      @@basedbulgarian511we need both. Love and respect and when we get that from our husband truly we give it back. My husbands treatment towards me changed me completely into a kinder and more loving person in general. It took awhile to realize it was his love and respect for me that made me feel invaluable to him and made me want him to feel the same in return. I think people need both. Respect is earned of course but when it is it should be acknowledged regardless.

I have a young teen boy and I wish I could give him what I had as a kid. He wants to have adventure and friends that like to get out and adventure, but it’s so hard for him. He isn’t into social media and all that he wants real life experiences and it’s very hard to find at his age. All his friends want to just be home and online and not enjoying life. I really hope he can find that group for him when he gets out of high school.

      ​@@madgameman1you, and a lot of people on this channel are in a pretty dicey situation, because your hard line non-negotiable is a Christian woman willing to have kids. In my experience, Christian women are the most promiscuous ones out there, because their parents suppressed them to limited activities, they were always monitored and hidden from the world, and once they turned 18 and left the house, they just go buck wild and "discover" themselves. Usually isn't a problem for most, but then the other hard drawn non-negotiable is a low body count. I really don't mean to come off as insulting when I say this, but Chrisrian girls with low body counts straight up don't exist. At least it seems that way. And the ones who do are usually in one of those Southern Baptist denominations where their parents hooked them up with an older gentleman at their church and she just marries him.
      Again, I'm really trying not to be disingenuous or pessimistic. I grew up in Texas, went to college in the Bible belt, used to go to church all the time, but because I've always been a social outcast i just took more notice of the clicks. The single girls just dated "Church Chad."
      Point is, I very much acknowledge your frustrations and want to say your feelings are valid. I won't be foolish and tell you to just settle down on a good, Atheist woman, because that goes against your core beliefs as a Christian.
      And my wife would just recommend going to the Philippines because she's Filipina and she's always plugging her people and advertising them as "the best wives." I typically listen to what the wife says, so if you're up for dating a non-American then you can try that. They're typically Catholic and Catholics still count as Christians last i checked. I'm not sure if you're a denomination snob where you're only looking for one type of denomination, but if you're not, you can always go to other Churches and look around? They still read from the Bible. May be slightly different iterations but they still say Christ is King, and i think that's the bigger picture there?
      Personally for me, i love music and making music so I'd go to music bars or any type of music scenes and share my music with other musicians. That's gotten me a date or two. It sounds like you're active, but surrounded by people not looking or not interested. The obvious answer is look somewhere else, but I'm guessing you're running out of that. And you already said you could barely afford to travel so Philippines is probably off the table.
      I have an idea! Every college has a church scene. There are ministries there because a lot of future pastors study theology and in doing so they get involved with campus churches. There is such a thing as a Christian woman in college, so you'll likely find women at said events. Why not look around local community colleges or different campuses?
      Or since you're so involved, why not try and host an event? Start a singles club? If you can't find your people, then make your people.... In a sense. Just spitballing ideas.
      Again, hope i didn't come off offensive. I hope you find something that works for you!

However, men have lost the ability to get to know women. They can't progress past the second date anymore for whatever reason and this is something women talk to each other about and recognize.

    Ive met about a hundred other local young Christian’s in my area just from one fateful Sunday where I stayed for doughnuts that they were handing out after church and I sat with some girls that looked my age that I’ve never seen before. 5 months later, I would consider them my friends and have made many more Christian friends in my city from all over the states and other countries. I play volleyball with a casual Catholic sports group. I get invited to parties and events that I have to be selective with so I don’t overwhelm myself with events lol. I went to a Catholic speed dating event because some lady handed me a brochure for it after church. I went on two dates after that event and both have asked me for second dates.
    If anyone in Denver wants connections, let me know :)

    The one piece of advice I’ll say is this:
    Focus on the hobby itself first, making friends second, and the relationship part will follow. Joining a new community or finding a hobby for the sake of being in a relationship can be rocky
    If you don’t enjoy the hobby, it can be exhausting as you’re doing something you don’t enjoy. If you don’t enjoy it, but enjoy the people, then you have a good takeaway and walk away with a circle to surround yourself with. And if you do enjoy it, you like the people, and you meet someone naturally romantically and things don’t work out but did the steps prior, then that’s okay! You have a new hobby and friends, which helps contribute to someone feeling less lonely (like many do)
    TLDR; please prioritize the hobby and friends before looking for a romantic relationship. It’s better for you in the long run and you just don’t look and aren’t as desperate

    Men, dont forget to take initiative. It's too easy to sit back in fear and hope everything will work out. Something that women want--especially in the Christian context--is a strong leader. Strong leaders dont let fear run their lives. I learned this the hard way and had a a girl I was pursuing tell me, "I love the qualities you have to offer, but I want a leader, and not the potential of a leader."
    That being said, it hit me like a truck. What was I really doing to exercise my leadership skills. Truth is that I was doing nothing. I was complacent hoping the skills would magically fall upon me. Nope, relationships take time to form, and it takes even more time to foster the skills to make a relationship last a lifetime.
    Dont lose hope. If you have the desire to marry, it will happen. Deeply examine your soul and foster the qualities that make a desirable husband.
    Men... if you want a wife, you better make yourself a husband.

    and sometimes just being in a specific public space often you can develop confidence and feel more at ease in that environment to where you feel more ok with approaching new people who come there.
    the thing that actually sucks is seeing someone you feel attracted to and knowing deep down you will never see them again as you are just two ships passing in the night.

    Boomers learned this in middle school and high school especially if they were in the big cities. Where I grew up (Chicago South side) many high schools would host dances mixers for 8th through 12 Graders on Friday nights from 7 to 11 PM so there was a safe place to meet and talk/dance. We would also meet at the beach or sports courts during the summer. Sometimes even sit around in loose groups on somebodies front porch after school. Mostly always a small group 5-10 kids. For more formal small groups 4 to 6 mixed at ice cream shop or a sunday movie. I believe Millenniums used the Malls for the same purpose if there was one in walking biking range.

    A girl in my grade who i've been aware of for the last few years was suddenly in my math class this semester, and after talking to her and getting to know her after a few weeks, i finally gathered the courage to ask her out, face to face. She formally apologized and said she had a boyfriend, and I was immediately embarassed and apologized. After a few weeks, I started getting more and more friendly with her again. I tried asking out another girl to distract myself, and after that rejection, I realized that I am, for the first time, truly in love.
    While it is a wonderful feeling, it's not like I can do anything about it since as far as I know, she still has that same boyfriend. All i can do is hope they break up and manage to grab her attention. She did tell me I looked good when I wore nice clothes last week... That made my day.
