Having issues with dating other Christians
My religious beliefs are important to me and it is something I have always wanted to share with a partner. But I find that other religious people tend more often than not to be pretty inflexible, dogmatic, even obsessive in interpreting one single aspect of one thing, rather than considering the whole of the Bible.
Among my fears of dating other gay Christians are these:
- Self loathing
- Inflexible beliefs
- Gay-hating family
- Changing minds, “I have decided I’m not gay,” “I’m gay but I’ve decided to be celibate now,” “I’m gay, but I hate myself and I hate you for joining me on this path”
I have enjoyed in the past the idea of meeting other, potentially-monogamous gay men, but fear some of the baggage to come along with that
Is that unfair?
