Christian Dating Advice(share!)

One can find Christian dating advice all over the internet. The problem is that the “Christian dating advice” you get on the web may not be from a morally reputable dating site.

Look at the Source of Your Christian Dating Advice

For example, on one particular dating site, you can find Christian relationship dating advice on the sidebar right next to Transexual dating advice. With so much junk out there it’s important to know from where you are getting your Christian dating advice.

One of the reasons we started Christian Dating Service PLUS! was to counteract the crazy Christian dating advice out there by providing Biblical, practical and fun Christian dating advice.

The unique thing about this site is that if you are a Christian single, minister, counselor, etc., you may submit your own Christian dating advice articles and podcasts for publication on our site. Find out the cool benefits about why you would want to submit a Christian dating advice or singles related article.

If you take a look at our sitemap you will see Christian dating advice regarding dating tips, relationship problems, dating site reviews and other issues.

Dating Advice: How to Have Good Communication with Dating Singles(share?)

Dating advice for good communication

Dating advice on learning how to have good initial communication is useful to any single woman or man serious about finding and keeping a date. The vast amount of dating advice found in books and on the web about communicating with the opposite sex can be both confusing and contradictory. If you fail to make a positive emotional connection at the outset with your acquaintance or date, you can be sure that any hopes of a deeper relationship will likely end right there.

However, the following dating advice on communicating with dating prospects is a simple, easy way to ensure exchanges that will make a positive first impression:

Dating Advice: Know Their Name

This dating advice sounds silly, but many people who fail to do this often suffer the consequences. Whether you communicate with someone through one of the top Christian online dating sites, like Christian Mingle, for example, by telephone or in person, be sure to exchange first names.

During your talk with them, be sure to use their first name. In doing so, you will make them feel at ease, while also coming across as the friendly person you really are. Of course, if you’re like me, and forget people’s names immediately after they tell you, this may be a useless piece of dating advice unless you can write the name down somewhere.

Dating Advice: Establish a Point of Contact

The dating advice is that speaking to the other person about a common interest or topic of mutual concern is a great way to build rapport with them. Perhaps you are both single parents, or share a common sporting activity. Whatever it is, use your common bond to your advantage.

Dating Advice: Smile A Little Smile

Smile often if you are are speaking with your friend in person. It will not only help put you at ease, but will allay any apprehension they may have as well. Smiling is also a contagious, feel-good activity.

Dating Advice: Paying Out a Compliment is Free

Paying a compliment, as long as it is sincere, is a great way to build up another person’s confidence and self-esteem.

Dating Advice : Be Enthusiastic

Of course, you don’t want to be fake. What we are saying here is to stay focused on uplifting topics for conversation starters. For example, according to a recent poll the top three topics singles should avoid when meeting other singles are talking about a former relationship, dieting and marriage. Especially for the sensitive types, the dating advice here is that talking about these could cause more harm than good.

Overall, even if you are love shy, following this little bit of dating advice will help you ease into better communication with other singles.

Finding a Date in Your Local Area(what ya think?)

fining a date

Many Christian singles complain how hard it is find a date in their own local area. Oftentimes, the churches they attend either have no Christian singles group, or the available single people in their respective churches are not what we would call “keepers” (I thought I just heard a few amens out there!).

In fact, we recently found out through our own survey that this dearth of good single catches locally is one of the reasons why Christians would consider dating unbelievers. Yes, finding a Christian date in your area is not as easy as it seems. However, there is plenty of hope and opportunity. Our dating advice is to take a three pronged approach toward this goal.

Practical Steps Toward Finding a Date Locally

Pray While Taking Proactive Steps Toward Your Goal

What do we mean by that? Matthew 7:7,8 tells us to ask and we shall receive; seek and we will find; knock and the door will open. Now I know some of you are frustrated with prayer because you haven’t seen God move yet. No one ever promised waiting on God was going to be easy.

Yes, Jesus wants us to pray expectantly, but the above verses suggest He also wants us to take faith filled steps toward the object of our prayers. Often that means stepping out of our comfort zones by trying something new. If asking alone is not working, then you need to seek. If asking and seeking is still not working, then you may need to knock. Pray about what that may mean for you as you think about finding a date in your local area.

Join A Christian Singles Group

Besides fellowshipping with other singles, there are many benefits to joining a local Christian singles group. Don’t sweat it if your church doesn’t have such a group. Simply do a Google search for a Christian singles church group in your immediate area, and chances are you will come up with something nearby.

As a sidebar, one of the main reasons we started Christian Dating Service PLUS! was to fill a need by listing all known single Christian groups worldwide. And we are steadily doing that. We understand single Christians (whether they be college age singles, divorced, single parent moms or dads, or never married single adults) have a yearning not only to develop godly romantic relationships, but also to connect locally with other singles who share their beliefs.

Okay, I’m done plugging our site, so do check out a singles group if you are not already connected to one. You won’t be sorry, and you never know who God is preparing you to meet.

Try Online Christian Dating Services

In a previous dating article, we discussed the benefits of seeking a soulmate online. All of the dating services we review on this site, like Christian Cafe or Christian Mingle
offer free trial memberships with no obligation. They also allow you to search their large databases to find available dates in your local area.

Our suggestion is to read up on what makes a good online Christian dating site, then signup for free at a couple of those to try them out. If you are unsure how to find a date using online personals, our dating tips category offers practical help.

If you are a single Christian with further tips on how to find a date in your local geographical area, please help others by sharing your thoughts.

Online Christian Dating Advice: Diversify(share?)

online christian dating

You’ve decided to give online Christian dating a try. Great! But unless you’re really sold on one particular online Christian dating site, the dating advice here is to diversify by using several dating services. There are several positive reasons why you would benefit by using more than one Christian dating service.

Why Try Several Christian Dating Sites?

Dating advice: You can compare sites for FREE before buying

You have nothing to lose by way of money because most online Christian dating sites offer Free trial memberships that allow you to test out their services without obligation. Taking advantage of free trials alllows you the opportunity to test drive before buying into one Christian dating site. (In fact, all the sites listed on our sidebar offer some form of free membership).

As you compare dating services, take into account such things as the cost, the number and location of Christian singles in the database and how user friendly the service is. For example, unless you’re into long distance relationships, what good is a dating service to you if the nearest potential soulmate is half way around the world?

By checking out each service, you will become educated on what makes a good online Christian dating site, and save yourself heartache and time in the long run. This also makes sense when you think about how expensive full membership costs are on some of these sites.

Dating advice: You will meet more available singles in your area

It’s really simple: The more you expand your base, the greater the chance of meeting that special mate. By putting your “eggs in one online dating service basket”, you limit the number and quality of potential matches. For example, one Christian single friend of mine got completely turned off after using eHarmony because they only matched her with one person, and he lived 3000 miles away! Take advantage of the online Christian dating sites that allow you to search the databases for singles in your area.

Dating advice: You can tweak your profile and picture layout

Two of the most important things to get right is writing your dating profile and submitting a decent picture of yourself. This is really a science and an art. If you fail in any of these areas, you will get few responses and have a poor online dating experience.

Joining up for free trial memberships at various Christian dating services allows you the ability to test out your profile and picture layout in different ways. This will allow you to determine which works best for you.

Are you a single person with online dating advice about Christian dating services? Please help other singles by sharing your online dating experiences.
