Christian Dating Boundaries
Boundaries in Dating?
I write for a Christian magazine and my next article is on boundaries in dating. Instead of using sole research, I’d like to get input from others on this topic.
Do any of you think that Christian Dating is the same as Secular Dating, or do you believe that there are different boundaries that should be put up?
Why do you feel this way?
Third, are there any links you can point me to for further readings on the topic?
God Bless!!

I’ve heard in some Christian circles that as a guy, I should treat the ladies as though they are my sisters. Now that kinda grosses me out so here’s what I do. Being that my focus should be on God and to honor Him and I should also be respectful with my date, I try not to do anything that will be less than that. That being said, I fail at it quite a bit but I keep on trying. And yes, Christian dating is VERY different from Secular dating. The focus is vastly different. That’s why I’ve started limiting the dates that I have to girls that are Christians.
