- Being intentional during a romantic relationship is important. Out of a desire to honor God and the other person, the relationship should be pursued in a purposeful way.

I love how fun, energetic, and goofy you all are in this video!! Is it the excitement of the upcoming wedding? 🌸
Thank you. Amen, it's always better to know what's the purpose of a relationship, to be intentional. That's why courtship works well for me. It's purposeful and intentional.
Keeping it real.
Let's face it, marriage is work! Better gone into prepared, and not just dreamy-eyed. But it's fun-work, and that's what intentionality or purposefulness provides.
Personally had to read godly books on marriage, children, leadership, and business added to lots of intimate discussions about our future together. Serving in the same local church with her helped a lot too.
That was a decade ago. Thank you Jesus.
Great video y'all! This is exactly what I needed to hear, thank you for all you do!
Oooo..Can you do a video about Long Distance Relationships
Princess Bina Chosen YES
GREAT IDEA
PLEASE DO THIS!!
I was literally coming down to comment this! I really like this guy, but he lives 4 hours away from me where my parents live. I see him frequently when I go home to visit my parents, but in the long run, I don’t want to date him and then neither of us compromise on where to live! He doesn’t know where he wants to go, I’m happy with staying where I am for a while... but idk if I should risk that.
uau. i was just thinking about this. You were talking about going to the same study group, but... in long distance relationships there is not much you can do about that. Exept for phone calls or video calls which are not the same thing with being there phisically. Any advice on that?
I'm 17 and dating is way off the radar but these videos are just soo helpful .Thankyou
aobcldeefcghcake These girls preach love, not hate. Why are you here?
oh no
Joey Burgess oh yes
17 is a great (and usual) age to start dating!! be yourself and do what makes your heart happy ♡ i would never take any advice from these two
It’s hard to do the Christian life and especially dating alone. My husband and I stayed pure with one another by having very close friends helping to hold us accountable, and we set boundaries both physical and social, that includes giving our twenty-something selves a curfew!
Wow that is really awesome
I think an important part of being intentional is getting to know the other in different settings. I know I behave slightly differently with college friends than with my siblings, I'm different on a sunday stroll than in an amusement park; and still all of that makes the essence of me. I want to know different asppects of the guy as well!
I also feel lime meeting in group settings (game night, bible study, saturday beach trip, ...) rather than one on one takes off a lot of pressure. You don't have to carry the conversation on your own, instead you can lean back a little and observe the other in conversation and vice versa.
Yes pls do one on a long distance relationship. Personally, I don't think they work out too well, but I'd love to hear about it:) Congradulations Bethany! You're in my prayers!
Yo

Well done ladies!!!! I always look forward to Wednesdays
I guess one thing I’ve done is because I struggle with a lot of mental illness I have kind of put myself first for the last few years so that I can be healthy enough to be in a relationship
Can we hear more about Kristen and Zach's story?!
Thx girls. Btw just bought love defined been trying to get my hands on for a while so yayyyy
Loved this! Thank you so much! 😊💕
Not just doing Bible studies specifically about marriage together is great, but also study any book from the Bible together I'd really recommend. My and my boyfriend are currently reading Judges with the help of the book Judges for you by Tim Keller and we're surprised by not only how much we learn from the Bible (which should be the main focus), but also how this builds our relationship and what we learn about each other. We have experienced many blessings by studying the Bible together. Also, it will keep your main focus of the relationship on Christ and getting to know each other personally, instead of getting to know each other physically really well which could be tempting.
Guys I have a question... How do we know when to ask those questions about the relationship to a guy? Cause for me I never know if he just wants to be friends, or if I'm going to fast. I feel like I can only know if I want a relationship with him asking those questions but i'm scared to be "attacking" him, you know what I mean? I prefer if the guy says his intentions without me asking...
