Christian Dating Question

[Susan]

I restate my place:
NO physical contact at all until you are married
No public displays of sensuality or even affection even if you are married to the person.
I also believe that women should dress as modestly as weather allows and not try to look appealing at all. This means not only modest clothes (everything I personally wear is ankle-length during the winter, spring, and fall-I make one concession and allow myself to wear modest shorts and sleeveless blouses as long as I am not going to be near men for longer than a minute during summer) NO MAKEUP and no jewelry in suggestive places. (I allow myself finger rings, clip earrings, and short nondescript necklaces now, although I own some necklaces that probably did draw attention to somewhere they should not have.)
In other words you have to be really careful especially if you're a woman.
Although sick men still look at me. . .
BTW I do not date at all. Nor am I planning to do so. If God wants me to be married, He will bring to me somehow, in some place where I am doing God's work and will not mine own, the person that He wills for me to have as my husband. I'm praying and I trust that God will answer my prayers someday.

Susan, I applaud you! Seems you are the "godly" woman of Proverbs. I love teh fact that you don't date and have faith that God will bring someone to you if that is His desire. That is the way I feel, and that is the way one of my best friends (a woman) feels.
