Okay, so you like this guy, you've been checking him out at church and it seems like he's checking you out as well, you want to get closer to him to get to know him a bit better and maybe start building a friendship that could possibly lead to more, but where do you start and how do you do it without making it obvious that you like him especially if you are really nervous? these dating tips for Christian women will really help you with some of your questions.
These tips came about as a result of some questions I got from a lady who emailed me recently asking for advice along these lines and I thought to share it with others ladies who find themselves in the same boat.
1. How can I know if this is the guy to date, when I don't know where he is in his walk with the Lord? He doesn't talk about it often, and I sometimes wonder where his heart is.
The answer to that is to pray and let the holy spirit lead you, if you feel uncomfortable about dating him then maybe thats a sign not to date him. Also remember that the purpose of dating is to see if this person is right for you, its difficult to tell if someone is right or wrong for you until you've gotten to know them so maybe getting to know him will help you make an informed decision about dating him. Try building a friendship with him before deciding about dating him, thats always a good and safe route to take.
2. I like him, but how do I spark up a conversation without him knowing that I like him? Or without getting tonuge tied or nervous?
Just be yourself, if you like him, you like him, why do you want to hide the fact that you like him, for all you know he might like you as well, you dont have to outright say that you like him but in the process of trying to spark a conversation and get to know him, it might come through that you like him because of your body language, and the fact that you are making an effort to try and get to know him will already make him start to make him get suspicious.
I guess your fear is that what will happen if he knows you like him but he doesn't feel the same way, but that isn't the end of the world and it isn't a crime to like someone, even if he doesn't like you back there is nothing to be ashamed of, it might just mean that he isn't the right person for you.
With regards to sparking a conversation with him, try and start a conversation about something you know he is into like music, maybe compliment the way he plays the guitar or something and ask him if he could teach you how to play! - just keep in mind that if he agrees to teach you how to play it will mean cutting your nails!!!! and I dont know how you will feel about that as a lady but the pay off is that you get to start talking with him regularly and it could be the start of something special.
3. Sometimes I see him looking at me, does this mean he could find interest in me too? Plus he always makes me laugh, asks me about school; on the missions trip he asked me about the music I like and my music ability, could this mean something?
It could mean something, but he might just be a friendly guy, however, if he is always looking at you then there is a possibility that he might like you. It makes me remember when my wife and I met, it all started with me always looking at her during the service, I play the drums and I would always be looking at her while playing and when she notices me looking I quickly look away and then she started doing the same - we played the looking game for a while until I summoned the courage to go and talk to her and the rest is history. If you guys have been playing the looking game as well then there is a chance that he might like you as well.
4. I'm scared of what some of the people at church might say if they find out that I do like him, or if we ever started a relantionship how can I get over that? And the fact that we are both of a different ethnicities?
People will always have something to say, never let what people will say stop you from getting the things you want in life, you are not free until you are free from the opinions of people. Also the last time I read my bible I dont think God has a problem with people from different ethnicities hooking up, in Christ there is no Jew or Gentile meaning we are all the same in Gods eyes regardless of our background. If God has his stamp on the relationship then what others think shouldn't bother you - thats their problem let them say what they want.
5. Are there signs to look for in knowing whether or not he likes me?
Like I said earlier, the most obvious one is if he is always looking at you and looking away when you catch him looking - thats a dead give away.
6. I really want to get to know him better, but I always fear that if I try then he will back away and me left feeling rejected. What should I do?
Here is a success principle I learnt a few years ago that has really helped me in life "feel the fear and do it anyway" dont let your fear keep you from what could be, yes there is the possibility of rejection but there is also the possibility that he doesn't reject you but you never know till you try. Even if he rejects you SO WHAT its his loss, it doesn't mean you are less valuable - people reject Jesus everyday but that doesn't make Jesus any less valuable, the people that reject him are the ones that lose. Never be afraid of rejection. I was afraid of rejection when I asked my wife out the first time but I did it anyway. The rest is history.
7. Theres an assignment I have to get done and I was thinking of asking him to be apart of it, is it okay to ask him? Or even ask him to hang out?
I dont think there is any harm in doing that.
8. If I don't want to approach him to talk with him, then how can he approach me?
There is a video that my wife did called "how to get a guy you like to approach you, there are some really good tips in that video that will help. check it out using this link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0LQcgr-djc&feature=related
9. I am really shy when it comes to getting to know a guy I like, how can I get over my fear in talking with him?
Like I said earlier - FEEL THE FEAR AND DO IT ANYWAY!
