So i am dating another christian (who so happens spends a lot of time on here, but doesnt know that i look on here from time to time). I feel confused because when we are together i see the light in him. I see his drive for God, but when he is around his friends I dont at all. And I feel that the fact I am true to my faith makes him not share everything he is feeling with me. I know he loves God. And now i feel i should stop mentioning God around him to ensure that im not making him do anything he doesnt want to. But how could he love God so much, but still be sooo much with the world. what should i do?

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

As a guy, i can understand him. Some guys dont like to talk a lot about God or religion in Public, But that doesnt mean they dont like God. If you see his Drive for the God you should never stop talking About God with him, I mean dont talk too much. But you I think shouldn't just back off from this topic. May be started liking you for your Godly talks. who knows? So just be yourself and dont expect him to get so religious when he is around his friends, thats never easy. I barely say much about my faith when i am around my friends, unless they start the topic.

You know, I am the way I am when I'm around friends. But about 4 weeks ago, I had a heart to heart talk with a friend on how God plays a big part in my life. I felt as if the Lord sent me to witness to him.
Yes....I can understand why you're alarmed. But I believe that we all have a different calling to God. Not all of us speaks in tongues or prophecy. God works not only with our strengths, but our weaknesses as well. Pray about it.

I agree, Not all of us have a different Calling. I once had a very nice chat about the Lord and our believes when a friend of mine came to me and said i see something odd in you. well, As a Christians we are to be odd. We'll be Odd if we have the Drive for the Lord, your B/f has it, so no worries!

thank you soo much. I do feel a little better. Deep down i know he does, I guess i just wanted to see him not blending in with the crowd. And it makes me feel like im the bad guy because im looking down on his friends, which i guess makes him feel i look down on him. I don't judge it's just i have very strong views about things. I guess i need to just ease up a bit.
