it won\u2019t affect you, what we put on social media can have an impact on us for better or worse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Go slow and keep updates to your inner circle until things feel more settled.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The plans of the diligent lead to profit<\/em> <em>as surely as haste leads to poverty.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Proverbs 21:5 (NIV)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"two sandwiches\" class=\"wp-image-2474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-9x12.jpg 9w, https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/amanda-marcolini-dupe-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tempting-yourself-with-the-line\">Tempting Yourself With &#8216;The Line&#8217;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dating and relationships for Christians can contain a lot of physical temptations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We might like to think that knowing our boundaries is enough but we are not always as strong at sticking to them as we first think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-where-is-the-line\">Where is the line?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An important step as godly Christian men and women is to not be sucked in by playing around with \u2018crossing the line.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If our thoughts are about how far we can actually go then you\u2019re likely not ready to be dating another person yet. These thoughts are about pursuing our own pleasure over the purity God calls us to.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We will all find temptations hard to avoid, especially as our feelings develop for the person we are dating. Know you aren\u2019t alone and there are lots of ways to reinforce your choice to honour your body, the person you&#8217;re dating and your decision to save sex for marriage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why not check out our blog \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/christian-dating-boundaries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How far is too far? Christian dating boundaries<\/a>\u2019 for more advice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-why\">The why<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When faced with temptations in dating, or even as we prepare to date, it\u2019s always good to know they \u2018why\u2019 for the choices we make for our faith. As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wayfm.org.au\/10-donts-of-christian-dating\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Sabrina Peters for Way FM<\/a> writes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The point is not avoiding intercourse, the point is not bonding emotionally, physically, psychologically and sexually with someone that you\u2019re not married to!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bonds that we can make with people who we may then break up with or not continue dating are hard to let go of even after time has gone on. Protect yourself from unnecessary hurt by choosing to be physically cautious now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-waiting-on-god-to-do-the-work\">Waiting on God to Do The Work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ll just wait for God to bring my person to me\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI prayed and said to God that the next brunette man I see walk into church is who I\u2019m going to marry\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m over trying, God can tell me who to date next\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are a small selection on the many ways we can make mistakes in Christian dating by demanding God\u2019s intervention or choosing to be passive so that God does something for us. Resting on our laurels and waiting for God to do the work for us is not a good tactic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-over-spiritualising\">Over-spiritualising<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Christian singles it\u2019s easy to over-spiritualise dating. We often forget how much our freewill and the freewill of others plays into things.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, relationships are good. Yes, God wants people to marry and have committed foundations for creating families. But no, He\u2019s not forced us all into marriage, it\u2019s a choice we make. He doesn\u2019t owe us a partner, it\u2019s a gift we might receive but many don\u2019t or choose not to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course we want to seek God as we date and prioritise our relationship with Him regardless of our relationship status. But we need to have more of an open heart as we date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you aren\u2019t getting too much of a sense from God about who you are dating, that\u2019s okay. You don\u2019t need to wait on a big flashing sign in the sky from the Lord to tell you if someone is the one or not. Trust the qualities God has given you and your mind of reason to help you date well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-giving-it-a-go\">Giving it a go<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Often in \u2018giving it to God\u2019 we take this as singles as a reason to sit back and wait in Christian dating. Then we get upset when nothing happens.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If this feels familiar, I think God is telling you to just give it a go. Get out there. Make a start. <a href=\"https:\/\/nrb.ttm.mybluehost.me\/ways-to-flirt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Flirt with someone you like<\/a>. Offer God something to partner with you in, instead of holding off for some perfect person to catch your eye across the street.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many of us this means getting comfortable with dating online. We really can\u2019t make the excuse that there is no place to find single Christian men and women to date anymore, thanks to the online dating world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u2026 technology has made it easier than ever to connect with people who share your faith. There are now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.be-salt.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Christian dating apps<\/a> and websites that allow you to easily find other Christian singles who are looking for a relationship.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goodvibesfaith.com\/biggest-dating-mistakes-christians-make\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Niall, Good Vibes Faith<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It might feel cringe at first but apps, like SALT, are made by people like you who are wanting to create an encouraging and safe space for <a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/websiteurl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Christian singles to meet and date<\/a>.

Sometimes through our mistakes, God can guide us to the best things in life.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u2026 God\u2019s Spirit is right alongside helping us along.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>That\u2019s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Romans 8:26-28 (The Message) abbreviated<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christians are not good at dating &#8211;
