Are Christian guys shy about dating Christian women?

Seems like Christian guys are a little hesitant when it comes to asking a Christian woman out on a date. Why is it such a big deal?

Hmmm, "Professor" Braveheart, wonder where you got that idea of playing scrabble by yourself??? lol.

Seriously, I agree with you about lettng a guy know he is appreciated. I think it goes both ways, too... even though we are Christian women who try to be chaste and keep our hearts pure, we still want to feel beautiful and appreciated. Seems as if alot of guys who know we are "good girls" act so uptight around us that we almost have to ask to even have our hands held!! But i do appreciate the respect and would rather have an uptight guy than a loosey-goosey who forgot his manners.

i dont know if most guys are shy about it. me, i am not shy about dating girls i am more cautious. i dont want to find a girl who will mistreat me physically or emotionally. But also it is REALLY hard to find a "good girl" i think. i know you ladys are out there i just cant find any ha ha. so when it comes to me. I am not shy just very cautious on who i let get close to me because even the Bible warns about the temptress. If a man is loving his woman the way she is supposed to be. That woman has alot of "power or control" over him because he is deeply in love with her. and if she turns out to not be a good woman. its all down hill from there lol..

I agree with the statement about Christian guys. Actually, I would take this statement one step further. I go to church daily and notice that A) I am the youngest person there, and B) there are very few men. Again, I must state the question in a different way: Where are all the young, single Christian guys to begin with....are they a dying breed? First, we must find them before we can determine why they won't date Christian women.

unfortunately we are a dying breed.. as ar ethe good christian women.. we cannot be found only stumbled across or lead to by God. there is no "watering whole".. we are around. just seems like girls dont notice us right away. alot of times they think we are just kinda goofy because we are not what they think "guys should be"

I think Cory is very wise for a young christian man...I have found one knows what's really in a man's heart by their actions....and if they are truly christian...you will focus on fun times together and not focus on matters of sex, be encouraging for each other, however....there are lots of ways, if your friendship develops more into a lasting relationship, to show affection and appreciation to each other without crossing the line. Keep in mind, God wants to protect us...from hurt, if you don't take your time to get to know each others true character, know them as a person and keep focused on what God wants, you pay the consequence...once you choose to bond, before marriage and things don't work out, then it's a tearing of the soul and it will take more healing...I pray that God gave me the right words to express/share this

In christian love, Barb

I cannot speak universally, nor would I want to, for the Believing males as a whole. I am finding that my problem is similiar to Lohung I am finding that their are very few "Christian" women out their. This is fustrating to me and it makes me wonder if my standards are to high and maybe I am being unrealistic. I have wondered if the days of a woman with morals is a rare bird now...as I have been propositioned several times by women that were "Christians"...so for me at least....I have become gun shy about asking a woman out for fear of getting into a compromising situation.

I'm shy about it. It's hard to show any interest in a woman in church today without people thinking you're some kind of sin-head. And I think women feel the same way, since they don't seem to show any interest in men either. Does anyone feel that way about church too? I do, that's why I joined a Christian dating site. :goofball:

So are you saying that in Christian man Lust and Ego are top priorities ? The Bible teaches us to control, and not to be arrogant and "puffed up".



I've seen Christian men shy away from affection, even from some very attractive Christian women. Attractive, average etc, I don't think a lot of guys know how to select a woman and don't even know what they want in a woman.



I think some men never grown out of the little boy stage very well.

I think it is a "self-esteem" issue in one respect. At the same time they may not feel they "measure up" as they may see you as more capable, confident or successful then they are.

They may not feel they meet a high enough Christian standard as perhaps they still have not learned to control their thoughts and fall victim to lust and do not know how to conceal that weakness, or fear that it will cost them a relationship with a Christian woman.



I was in a Sunday School class for 4 years that was a good size class. We had a good variety of women. Some would try to smile and get the men to be interested to no avail. I couldn't understand why there wasn't more Christian dating going on between the singles. Most of the women were anywhere from average to attrative. The guys..well not so much, but women are usually looking more at the Christian aspect, not whether the guy is a "Perfect 10".



One Sunday, the class leaders decided to place the woman on one side of the room, the men on the other. Then they had to express their opinions and questions about the opposite sex. A very disturbing event occured that was very non-Christian. A number of the guys started "attacking" one woman in there without actually stating her name, but it was so obvious. They thought she was arrogant, overly proud etc etc. It wasn't the case at all. She was very attractive, dressed well, and took good care of her self. She was very confident, but shyly winced a smile to the guys in the morning trying to drum up some interest. They guys obviously felt intimidated by her good looks, professional dress, good posture and confident attitude. Those guys were so wrong about her. She was the sweetest lady and so humble and real. They hurt her feelings really bad. She eventually dropped out of the class, and found a boyfriend who she was bring to church. She was a really nice lady, so warm and caring. Those ignorant guys had a self esteem problem, and they really missed out on dating a special lady.
