I need a lot of help, but from Christian people,please! So I like this Jewish girl but I'm Christian and believe that dating someone is not the way to convert them and I will not date her. But she and a lot of other people found out about my thoughts. She doesn't care but a lot of people think I'm being a jerk because of it. I don't understand why though! I have a right to think that and me and the girl are still great friends. Any advice?

What do you mean by "dating someone is not the way to convert them"? I'm sorry if I'm being rude or ignorant in anyway, but can't two people of different religions date, without one converting?

Converting her shouldn't even be of your concern. Everyone has the right to practice their own religion and beliefs.

I strongly agree....Even if you do date she doesn't have to convert...

Well its sort of a Christians mission in life to spread the gospel and gain more followers of Christ. I'm not saying that people don't have the right to have there own religion, I'm just saying that I'm still going to share things about my religion with them because I believe its what I should do and I'd like my girlfriend to have the sand beliefs.

I am Christian. It is my duty to spread the word of God and who wish to follow will follow. It is not my duty to force my beliefs down one's throat. Sure, you can share your beliefs but you must also preserve hers.

I'm not saying I'm "shoving it down ones throat." Since this isn't on topic anymore, would everyone just pretend I never posted at all. Thanks

Christians are called to not marry those with different beliefs because that is how a lot of arguments happen, and one can lead the other astray even. So yes, if a Christian wants to date someone, they should be a strong believer. You can go ahead and witness, but you dont have the right to shove it down the girl's throat. I am not saying you are, I'm just giving you a bit of warning. The person isnt likely to change their beliefs if you start forcing it on them, but this isnt to say you cant try. I would be careful though because they could just go through the motions in order to make you think they converted. Conversion is up to God, we just 'plant the seed'.

I know how you feel my best friend is an Athiest and I'm a Christian but we respect each other's religion very well like if she says oh my God I'm totally fine with that and if we have to go to church during a sleepover then she will go with me without hesitating. So my advice is as long as you respect her religion and she respects your's then you could make a great couple.

so I need a little help here~

theres this guy from a different high school that I've been keeping an eye on, and I can't help but feel so nervous whenever he comes up in a conversation. but not in the way you think.

What happened is I told my friend that I personally think this guy is really attractive, cute and funny. but not long after I told her, she decided to tell a whole bunch of other people? I mean, Im not upset about that. I honestly don't care.

Its just that Im nervous that he might think Im weird because of it? Im not sure if he found out about it or not, and most people tell me he shouldn't be weirded out, because apparently not that many people find him attractive?

I told them that first) what they said wasn't very nice.
second) Im that type of person who looks at the bad side of a situation before the good side.

so pretty much, I get myself all riled up about it, give myself panic attacks and then find out that this person may have been thinking the complete opposite. (In a good way, of course)

Also, Im moving highschools either next year, or next semester. My parents aren't sure yet, but Im scared Im going to walk into the class, they'll introduce me and O (thats what I'll call him) will just think "Oh." but in a grossed out way, ya know?

Alot of my friends told me just act confident about it.

If someone points it out and O's standing right there, tell him.
Just respond with "Hell yeah! Hes fine as hell!"

They told me that he would think its funny, maybe even cute rather then "thats weird!"
I don't know if they're right or not, but how should I react when Im put in a situation like that?

where my thoughts on him (those being hes really attractive and stuff) are laid out on the table, and O's one of the people hearing it?

Im sorry If this post doesn't make sense! Im currently moving rooms, and that means my laptop is packed away somewhere in my old room.

so in other words, Im on mobile and its hard to type on this little phone of mine. ;n;
I also apologize for any grammar mistakes or typos.
Those come often when Im typing on my phone. xD

Reply to post above, codeword: O

You should be confident and believe in yourself. You always need to know that it is not important what others think, and when they say that O is not so attractive, it only matters what you think of him to you. It usually comes across as cute, so I suppose he wouldn't be so weirded out, guys don't usually get weirded out. In. The worst case he'd just ignore it.
Have you spoken to him??
How does he act around you??

You shouldn't feel so pressured about it, nor should you overthink it, it's a whole natural thing that comes with everything, and even if he finds out, so what? It can only be good for you. If he doesn't like you back, you have more time to get over him. But if he likes you back then you have a huge chance and you would get what you possibly wanted.

You should be confident around him, because guys like confident girls, who can stand for themself. Then they can see along with your many qualities also that you can be brave enough to say your feelings out. It's much easier once you've told a person you like them.
If he doesn't like you when you come into class, the only thing that you can let him do is just lightly poke your heart.
Show him you're better then that if he infact ends up being one of those guys.
