I wouldn’t feel bad; I think that everyone has spoken their piece at this point and some good points have been made/good advice has been given. Also, interesting perspective about friendship with unbelievers. I don’t feel like we should cut off all friendship from unbelievers, but at the same...

Thank you, I appreciate it.

I work in the fast food industry but I’m only half of a people person. Sometimes it gets so tiring having to talk with people all day. But then at other times my brain sort of wanders while I’m working in the sense that I can be talking to the customers just fine but be thinking about something...

I know that we’ll continue to be friends even if dating doesn’t work out though, so we won’t be avoiding each other I do appreciate the advice though.

Yeah, that’s probably good advice

Yep, 100% agree. And that’s how I handle my relationships. (But maybe you were saying this in reference to the other person?)

Yeah, we met as coworkers. What I was asking was, in what way are you asking about the flexibility of my job? Like, what are you getting at specifically?

Hm in what way?

Yeah I can feel this. Took me forever to move past my first relationship when it ended. At the end though I was thankful that it didn’t work out. I’m glad that God has been able to help you through these painful things that you’ve dealt with. And again, it helps to hear people relate their own...

First of all, kudos for this reply cause you actually kept with the spirit of the initial post/concern (I’ve written a lot of stuff that’s strayed from the original point of this post🙃😅) This is definitely encouraging though cause I was feeling so badly about potentially being the reason that...

More or less. But like I’ve said before I’ve overstepped the friendship boundary before so I’m at least personally partially responsible for their confusion/frustration. Something else I’ve thought about. And just your overall thoughts on the situation are very good.

Easier said than done, but rings true nonetheless. But like I mentioned somewhere else, if God wants this relationship to be, then it’s going to be. I just wonder if God is waiting for me to do something.

Yeah, I think that you’re on track with this. And it’s also exactly what I’m afraid of if I decide to date this person. I fear that this would be the more likely outcome than them becoming saved. It does help that you’ve also shared a little about your own experiences, so thank you for that...

Another thing which is making this hard to navigate is that this person is completely willing to let me pursue my faith. Like, they aren’t trying to pull me away from it or anything.

This has really really been sticking in my mind.

That’s been sticking in my mind too. As much as I want a relationship with this person, I know that the most successful relationships have God right in the center of them. That wouldn’t exactly be happening in this relationship unless this person really truly became born again.

Yeah, I would definitely hate to get in a relationship and then have it end like this. Relationships are kind of scary in that sense; you never know how long they will last. And that goes for any type of relationship.

Also I hope that it doesn’t come across like I am trying to justify trying to date/dating an unbeliever. I’m just trying to explain and be honest about my thoughts and feelings. The poor mental health on both sides is also making this a tricky situation.

See that’s why it’s a problem though cause I do want to date them, I just feel like I can’t/shouldn’t. This person believes that God exists and such but they said that they don’t have a reason to follow Him at this point in their life. Maybe because they don’t know much about Him. And yeah I...

You’re good😂👌🏻