Wow, you sound like you're on the right track. And yes, I know what you mean. You should never be pro-active in a relationship with a guy. If you are ever wondering if you are going too fast, you are. We (I'm a guy) like to be the ones who are pro-active. You should always assume a guy wants to be friends even if he asks you out. And as long as you are friends, you should always assume you are paying your own way unless he insists or until you are romantic. If a guy wants to have a romantic relationship with you, the transition should be established in a conversation not just something you fall into. Let the guy bring it up and let the guy be the one to ask the questions, not you. A guy will know if you want to be romantic, and he will respect you if you let him bring it up. On some occasions, you might be with a guy who wants to jump the gun and transition into a romantic relationship without a conversation. That's when you should put on the brakes - and only then should you initiate the conversation and ask the questions and get some verbal clarity. But I will say that a godly man who respects you is going to discuss being romantic before getting romantic. I like that you are asking about it. 🤗 A lot of people prefer ambiguity in their relationships (men and women have different motives), and that leads to trouble. Blessings.
Great stuff, ladies! Thank you :)
Hi! girls. Thanks for sharing n reminding us to be intentional. I alwaz wonder what should b my question list. U have mentioned about d List of questions. that's great. 😁 Can u please provide d link for list of questions? and when should v start asking questions I mean after how many days of a relationship? actually I m not in a relationship but wants to know.
SHALINI PETER I found the questions on their website here www.girldefined.com/136-questions-to-ask-in-a-relationship
Where can I find this list of 150 questions on your website?
I’m having trouble finding the questions you guys were talking about. Where can I find those?
Look here, it’s in their blog: www.girldefined.com/136-questions-to-ask-in-a-relationship
Thank you! 😊👍
Thank you! So helpful!!!!
Sacred marriage🙌🙌🙌🙌❤❤❤
Hi! I love y’all and your message so much! What is the link on your website to the questions you and your boyfriend should go through together?
I have been so inspired by your videos and I want to use the list you mentioned. I am having trouble finding it tho. Can you help?
I'm intentional without a relationship yet have found nothing. I hear many people complain about the work involved in relationships. I'd gladly do that work, at least I'd have someone.
Finding My True Love to be honest I hear that relationships are hard work, and I don’t get it. If it’s that hard, move on. I feel like if it’s so hard that you don’t want to be in it anymore there’s nothing wrong with finding someone else or being alone. I guess to each their own though.
Then again maybe I got super lucky and just found someone who was super compatible with me. We fight and disagree but it’s never been “hard work” because we love each other no matter what.
Thank you for this. 😊👍👍
Perfect timing
Thanks ladies
Why is there so many troll comments? Y’all have so many haters lol
Robert Mallory I found them on their website here www.girldefined.com/136-questions-to-ask-in-a-relationship
Robert Mallory cause they talk about controversial subjects that not everyone is going to agree with, including me. Especially on their blogs.
Because fedorafuckers are only there to defend the cummies rather than have anything intelligent to say about those videos.
Bethany, what type and color of foundation do you use?
Are the intentional questions linked down below? Can someone post where I can find the list?:)
Great 👍 advice 😊💯
I want a relationship because to love someone and be loved by someone I have never been in a relationship before none of the guys like Or care about me I am not like the other girls
I love it.
Thank you ladies, great video! ❤️
Firstttt
Do married Christian couples have to have kids? Sorry really off topic haha xx
Yes purpose of marriage is to build a family with children
No, that's definetly a personal decision. Especially when some women are incapable of having children and it causes feelings of inadequacy and depression and a million other problems psychologically and physically for the women who can't because of the harsh standards that Christians put on marriage. It's definetly up to you and nowhere in the Bible does it say that not having children in marriage is a sin. ♡
Well in case of infertility, that's not really a personal decision, isn't it? It is indeed a painful cross to bear, I don't question it, but it's ultimately God's will.
But I actually need to correct myself: I just realised I was actually referring to sexual intercourse within the marriage, rather than marriage itself. You and your spouse can decide to live in chastity and that's totally great as well.
@@onigirimely1 I'm not having kids, I'm having birth control pills.
Jordan Bishop are you a Christian?
