Agreed. I was quite happy being married. It does force you to come outside yourself so that you also must consider another's needs. Hardly unChristian. But, it is also great when she does something sweet and thoughtful for you, provides you with warm companionship, texts you in the middle of the day to say she loves you, or is fully uninhibited with you behind closed doors

And, you have heard here that there's no sex in heaven, therefore, why dating? I don't know. Why will there be eating? Will we need to eat? Why will their be visions of visual beauty or beautiful music to bless our ears? Why anything sensual at all?
Sensuality is not an evil thing. It's its overindulgence that's evil.
We do not know what God has in store for us. What I can tell you is something that... I think it was Franklin Graham?? said to Sean Hannity, when he asked him that question, 'Is there sex in Heaven?'. His response? Not unless there's something better.
Awesome answer. So, I would not listen to those here who get dogmatic about it and are so spiritual that sex means nothing to them. I'm not that spiritual, and I hope for the same thing you do. And, with other types of physical enjoyment in heaven, why not that or something "graduated" to a higher level in an idyllic environment?

Oh okay...*I had to look that up*....

If it was wrong for women to have sex with immortal angels on the earth, then maybe you should stay away from mortal women on the earth if you are immortal. I am hoping something in our desires change when we are transformed to be like Christ. My understanding is that struggles with the flesh are for this age.
There is probably some country where a mature white man could find a young woman to marry here in this age, maybe some tribe in Africa. I think this happens to some extent in the Philippines, too. If the US dating market isn't working for you, you could look overseas. Now, I married in my late 20s, and I didn't go overseas just to get married. I was working overseas. But I married an Indonesian woman, and a lot of women there are kind of traditional when it comes to marriage-- wanting to take good care of the household, etc. It's a majority Muslim country but there are also millions of Christians.
