Testimonial:
In August of 2002 a women in Michigan was
preparing her own ad with the words "Ruth looking For Boaz" as
she was wording her ad and looking through the ads she came across one that read
"Boaz looking for Ruth". She felt led by the Lord to contact this man
and in a whirlwind courtship the two married four months later. . .and
"Ruth" became my sister-in-law.
When Meeting People:
- Plan a casual date—based on
what both of you enjoy.
- Make the first date a short one.
This gives you an "out" in case the evening is a disaster.
- Plan to meet at a neutral,
public site where both will feel comfortable.
- Be clear about the arrangements.
- Drive separately; it’s a
safety precaution for both.
- Have some favorite activities in
mind so that you can make suggestions and participate in the planning.
- Until "who’s paying"
is clarified, stick to affordable events or places. (Expecting a first date
to pay for something expensive can lead to problems.)
