How To Leave A Lasting Impression On Your Christian Online Dating Partner

So you've met, things are going well and you'd like to see them again. How can you leave a lasting impression in their mind?

The answer is simple. Leave something behind. Mind you, a business card is not appropriate here. It's too formal and you don't want them remembering you for your credentials or designation. Something more personalized is appropriate.

This is where you can put your artistic and creative talents into full gear. If you're poetic, you could pen a few lines on a small card and hand it to the person. The lines should not be about them specifically, but about general topics like friendship, relationships, togetherness, warmth, or meetings. But do the writing in advance and keep it for the right moment. Don't try to write a poem on a paper napkin with the person sitting in front of you!

If you don't write poetry, maybe you could write down a favorite verse or an inspirational quote from one of your favorite Christian authors. Word of advice: when choosing verses, you might want to avoid Song of Solomon. (Whew-a little TOO much passion in there!)

Keep such a token with you until the right moment. Just before you leave, if you're sure that this is someone you'd like to see again, hand it over and say, "I made this for you…" Believe me; you'll get a lot more points for saying "I made this for you" than "I bought this for you"!

So what happens if you're not too sure you want to see them again? Just keep it to yourself and save it for the next person.

But if they're a definite keeper and you hand them this personalized token, they're guaranteed to think of you in a much fonder way.

Perhaps you're making such a good impression that you are getting several different offers from several different suitors? Great! You can go on a variety of dates and then compare for yourself and choose the one you feel is right for you.

You don't have to leap for the first person who caught your fancy. You have the right to choose, so go ahead and do it. There's no need to feel guilty about two-timing anybody as long as you don't promise you won't see anyone else. And if you do, you probably don't WANT to see someone else anyway.

When you get to this point, ask for God's leading. He'll steer you towards the right person. Just let Him have the reigns.

And what happens if you bump into date number one while out with date number two? Simple. Just treat it as the most natural thing in the world. Introduce them to each other as your friends and watch how they behave. This is an excellent way of finding out how a jealous spouse may act in the future.
