Use the D word gentlemen…call it a DATE!

I drafted this in my head while running, so I hope it makes some sense.

Our society is so twisted. We have a majority of women pursuing men and men who just sit cozily back and wait for women to come to them. Sadly, this is the world we live in. And because a large percentage of men don’t pursue women, women get frustrated and wonder, Wait was it something I said? Did I do something to offend him? Maybe I’m not pretty enough? Maybe I should change something about myself so I‘m more attractive? 

Have you heard of Matt Fradd? If not, go look him up because he is awesome! He has been such an amazing help to me as I have launched Made in His Image. I am so blessed to know him. If you haven’t heard of Matt Fradd, he is a chastity speaker that works for Catholic Answers in San, Diego, CA. Matt is also the founder of the Porn Effect, but you will find all of this out and much more when you check out his website.

I once listened to Matt being interviewed by Brandon Vogt (who is awesome too by the way)! In his interview, Matt talked about this problem of how so many men don’t step up and pursue women because of the immense exposure to pornography in our society. He talked about how pornography trains men to step back and let women come to them. Now I’m not saying that all men who don’t ask women on dates are addicted to pornography, so please don’t think that.

But I do think he brings to light a vital point. Our society today is teaching men to just sit back and be passive and for women to step up and pursue them if they desire a relationship. This mentality is so backward, and is not how God designed it to be. So what do we do about it?

Men of virtue, you need to step up and ask women out on dates. Don’t call it hanging out, getting coffee, grabbing a drink, call it a date because that’s what it is!

Ladies, we need to be patient and work on our relationship with God and trust that He has the perfect plan. God the Father created the entire universe and He didn’t forget about you and your beautiful heart. But He yearns for your love and desires you to have a relationship with Him before you give your heart to a man. He must be first and foremost in your life before you can ever properly love another man.

“A man must know he is powerful; he must know he has what it takes. A woman must know she is beautiful; she must know she is worth fighting for.” – Wild at Heart
