Yay...Im excited

[hasnoname]

So in May I went through a ridiculously hard breakup (for me at least) and didnt see myself dating for quite a while. Somehow I think God had other plans. I got to know this girl from my youth group more over the summer and she turned out to be amazing. Last night we had our first date, but it wasnt meant to be a date...we just wanted to hang out. We both knew that we liked each other but were waiting for God's timing...we had discussed a relationship before. Anyways, we went out for dessert and then couldnt figure out anything else to do so we went to a movie. And afterwards I decided we need to talk...as it was actually just like a date and we were ignoring that fact. Anyways...I am excited because next weekend should be our first real date as a couple and not friends...Im meeting her parents today as it will be an exclusive relationship (not dating) so it is important I know them. But that was planned since last week.

The reason I am so excited is while my last gf was a believer...she wasnt for the first year of our relationship and it felt weird in that aspect. This is the first relationship I have come close to with a believer and I have prayed about it a lot and it just feels good...like God is giving me peace about it. It is so awesome...I have never experienced anything like it before...I am excited.

If anyone has advise please give it (as far as Christian relationships).

Congratulations! As for advice, pray for your relationship and make sure you communicate to your new gf. Make sure ya'll stay on the same page.

Yes! Definately continue praying for your relationship. Make sure you don't focus on her more than you focus on God. Talk to her, communicate. I'm sure you realize that girls love to talk, but if you truely listen she will appreciate that, and will know you care --hint: this is a big thing. make sure you that you aren't always doing something else while talking (eg. video games). Give her you undivided attention-- feel free to PM me. I've been in a christian courting relationship for almost 8 months. I hope it all goes great for you!
