Is church the way to meeting someone nice?

stop listening your mom too often Just go out there in the world and see with whom u might end up...you never know where you can meet your half...

 

lol....if you ever ask my mom if i listen to her, she will say absolutely not. i tend to listen to nobody but myself, but it's crazy how she has accurately predicted 2 things that have already happened to me, and also predicted a third that has a good chance of happening. she could be wrong of course. i could end up meeting my other half anywhere. but with her accuracy on these predictions, i'm anxious to see the outcome on the third one.

 

Yes, people do flirt at church, I know, I met my guy there, and he flirted a lot, yes, sometimes during service. But then we go to a pretty casual church. He would make eyes at me, give me a very sweet hug during greeting time, (never sexual, just tender) he always had a special smile, and eventually we started taliking during social gatherings and in the parking lot.

He kept on flirting during chuch, catching my eye, smiling, saying something just a bit flirty. Never anything inapropriate for church, always a gentleman.

It was great because we would listen to the same sermon and be able to discuss it afterwards, we knew right off the bat where we both stood on certain issues.

I don't think God frowns on people flirting at church, as long as one of them isn't married.

Keep in mind however that you will might great people there, but there are always a few jerks in every group.

 

Just got back from service today, and it was awesome. The environment, the people, everything felt good. I have to admit that i have not regularly attended church throughout my life for various reasons (not feeling like i fit in among others) but i could see myself joining this one. They not only preach the true word, but they also have basketball hoops outside, and a video game arcade, both of which are right up my alley.

Anyway, i noticed that there were quite a few pretty girls there who are near my age, but i wasn't even focused on that. If i focus on getting myself on track with God, he will bless me with the right woman when i'm ready. I do believe that someone will be in the church though. It's important to have someone whose not only physically compatible, but spiritually compatible as well.

 

Aww you are such a nice guy. Church or not, you will get a good woman, a man like you can't not!

 

Now if your mom can predict stocks...we will need to have a conversation..LOL! Church is a great place to meet people and even if you don't meet "The One" there, it is nice to be able to go to bible study and church with your significant other. I see a lot of my secular friends starting to go down the path of delayed adulthood where they fawn over "hot" girls and have unrealistic expectations of what a woman is and should be while expecting to find someone that accepts them for what they are.

 

Thanks! I really hope so! Maybe i can get lucky and find myself a virgin lol.:mrgreen:

 

She just might be able to predict stocks at her current accuracy of predictions! LOL. I totally agree with you though. The thing that attracts me to church women is the fact that for the most part, they know what they want. Not saying that they all do, because they don't. But usually, when you're talking with a church woman about what kind of guy they're looking for, it very much fits the description of who i am, so i guess the combination only makes sense.

 

Hahaha bryant, you crack me up my friend.

I think things turn out the way they do because they are meant to. Maybe your soul mate is not even a church go-er. Maybe YOU are the person who is supposed to direct her into a christian, buddist, islam lifestyle; meaning church would be the last place to go,,,,,,who knows?

But personally, when im in church, my intention is not to meet the woman of my dreams, but rather, to ask God to assist me in obtaining my dream. So i usually just worship, and set everything aside- like for example....the thoughts of boning the hot chick sitting next to me, I put the thought (and my dick) away in such situations and just worship.

I mean, I do believe that a strong spiritual life between a woman and a man can lead to the creation of many little angels birthed sent down from God. However the thought of finding a woman should not distract you from the reason you are there in the first place. So maybe after the sermon, and when everyone is going home, or when people are drinking cofee and eatin donuts provided by the church, you can walk up to that smoking hot lady and ask her "Do you believe in God?..". Stunned, she will look at you and say "Ofcourse i do".......without missing a beat, you could reply "well shawty, you look like an angel babyl".........haha

 

Haha...man, i just have to say it. You remind me so much of my older brother. Not just with your words, but you guys look alike too lol. I used to think that way. I used to think that i could possibly lead my loved one (or whoever i'm with) into the church to worship with me, but let me say, i've tried that, and it failed miserably lol.

You're absolutely right though. Women should be the last thing on my mind while in service. I'm a man, and it's only natural for me to observe the beautiful women there, but my main focus should be on absorbing the word, as well as praise and worship. I am guilty of doing God a disservice because of the many times when i had this backwards. I would go to church only if i knew some pretty girls were gonna be there. I was WAY wrong for doing that. Of course, i would be lying if i said i didn't care if any pretty girls were there, but now instead of focusing on that so much, i focus my attention on God, and let the chips fall where they may with the females.

 

:smt081I just had to laugh at that one. Funny stuff man.

 

:smt043

You just made my day...lol

 

Are 100% sure it was a church and not a social club.....:smt033

 

Yeah, it was a church. LOL

 

The power of the mind. It's just coincidence. Nobody has the power or knowledge to foretell the future. The thing is your actually now uncontiously looking for the things you mother has predicted thus when it coincidently by human nature not God's nature, you belief that it was because of your mother's predicyions. I say it's all coincidence.Your brainwashed..lol

 

Considering that God WANTS us to be married and "evenly yoked", it makes sense to find someone in church. Now some people get phone numbers during service but when you meet someone in church it is likely not going to be on Sunday but rather at Wednesday night prayer meeting or choir rehearsal or at the annual church picnic.

 

Very true, if you really want to meet someone at church the best time would not be Sunday morning, as that is a formal time, a lot more people go, it's hard to talk and socialize, unless you go early enough to be at Sunday School and socialize during the break between Sunday School and Sunday Morning Service.

Midweek Service, and Singles nights are great, also any kind of Picnic or Holiday Celebration.

 

Actually a person who is in tune with the Holy Spirit may very well tell the future, there are many examples in the New Testament and throughout the Bible, I have seen it work today and I totally believe that as scripture says, "He will lead us into ALL truth" which sometimes comes in the form of knowing the future.

 

Church folks like to thump the morality value of themselves because they go to church. It means nothing and often leads to infamous misinterpretations and unguided/unproven mystical thinking and spiritual deviancies (see above).


If that is your reason to meet someone there then you will surely be deceived. You do not need absolutes and rigid thinking. Common sense and the common law should suffice for the well-doers.

 

I was talking with a woman from work recently about my break-up. She told me that "a bar is no place to meet someone" and I should come to her Catholic church with her on Sunday night. I explained that I was raised Catholic, but am an atheist. She shrugged and said, "Yeah, I went through some bad stuff, too." I told my best friend what this woman suggested and he said I may burst into flames once I've crossed the threshold of the church.
