How is dating working out for this bowl? Feels like most guys I meet identify as Christian but are not actually followers / actively practicing their faith

The single, Christian men I know (I’m now married) don’t do much to meet other Christian women in a romantic way. The best thing to do is look up larger churches and attend some of their events. Dating sites are fine, but when I was single I didn’t feel the women on there were true Christians.

All this to say, there are some true bonefide Christian men out there looking for the right woman

I am experiencing the exact same thing. I've done online dating cause that seems to be the only way I can meet men, but that still only produces in name only Christian men

I have seen a trend among “Christian women” that they claim that they want kind men who are faithful, compassionate, etc. but turns out they only look for white men 6’4 finance bro with chad energy. Ask yourself if you are truly openminded to options. If you’re only exposing yourself to specific demographics with specific physical looking, there is no surprise that you can’t find one. Also, note that kind men could be introverted which means they are far less aggressive to present themselves to women, lowering the chance for you to meet them.

I hear you but you’re also making too many assumptions.

Both men and women need to understand what their non-negotiables / priorities are in dating and both should look past the superficial

Where all are you meeting people?

I feel the same as a Christian male, 24 yr. I've made church and serving a part of my weekly routine. However, women near my age at my church are either married or too much younger/older than I am.

The apps seem filled with women who are stuck in worldly pursuits. I've adapted the mindset of not actively looking and letting natural interactions bring me to the one.

Follow-up - i reached out to a woman there and went on two dates :)
I don't really think it'll go anywhere bc I don't think she's into me as much I would have hoped but it was a nice change of pace for sure.

How do you feel when your guy repeatedly calls other women hot in front of you and says he’s allowed to appreciate beautiful things? I understand we will never stop finding others attractive but something about this feels disrespectful and I can’t place my finger on what that is.

My husband does not show affection openly and is quite lazy in bed, and I thought I could deal with it because I love him, but it’s really really beginning to annoy me. For example, he refuses to do any foreplay and basically asks that I get on top of him most of the time when we have have sex- if I push him to do anything else he basically just refuses to have sex at all as some sort of ‘protest’. I am finding myself fantasising about an affair more and more

28M (but look maybe 24), PA. Introvert, 5'9, eastern European/dark features. Love to talk philosophy but I can also be silly. Somewhat of a homebody but I do enjoy going out and exploring if I'm in company of friends. If I'm alone I'd rather be home and watch a psychological drama/thriller. LF someone who enjoys a balance of going out and lounging at home.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?
