<p>i would love to hear from single Jesus-loving guys who read this blog. This seems to be <strong>a really huge cry</strong> from Jesus-loving women out there and i really think it&#8217;s <strong>important that we hear both sides</strong>. I don&#8217;t believe this is only a guy responsibility. I think there are <strong>issues on both sides</strong> of this dilemma and the best way to move forward on it is to hear from guys in the situation. </p>
<p>Here are some of my questions:</p>
<p><strong>* Do you think it is fair to say that the guys in church need to step up and take some responsibility on this issue?</p>
<p>* In what areas do you think the girls in church need to take responsibility for the situation? </p>
<p>* What do girls do or fail to do that exacerbates (increase) the issue?</p>
<p>* What can the girls do to make it easier for you guys to ask them out/initiate relationships? </strong></p>
<p><a href="https://brettfish.wordpress.com/2011/03/14/dating-q-and-a-where-have-all-the-good-christian-men-gone-the-email/">In case you were not yet aware of what issue we are talking about,</a> the topic was raised when I wrote that you need to date someone who has Jesus as their number one focus. <strong>A bunch of girls</strong> responded by saying <strong>&#8220;where are these guys?&#8221;</strong> &#8211; either they don&#8217;t exist (Christ-following girls outnumber Christ-following guys in church) or else they are not asking us out. </p>
<p>From a single guys perspective, <strong>what are your thoughts?</strong> Why is it that girls have this perception which <strong>often leads to them dating people outside of the church</strong> cos of frustration or loneliness and lack of opportunity? </p>
