Author	Thread: Why can't the young and the old find the right person?
Admin	Why can't the young and the old find the right person? Posted : 11 Mar, 2011 12:08 PM Why can't the young and the old find the right person for Marriage? I am posting this in each section, because of the importance in getting responses. I look back when I met my ex-wife 35 years ago. We bumped into each other in a parking lot. We smiled at each other, and then we talked to each other. Then I called her for a date and we both knew soon after, we were in love. We were not equally yoked, but the pastor from my church didn't put emphasis on the matter, after 27 years of marriage, then came our divorce. Can we really find Love on the Internet? Many say they can. I have a son 30 and a daughter 24 and neither are in a relationship. I see more young people on here than the older ones. I believe people are not the same as they were 40 years ago. People today would rather surf the web for a date than look for a date. People in general don�t smile to strangers, let alone speak to strangers. If they do, they would rather text on the phone or email than call them again. The core to the problem, people are interested in their gadgets and their busy lives more than the fellowship in talking with them in person. We need to get back to the Golden Rule that we have lost over the years. We should be kind and love everyone, that is what the Bible tells us to do! Is it because we are living in the last days? Would love to hear what others think about this issue. :buddies: Post Reply

We hear of wars and rumors of wars, natural diasters are on the rise in that they are happening more frequently and men's hearts are waxing cold. I think that internet dating is one of the responses to the change in ourculture and world. As much as we may long for the times of old, you can not stop progress or the change that occurs because of it. The Amish chose not to adjust to the change that the world made and choose to live like real life Little House on the Praire. We must adjust and cope and those of us that know what the Word says concerning love and being a light to the world, must continue to do so while going with the flow. Post Reply

Posted : 12 Mar, 2011 12:50 PM Yes, and perhaps because it is the last days it is something to be praised, trying to find a husband or a wife who loves the Lord in a sea of people who not only don't love him, but actually hate him. Everything is effected by the last days, not just dating. People have become a lot colder. Post Reply
