Actually, I agree with Goat on this one. You don't have to be dating anyone to enjoy your singleness. There's NOTHING wrong with partying with members of the opposite sex. There's nothing wrong with partying, period. It's one way of building fellowship, for one, and if he's up front about not wanting a girlfriend, it's not leading them on.Living4Him03 said:Sir, Yes Sir!I made the mission to six flags sucessfully...it was a lot of fun
Goat, I don't know what to tell you. You will eventually lead those girls on and the best thing to do for them is to help them grow in Christ, not party with them! I have just realized the importance of Godly friendships with the opposite sex. You really really should try it.
This is coolLbiagm said:true and I do talk to her and she is cool and sweet because we are in the same lab group.
I agree with this too. If the girls are told (up front,on no uncertain terms) that they're dating a guy who is not going to commit to them, is dating other people now and will date other people in the future, and is pretty much only dating them for recreation, I don't see how that's playing with anyone's heart.goat37 said:While appreciate your concern for doing the right thing... I am not playing with hearts at all...the girls know upfront what they are getting into, and we have a good time.
Jen, my dear, I know I can always count on you to be level headed. Now if only I could rep you...jenptcfan said:I agree with this too.

I think if you come across this kind of guy and it doesn't mesh with what you want, you have the obligation to say "no thanks" and walk away...at the point where he voices his intentions, if you don't walk away, you've played with your own heart and can't pin it on anyone else.
Thank you! that was my thought exactly!jenptcfan said:I agree with this too.

BUZZ! Wrong! But thanks for playing anyway.Living4Him03 said:everyone wants a serious relationship, few truly believe they deserve it or that God loves them enough to give them His best.
I think that most people want to be in a serious relationship at some point in their lives. But I wouldn't say everyone wants a serious relationship at any given point in their lives. Some people just aren't ready for a commitment until they're older and more mature. Some people aren't ever ready for commitment.Living4Him03 said:everyone wants a serious relationship, few truly believe they deserve it or that God loves them enough to give them His best.
