Dating

Dating is very different in this present age of online dating sites and social media to meet new people.

I think that it is great for people to meet this way.

Online dating just isn't for me.

I like meeting people by coincidence.

I was sharing with my dad about a date I went on this summer.

He laughed so hard when I was telling the story.

He suggested that I write about it.

Since my break up I haven't been on a lot of dates.

But I thought that I would start going on dates again to have practice.

You never know who you might meet.

Getting back out in the dating market is hard.

Dating doesn't mean that you are having sex.

Dating is away to get to know someone.

Dating to me means going to the movies, dinner, drinks, jazz, or coffee.

I think that you should go on dates with different people.

It's good to keep your options open in the beginning.

Many women look down the road to marriage and by pass the dating and getting to know someone process.

They just want to get married for the sake of being married.

Until you decide that there is one person you are interested in developing a relationship go on dates with other people.

You can start dating exclusively when you come to a mutual understanding.

Don't assume that because you don't want to date other people that the other person feels the same way.

You must have communication when it comes to dating and relationships.

Well let me get to my story.

So on this Sunday afternoon I thought going on a date with this minister let's call him Jeff would be harmless.

I tell myself that I can practice going on a date.

I wasn't interested in Jeff.

He wasn't my type of guy.

Keeping in mind somethings that I wanted to work on when it comes to dating.

I meet him at a restaurant.

We go inside for lunch.

The conversation was casual in the beginning.

I thought to myself that this dating thing isn't so bad.

I can get out and meet new people.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

Keep my options open.

Boy was I wrong about this date.

Jeff starts talking about getting married right now.

Wanting me to bless him with a baby.

He would be so honored if I would have his baby.

He told me he would buy me a new car a Cadillac CTS.

I would look nice being his wife driving this car.

I could live in any of the houses that he owned that I chose.

He had 8.

Wow.  He was pouring it on.

Oh I almost forgot, would it be a problem if he had been to jail.

In between all these statement his phone rings.

He doesn't excuse himself.

The conversation is very rude on his behalf with one of the members of his church.

He curses the person on the other end.

I drank down my glass of water to keep my food down.

I asked him how many women had he been able to sleep with off of these lies???

He went on to tell me that he was serious.

After we got married we could get to know each other.

I told him that I wouldn't be able to help him out and that he was jerk.

When the check comes he tells the waiter he doesn't know if his credit card would go through.

I thought I was on a date from hell.

I thinking if this waiter comes back and says declined I'm going to excuse myself to the bathroom.

There was no way I was going to pay for dinner after enduring this conversation.

I finally told him that I needed to take a nap and that I had to go.

He asked could he watch me sleep.

I thought that I was going to throw up my lunch.

I ran to my car.

I was driving so fast that I got pulled over on my way home.

I was going 60 in a 35.

I explained to the officer what happened.

He gave me a warning and said that he hoped that I had a better experience next time I go on a date.

I realized that when it comes to a date only go out with people that you may be interested in.

My number one rule with dating is to drive your own car.

In case you meet someone like Jeff.

When your out on a date and find that you're not interested in someone just enjoy the moment.

To many times we throw people away because we are not interested in them.

This person could be a really good friend.

They also may know someone that you would be better suited to meet.

Dating should be fun.

Dating shouldn't be filled with pressure.

Take it one day at a time it's just a date.

One date can lead to a second.

It could also mean that you need to move on and gain a friend.

That second date can lead to exclusive dating.

Take your time in getting to know someone.

Don't let age or race influence your decision to go on a date.

Be prayerful about the people that you meet.

You never know who God has for you.

Are you enjoying being single and dating???
