I like the discussion going on here! I am really encouraged! I do feel sad for the hurts caused by guys who do not know what they are looking for. I do have friends that keep 'testing waters' on girls and often get into a relationship and bail out after they find that the girl is not right for them! They are always 'out hunting'! I really despise that!
I read a book 'The Quest For Love' by Elizabeth Elliot and it really change my perspective on how a single person should anticipate for a mate to come along. I highly recommend that book. I now believe that I should not be out there 'hunting' for a mate. The emotions and feelings of a person is precious and delicate and should not be tossed around like in a sald bowl! Where is trust, faith and prayer when I am always 'on the lookout'? I feel that we should be respect and protect the feelings of the opposite sex. There is not trial and error! I am learning how to stay secure and focused on God even when the urge and desire for a relationship seems to overwhelm me at times.
