ON DATING AND INTIMACYHello people, trust you had a good weekend, and i thank God for making you see the last monday in november, honestly this year ran faster than any i've ever seen, and in the twinkle of an eye the year would be over, i'm really thankful i got to see this year and i'm thankful i'm still alive and you my dear readers are alive and able to read, that you're not in some remote jungle unable to have access to technology or blind God is amazing and for these and many more i'm utterly thankful to God. However today i'd like us to muse about two issues that has been of concern to me. 1) Do we date as christians or do we just go into courtship? A lot of times in the church when this issue comes up the only thing i hear is we don't date as christians we only court. However personally i dont see it as that. Whats your take on this. Lets have your opinion. 2) How intimate can i be with a person i'm dating/ courting? A few months ago this guy asked me out and was all mush about the fact that i had cute lips and all, and polietly i smiled as i didn't know what next to do, and then he made to kiss me and i refused and that was it, we didn't date again. A lot of relationships around us today is charactised by the whole kissing and intimacy thing, call me a 1960 chick if you want, but honestly i totally still believe in the virginity thing.The other day we had a convo about this and i said i could hug anybody anywhere, but with my partner i'm more careful, personally i believe that its not just a hug, there are also feelings attached to it and a little this and a little of that leads to the main thing :D and a lot of people gave me the "how-many-centuries-ago-were-you-born?" kind of look. Now thats just my thinking. Whats your take on that? Lets muse people. Just drop your comment and let me know what you think.
