    Where do you meet Christian girls?

    I hear a lot of christian women say they would like their romantic relationships to start off as platonic friendships. In the secular world becoming a woman's friend is a sign one of the parties interested. How exactly does this friendship work?

    no chemistry, no visible attraction, is it a showstopper?

    The question of why do you like her has already been asked so I will go another route. Are you sure you are not confusing you liking her with you just being interested in her as a person on a platonic level? Sometimes it can be very hard to distinguish between the two when the opposite sex is...

An example is an attractive man/woman is dropping you hints and you know that it will never work out, but you find yourself secretly liking the attention you are receiving from them, so you...

    Waiting For Kissing

    I've always wondered about the significance and the history behind the phrase "you may now kiss the bride" at the wedding. Can we imply from the phrase that kissing before the wedding was not considered acceptable many years ago? I'm a male but I believe that kissing is a very intimate action...

    How to get over these feelings?

    Maybe by just simply letting it be and not worry it will just go away. The more you think about it, the more you won't get over it because you'll be thinking about her. There is no rational, fundamental way with getting over emotions and desires more times than not. At least for me, I...

    How to get over these feelings?

    I'm fully capable of seeing the beauty in a Godly woman. The science of attraction can be quite complex and beyond me sometimes.

    No, I'm not using it as an excuse. We both mutually value our friendship and enjoy the time we spend together. As a friend, I am aware of how it will affect her from past conversations and experiences.

    How to get over these feelings?

    I feel like I should be strong in this situation, but I cant draw the necessary strength to do so. My reason/excuses are we've known each other since middle school and I come to value our friendship, feelings aside. I know for certain walking away from our friendship would hurt her as well too.
