    This is so true. After I (1) prayed for him, he started to send more signals, to which I (2) responded to (still praying since I don’t want to be mistaken again!). Then, when I (3) invited him by throwing some compliments and jokes, I saw him pursuing even more. After some time, we confessed to each other, and now we are together (still praying until now too, I don’t think the praying phase should ever stop). Thank you for this Mark, God bless you!

    Many years ago, I prayed to Father God on the guy I liked in school. Many times I prayed because I'm starting to have feelings for him because he's handsome, nice & a good class leader. My prayer went on for days & after some time, I said: "Father I like him. Maybe I'm already falling in love. But YOUR will be Done..." I just went on with school. Keeping my grades ok. Helping here & there. And doing my prayers. Then I heard 'He' had gotten a girlfriend. I just shrugged my shoulders off & went with school, college & work. Until I met THE person really meant for me. I got married, had Kids, & now a grandmom ❤🧡💜 and still keeping on with my prayers🙏🕊

      I wonder if you would have shown interest if the outcome would have been different? No regrets, I am sure because God blessed you with a family and they wouldn't be who they are? But, I believe there can be more than one if He qualifies. And I believe God works through our choices good or bad. But, He just wants to be part of the process and help us make wise ones. I wonder if it could have happened sooner. But, maybe in your heart of hearts you weren't ready ? Waiting on God isn't passive. No shame here. We grow through experiences and making mistakes and learning from them. I have made my share. Some people blame God for things not happening in their life. The pray and pray and ask why God isn't answering their prayers. All the while God is waiting for them to do something as an act of faith. And to see how God responds and what doors he opens in co junction with that faith step.

      when it seems like the guy is playing games I get pretty let down. A guy can say anything but it’s through their actions that lets me know that they are serious. Was in a 6 year relationship with a man who manipulated, gas lit, played the victim, never wanted to get better…so if I even sense that a man is playing games I have a tendency to lash out. 😕I do like how you say be clear in your intentions but it’s kind of hard when I’ve only known the person for two weeks.

      I don't know... I've taken a shine to someone at church and I pray about him and I and always ask according to God's will. Next thing I know the fellow is talking to me for hours at church, invited me for a hike... I start thinking about, he chills out... I pray and ask not to get overly emotionally involved prematurely and I notice immediately that my feelings about the fellow subside enough that I can chill too. We're still in touch and I think our interest will grow (or not)... Really, all I can do is pray and maintain interaction with this gentleman on a level of interest that matches his. The best thing is to not start fantasizing about a future that does not yet exist. 🤭

    My dear women, don't fall for the last tip. Stay in your lane and the right man will come to you. Sometimes the person we like isn't the one God has planned for us. We don't need to approach no man, because he could be already taken and if he didn't approach you, could be because he doesn't think you are the one or he has issues that needs to be solved first. Don't be desperate for man. If you still waiting is because God wants that way. He wants you to focus somewhere else and the right man will come naturally, when you at least expect it. ❤

I think being their friend first is important and it will help you to get to know them better and see how they act around you and others. This is my current goal as I don’t want to rush into a brand new relationship and get hurt again. I enjoy being surrounded by my friends as I’m around the guy I like

    I love that God works so much in my singleness. He's so wonderful and good to protect from what I can't see. And keeps me in His sovereignty. I know He's delivering me from things now to prepare the way for me in the future. What this video just helped me see clearly is what God is speaking strongly in my life is to be proactive in the things of God. When God speaks He SPEAKS. And it's truth I delight in. Thanks Mark for the video!!! 😊

God is bigger and can fill the hole your ex made in your life. His love is unconditional and makes up for whatever hatred or hold the ex has over you. The ex has stepped foreword in life, you should do the same.

    Ladies, I just want to clarify one thing. I, like most men, failed mind reading in High School, and then never showed up for the make-up exam. So trust me on this. If you want us to pursue, please do everything you can to avoid sending mixed signals. When we see that, we often just assume we read too much into the positive signals (wishful thinking on our part), and the negative ones are your real feelings. And then you're left feeling like we were just jerks, when all we're really doing is respecting what we thought your "wishes" were in the matter. I'm not saying throw yourself at some guys feet and beg him to ask you out (though, honestly, I've known some guys that might have actually needed something like that to break their "shyness" barrier), but by all means, give us a clear signal. We're actually just as afraid of being hurt or rejected as you are ("That Little Red-Haired girl will probably laugh in my face. It's hard on a face when it's laughed in!" -- Charlie Brown), so consistently encouraging us really helps us take that next step.

      In shorter words: if you find a girl attractive go talk to her (:

      @@livelyasmr Or, and just hear me out here, maybe love is a two-way street and you both have to be brave once in a while. Besides, I didn't say a thing about "flirting." There are lots of ways to show you are interested without going that far. More importantly, a lot of times you ladies send mixed signals without even realizing it, and a true gentleman will respond to the "not interested" signals instead of the "interested" ones simply because he doesn't want to annoy you. Think about it.

We’ve talked a little, he helped me with some home repair stuff and I invited him for dinner to say thank you whenever he’s in my area. I guess we’ll see what happens.

    The first thing a Godly woman or man should do is find out if God is authorizing your interest in this person and waiting for His yes or no on it. And also *His* time and season for the relationship if that is what He is allowing. Why do we repeat *Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”* If we aren’t doing it? Entering into a relationship that God has not authorized can cause an unnecessary hardship in your life. It is not worth it. *Ask God. Trust God. Wait on God.* 🇨🇦

    So.. this video came out (I think) the same day I met a guy who I thought was really cool. And I'm still praying about things, to try to fully leave the situation in God's hands and not worry about it, and today someone "liked" a comment I made on here, redirecting me back to this video when I had mostly forgotten about it. Which reminded me to keep praying and... be brave. I like how being more firm/definite (in terms of expressing my feelings by responding to a guy, and inviting him) does sound like it will gently reveal his interest level and any motives, which is in everyone's benefit, because I do have a problem with getting hung up on guys who are not interested and wasting time and causing other problems. But if he IS interested, then, that would be a whole other ballpark that I would need to pray and walk through just as carefully. So, Brother Mark, Thanks again for the advice, and, if you don't mind, whoever reads this, say a little prayer for God's will to be done in this situation! It really is a blessing to have sound biblical advice available. Thank you so much. God bless!!

It was kinda embarrassing and I felt like such a dork...and it hurt when I quickly found out the truth from a few guys (over some years lol). But I’m glad for the lesson tho. It’s better to find out the truth sooner rather than later and just rip off the band aid right away if they’re not interested or if God says not this or that one. It hurts worse to stick around in fantasy land or stick around with the wrong one and lie to yourself for too long.
