Hello there,

Recently I have met this amazing guy who I fell in love with. From our very first conversation he knew I was a Christian girl, don’t drink, smoke, club and so on. He admired this a lot and things have started moving on pretty nice. We have been dating, doing a lot of fun, romantic stuff and I can see and feel that he cares about me a lot.

I have made it clear that I will not have sex before marriage and although we had our moments of kissing and touching, I never let it escalate and he never forced me into doing anything I was not comfortable with.

I like how things are going between us for almost 6 months now, but during all this time, although he knew that I was going to church every Sunday, he never asked to come with me ( not even out of curiosity). He believes in God, respects Him and me, but he is not Pentecostal, like I am, and I don’t wanna force my beliefs. He occasionally goes out with his friends, has some drinks and danced around, stuff I don’t personally do/agree with, but don’t judge either. When I try to discuss this with him he says that his interest should come from within, a need for change that he needs to feel himself rather than just come with me for my sake. I have been waiting for this to happen, but I do not want to continue this relationship in this uncertainty. I grew up in a Pentecostal family, and I admit that I wouldn’t be who I am today if my parents didn’t raise me the way they did. So, I want to have a boyfriend that comes with me to Church, someone that shares my beliefs and I wanna educate my children in the same way I was raised.

I love this boy, I respect him for his mindset and education, but how can I be sure that he is the one in this situation? I do not want him to come to church because I “drag” him or just be there for me. I know God has His own perfect way of working things out, and I have tried ending this relationship twice now, but we really love and care for each other.

God has blessed me in so many ways, I do not want to upset Him by being with this boy, but my heart is so fond of him...

Please join me in prayer, so that God can give me wisdom to handle this properly, and if you have ever been in similar situation, share a piece of advice!

Thank you in advance, God bless!
