Hi everyone,
It’s been awhile since I’ve reached out.And I’d like to ask the community for advice.
I’m currently single at 19,but for most of my adolescence I was addicted and enslaved to inappropriate contentography,in which I quit forever a little over a month and a half ago.
However the struggle with sexual desires have been real and to my opinion, a burden.Though I know the answers to other tough biblical questions,one still lingers that I cannot find an answer to.
I can’t rationalize why,I,a single young Christian guy,have sexual urges,and nothing and nowhere to release them except marriage.I understand fully what the strict and forbidden outlets are(inappropriate contentography,masturbation,fornication,etc) and make no intention or plan to indulge in them (again;inappropriate contentography).But the question still lingers “why do I as a single have to wait and wait and have so much desire but nowhere to release it?”
I have always been very polite and very courteous in the presence of a Girl and/or Woman.I have never made any type of worldly “over confident,rebellious,stamina driven” approach towards any girl or woman.I respect women and girls very much and am sure to keep track of my manners when around them.I used to let my eyes wander,but now I have disciplined myself to use the “chin up” exercise,I know whenever I notice an attractive woman to bounce my eyes,and I discipline myself hard everyday.But I also must confess a very bad thought process,I used to,for a short- long time period,used to try to attract the attention of any female of any age and of any status to lust after me.In which I’m ashamed of doing.Though that does happen very rarely anymore,I still discipline myself.
But could someone answer that question for me?
Also I’d like to ask for the advice of fellow Christians on a certain matter.
I have a female friend with whom I’ve been friends with for awhile now.I’m respectful,funny,and attentive to her.I’ve taken her to nice restaurants a handful of times and given her a couple friendship gifts.She,one time,when I was driving her home,passed by a church which she stated she once did VBS in.But I’m not completely certain she’s a Christian,or if she’s a self proclaimed Christian.I really like her,but I’m refusing to date her unless I know for certain she’s a Christian.
could someone help?
