What I
don't do or ever will because women can't stand my presence. A complete waste of
time for someone actually wanting to get in a serious
relationship with someone. Nothing but an act between two fake people trying to put their best foot forward and impress each other so they can potentially jump each other's bones. In Western culture dating is a precursor to
marriage but, ironically, will do no more for you in getting to know a person than watching a sport on tv will make you a professional ballplayer. It's also an incredible waste of
time because getting together for a romantic rondezvous or outing will do next to nothing in making you connect emotionally or spiritually.
Dating is a new phenomenon and didn't come around until the mid to late 20th century. Before the era of dating, a couple would often "court" each other or marriages were even prearranged. If one is religious, especially with someone who practices
Christianity, dating is NOT Biblical because not only does dating usually result in heartache when the two persons involved go their seperate ways, but there is no comitment between the two parties. It was
never practiced for cultural reasons. For Christians, dating is not Biblical because God himself does not want people to experience the emptiness and heartache it often brings. For the secular world, however, dating is as normal as taking a nap.
Dating CAN lead to
marriage but usually doesn't, unlike courting.
