God Wanted Me Off My Dating Site, I Feel Better Now 😮😌

- I forgot to mention how I went for weeks, and months not even searching for others on my dating site.
And how I saw others had ‘given up’ too, as they hardly if ever went on their profiles.
Most people went on enthusiastically but that waned over time, which is normal I suppose?
Great video about the battle that wages for our minds in this day and age…
• The Battle That Rages ...
I chatted to quite a few different women on there, and learned things, but my main take is that dating sites aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.
They certainly aren’t for everyone, and in my opinion only a minority find anyone on these sites.
Yes, there are success stories but that isn’t most people lol.
Proof Jesus is Lord…

We need trust in God, as too many are lost in an online jungle, it can become a trap, Amen

Finding someone who has all the attributes you're looking for in a wife/husband is extremely difficult. I've actually had people set me up with others a couple times, but they've all been different from what I'm trying to find. When I socialize it's with married people so I have to rely on dating apps. I think you have to find the right balance between enthusiasm with meeting people there and the reality of how difficult it is so your lottery analogy is spot on
Well, to be honest I don’t have a particular type as such, ideally she would be a Christian lady obviously. I am open minded about age up to a point, I am quite broad minded, looks mean little to me too. Yeah, I think most people are in relationships most of the time? Correct me if I am wrong? So by law of averages the people around us will be married or dating etc. Like I said in the video, the world has never been more connected than it is, yet it appears to have increased loneliness. All this however gives us an opportunity to develop our relationships with God, being single I mean.
*My lottery analogy is superb isn’t it…😮….*
What else is tricky is what you mentioned about intentions. Many of the ladies you meet are just looking for validation or a free meal
Being used like that isn’t nice is it, I suppose it’s a part of the dating lifestyle many men and women have adopted. It’s all about intentions, we each have to examine WHY we like someone, or are dating and so on. Sometimes in life we can like someone, even from afar, while really all we want is to help that person, be friends with them. I stated I was open to friendship on my old dating profile, but never got any takers 😮. I had one tell me that she hardly had enough time to see her own friends, let alone befriend me 😮, fair enough 😅…
I would just like to say, this brings to my mind just a bit my late Aunty Tina, she had a few relationships in her life, but she had an independent spirit. She was single from her 50’s onwards and got on with it, made a beautiful home for herself and lived in dignity. She didn’t need a man in her life in her later years, I really admire that, but we’re all different obviously 😮….
Yea i used to do dating sites too but got off few years back. From my experiences with women on these sites , most are just single mothers, and even married women trying to have affairs. You arent missing anything brother!!
This is it, sometimes we just ‘think’ we’re missing out, while in reality that isn’t always the case. We should pray for the single mothers and the morally dubious, we’re all flawed, thanks for your insights.
It very much depends on the type of dating site it is, mine was a ‘Christian’ dating site, but hey, people are people 😮.
🙏🙏
Hey there, how’s things?
@thewaywhatistruth5470 doing well I thank God
You'll find a wife in the Church. Just involve yourself in the various ministries of the Church and you will meet a LOT of people
You know something, I had hoped that would happen for years ever since my early 20’s, I do know that people have met that way. I suppose some churches are better for this than others, thanks for your input.
*In the uk at least, a good chunk of people in the 20’s to 30’s age group are missing, I don’t know about worldwide?*
@thewaywhatistruth5470 Ah I wrote a whole bunch but now I don't see it
@thewaywhatistruth5470 basically I am in the UK too. My wife and I met through the Church and we were both involved in various ministries when we were single. But now since we are married we do a lot less of that.
@thewaywhatistruth5470 I also said that most of our friends also met their spouse the same way. And there is a very rich and diverse culture within the Church even in the UK. So many different things you could be involved with which are not difectly aimed at dating but at doing God's work with someone else (which is also what marriage is!)
@@michaelbrunsdon8938oh, I see it just fine, unless you’re referring to something else you wrote?
Yea, stay off the dating sites, Christian or not! Also stay away from the divorced, or those wanting to get remarried if their first spouse is still alive. They have to be a widow to remarry. God bless you! (Romans 7:2-3, Mark 10:11-12, Luke 16:18, Matthew 5:31-32, 1 Corinthians 6 & 7, etc. ) ✝️
Thank you that’s interesting, everything we do has spiritual consequences. God bless you.
Christian or not, relationships take sacrifice.
Yes, they’re about give and take, a good relationship is worth it but a bad one isn’t. It’s far better to be single than be with someone who isn’t right for you.
@thewaywhatistruth5470 Thanks Peter! Makes sense. That's exactly what I needed to hear. It's funny how GOD works things out. He gives us who we need, not who we want...it seems.
But the devil wanted you on it
No, it’s all on me lol, but over time he could use it to try and get me to get up to no good…. Ultimately, we are all responsible for what we do, no one else.
Why do you think God gave you desire?
It is a attribute that allows us to survive on Earth as human beings.
Don't turn out to be a very sad and bitter old man like someone I know who recently turned 70 and never found love in the church but didn't go elsewhere.
He knows that he will never get a girlfriend and will die a very frustrated and resentful person. But hey,,, being single is supposedly good in the eyes of the church.
They are however quick to criticise if you find a partner outwith their circle.
I'm so glad I got out when I did.
I am well aware of natural human desire, I would rather have someone than not, but it's not easy for everyone to find someone for many reasons.
The church doesn't hold any sway over my life choices, I am speaking from personal
experience here. I was attending a very good salvation army church but haven't been for a few months now. God bless.
*We're all growing older whether we have someone in our lives or not. Facts.*
@thewaywhatistruth5470 I'm saying be happy and find a partner by whatever method. Don't limit your choices. That was all
