Do Christian guys exist?

[lovelife34]

maybe it's possible that some Christians can be MGTOW but they seem to mostly be atheist types that don't like marriage or commitment to a woman.

Oh okay, that makes sense. So they're literally going their own way... They won't make it far without GodxD

You could find a 19 year old ready to get married but question is, are you? I thought I'd get married to my boyfriend after high school when I was 18 but as the story goes he wasn't my intended I'm 25 now and literally got into a relationship two weeks ago and it feels like we've been together forever... It's all about God's timing because only He will know if you're truly ready for a relationship or not. And definitely use those single days being the best woman God intended you to be...
Can I hear an

Amen!!!

Men in general aren't as religiously involved in western countries, by a ratio of about 2:3 or so.

Where did you come up with that?

 

[lovelife34]

I'm 34 and still waiting. My best friend and most of the single guys I know are waiting. There are plenty of us who wait. It's best not to make assumptions. And it's possible to meet a great guy who slipped up in the past. Doesnt mean theyre trash because they arent virgins.

Yep. I'm not making assumptions, I was referring to the way the media paints Christian guys. Yes exactly, I stated that in a post below.

It's well known among people who study religion sociologically.

Actually now that I think about it, I do think that there are guys out there. I personally don’t think that I would find a guy that’s ready to get married at 19 lol. There are millions of guys out there, so I’m sure there’s plenty of them asking the same question.

Haha, 19!!! I plan to get married at 27 or so. I'm in no rush. I want to date someone for 5 years at least before marriage. I hope that's possible. Haha

That will be very tough on you and your spouse, but it's a smart decision in its own way. Can you date someone for 5 years without any kind of sexual frustration brewing and the eventual slip up occuring? The bible says if you can't keep your hands off each other, to get married!

They are out there. I used to be one, but I realized either I don't play well with others or all women are crazy, so I gave up.

Well, the plan is to live in separate buildings, maybe in different towns? I didn't work out the logistics yet. If he's going to med school like me then he'll have no money for a marriage. So hence why I said 27+ who knows? I'll leave the logistics up to God hahaha. Which verse is that? Lol

We'll see, I'm not dead yet, but that old devil keeps on trying.

1st Corinthians 7:8-9, "Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I do. But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion."

However you plan to handle the dating/engagement thing, that's up to you completely! You do you! But as a man, I'd have a difficult time going longer than three years with someone without marriage. 1-2 years is plenty for a relationship, and a year-long engagement. You should know by then if that person is marriage worthy.

Look at it this way, you still have time to become an even better man for your future lady...Isaiah 32:2 you can be all that for her eventually

Oh, okay. I see what you're saying. I'm curious if there's any region of the world that is "the least lukewarm"

Realize it is persons and assemblies, churches or groups or people, who are described as lukewarm in Scripture, or hot, or cold.
Perhaps individual persons is most important,
since a devoted to Yahweh Widow in Scripture who put ALL of her life's savings in the collection box
Had Jesus' Attention and Jesus pointed her out to not just His disciples but also to billions of us since then via His Word.
The Widow was obviously not lukewarm, while those around her, the religious leaders, were (many?) either directly enemies of Yahweh(God), opposed to Him, or uncaring/ indifferent (lukewarm) ....

 

[yeshuaslavejeff]

Basically, there's "levels" I don't want a level 1(guys/girls who will fornicate proudly and even talk about f-boys on social media but say they are Christians- and have decided that they will fornicate til they die) And then there's level 2- they may have done stuff before they were save/met God, but have committed to constantly working to wait til marriage to do more (where I fall) I will be honest, if a guy isn't a virgin but is committed to "living right" now, I don't care. I know some people who won't touch someone who isn't a virgin. I have realized everyone's path to God is different. We don't all grow up in church, etc.

"good", ? Yahweh willing - "committed to 'living right' now"
i.e. faithful and honest and in the Light, yes.

It does sound sort of unrealistic that I could meet someone and get married within a short time frame.. maybe within a year or two.
