Christian Dating Bill of Rights

Leave a Comment  

Every dating relationship, including Christian dating ones, is a give and take proposition. In a way, a Christian dating relationship is sort of like a social contract. Each Christian dating partner has certain inalienable rights, but also an obligation to treat their Christian dating girlfriend or boyfriend the same way they would like to be treated. that is the “Golden Rule” after all, right? Christian dating relationships invariably fail when one person violates the rights of the other.

Understanding what your Christian dating rights are may help you avoid entering or staying in a dating relationship with some jerk, while at the same time helping you enjoy your dating experience to the max.

Christian Dating Rights

Christian Dating Right 1:

You have the right to be told the truth by your Christian dating “soul-mate“. You will find liars online and offline, but you won’t have to put up with this garbage if you know the signs of a liar. See this Christian dating article if you think you may be dating a married person.

Christian Dating Right 2:

You have a right not be abused in any way (physically, emotionally or spiritually) by your girlfriend or boyfriend, but to be treated with the utmost respect. Unfortunately, many Christian daters, especially women, stay in abusive relationships because they don’t know the difference.

Christian Dating Right 3:

You have the right to disagree and have own opinions and beliefs as equal Christian dating single. Some couples fail in this area because they either don’t know how to disagree and argue constructively, or one person tries to “lord it over the other.” In line with this thought, and contrary to some Christian guys’ beliefs, a Christian girlfriend is under no obligation to be submissive to her Christian boyfriend. Learning to be mutually submissive is key to any relationship, including a Christian marriage.

Christian Dating Right 4:

You have the right to break up from your Christian dating relationship.

Christian Dating Right 5:

You have a right to outside of your friend’s sphere of influence. Co-dependency has no place in a healthy Christian dating relationship.

If you are a single Christian with your own thoughts Christian dating, please feel free to share your thoughts in order to help others.

Dating Relationships-Top Reasons to Try Online

1 Comment  

Many Christian singles seeking a dating relationship are questioning whether they should try online Christian dating services. Everyday thousands of Christians are making the choice to seek that dating relationship through the internet. Here are the top reasons they give for doing so:

1. Online Dating Relationships Work

According to the Pew Internet and American Life Project, it is estimated that two million married Internet users met their spouses online. In 2005 alone, eHarmony estimated that 16,500 people got married through using their services

2. Have You Checked Out My Church?

Connecting with other Christian singles in church is not as easy as it seems. Excluding the one or two whackos they seem to attract at church, many Christian singles relay that there are very few available dating relationship prospects among their everyday contacts.
3. Finding a Dating Relationship Via the Web is Less Expensive

There is a cost, on average between 15 and 40 USD per month. However, when you compare this with what one pays for just one night out in hopes of attaining that dating relationship, the costs pale.

4. It’s Easier to Find Someone of the Same Faith and Background

This is one of the most popular reasons Christians give for seeking a dating relationship in this way. Using the large search databases of web based dating sites, a single person can narrow in on their target: Finding a relationship for dating and possible marriage with a true believer in Christ.

5. Single Parents Find it a Convenient Time-Saver

Christian single parents have anything but time on their hands. Sure, single parents with kids in the home are interested in a dating relationship, but much of their time goes toward working and/or worrying how they will survive if their next child support payments don’t come. So, when there is time to breathe, single parents in search of a relationship for dating and romance find single parent dating services a great time saver.

6. You Can Get a Date From Your Local Area

We know some singles are into long distance dating relationships. My one friend has travelled half way around the globe to meet his date. However, other singles are not cool with this type of dating relationship. For them, online matchmaking sites allow them to check off this variable in their search, and find a Christian date locally

7. A Fun Way to Get To Know Someone Before Meeting

Most dating sites have free Christian Chatrooms where you can get to know a dating relationship possibility through online chats, IMs, webcams or email before you actually meet in person. It’s not only fun, but also allows for real emotional sharing, which is the foundation of any serious and good Christian dating relationship. Just be sure you put these practical online safety dating tips into practice.

Well, these are just some of the reasons our readers have given for looking for a dating relationship online. Are you are Christian single who’s found a dating relationship through the web? Feel free to share your relationship experiences.

Match Dating Service for Christian Singles

Leave a Comment  

Well, Match.com has made a huge comeback, not only increasing sales over 25% in 2006 in the UK and US, but also buying up some of the largest dating sites in China and Europe.

Although Match.com advertises to Christian singles in the UK, it is not a Christian dating site, per se. However, we decided to review Match.com on this site simply because there are tens of thousands of beleivers who use this site. Also, it has the largest online international dating database in the world, with numerous search variables. If you don’t believe me, check out the Guiness Book of World Records. Yup, Match.com is right in there!

I know some believers have issues with Match.com because it’s a non-Christian site and has Dr Phil as it’s poster child. But as one Christian single gal put it, “People who judge me for looking for a Christian date on Match.com should also think about their own logic next time they step into a public library, a Walmart or click onto Amazon.com.” Now there’s a woman with some spunk!

Finding Single Christians on Match.com

Right now Match.com has has more than 1.4 million active subscribers and 13.7 million nonpaying members who can search the databases for singles in their own particular area.

What I really like about Match.com search features is that you can search by keywords (Match.com refers to it as “match words”) for your Christian date. In a free membership one can search, create a profile with photo gallery and even send winks” to someone your find appealing. However, in order to receive and send email you need to upgrade to a paid membership.

Match.com Prices

Our advice to any amateur using Match.com is to simply remain as a non paying member or “voyeur” as they call it, until you have made a list of several Christian dating match possibilities. Here are the US Match.com prices. You can check out the UK Match.com prices by simply clicking this Match.com link :

• 6 month plan-$19.99 (per month)
• 3 month plan-$22.99 (per month)
• 1 month plan ($39.99 per month)

If you want to throw in Dr. Phil’s “Mind-Find-Bind” video and audio relationship advice, which I think is a waste, you would have to throw in an extra $9 dollars per month.

Match.com Crowns

• Without a doubt, the huge search engine filled with over 1.4 million members.
• The number of search variables, including keyword search for mutual Christians
• A true international dating service that reaches the USA, Canada, Asia, the UK and all of Europe, South America and Africa.

Match.com Pitchforks

• Not specifically a Christian dating service, although their are tens of thousands of Christian men and women using the site

If you’re a single Christian who has used Match.com, would you consider sharing your experiences with others?
