How to Ruin Your Dating Life

This morning I stumbled across the blog Jesus Needs New PR, the title alone made me want to stop and read a few post. So I did.
Matthew Paul Turner, whom I do not know, writes the blog JNNPR. And I do believe, I’ve discovered a new daily read. One of his older post I read was an excerpt of his new Christian dating book …. How to Ruin your Dating Life. I thought I'd share his advice to my Blogger World.

How to Ruin Your Dating Life: A Christian's Guide for Avoiding (Almost) Every Mistake in the Book
Okay, so if you happen to find yourself joining a church singles’ group, do yourself a big favor and follow these rules. Seriously, please do this. I (Matthew) promise that the very essence of your dating career depends on it.

• It’s not a hookup joint. That’s not to say hookups won’t happen—and it would actually be awesome if they happened more often—but if you join a Christian singles’ group with the motive of hooking up, may the fake gods of unwanted celibacy fall upon you for many moons. [No, I’m not New Age.]


• Resist the temptation to make the group your only friends. Sure, they’re nice people, but you’ll need a little more cultural influence than just them! Trust me, I know that "Sheila" is a nice woman, but if you don’t want to be the next forty-seven-year-old single to be spearheading your yearly "Unmarried Servants’ Fall Retreat," I suggest you keep your singles’ group attendance on a very tight leash. Or you know that Sheila will be nominating you to replace her when she turns forty-eight.


• If your singles’ group is known by an acronym, leave immediately. I’m not trying to make you a stuck-up jerk, but come on, you’ve got a reputation to protect, and attending the FLOCK—Females Living Out Christ’s Kingdom—is only making that more difficult.

• Keep it to one "singles" activity a week [maybe two, but only if they’re mission related]. Just trust me on this one, all right?

• If you’re a male over the age of thirty and you attend a church singles’ group that’s mostly female and under the age of twenty-three, I hate to break it to you, but everybody thinks you’re creepy. And if you have a mustache or goatee, multiply that creepiness times ten.

• If upon joining a church singles’ group, the word single becomes about as tolerable as the words moist, sack, or pianist, you might want to find a new church. Believe it or not, single isn’t a dirty word.

• No hooking up on missions trips. You know when the music fades, so will the relationship.For more information on How To Ruin Your Dating Life, buy the book.

So my latest idea to meet men by joining a new church isn't such a good idea, huh?

Stacey said...

That is the FUNNIEST thing I've read in a long time.

Bone said...

Haha. I think we've all known a Sheila.

I had a friend one time who seemingly chose the church he attended by the girls who went there. I thought that odd. Then again, he is married now.

May Vanderbilt said...

Seriously, this is a scream. I love that you hate the words moist and sack too!

Plus, I love Matthew Paul Turner. He's so funny and bold. You almost never see boldness anymore.

heather hub said...
