If you call yourself 'Christian' do you or would you go to 'Christian' singles events?

Just seen an ad for one that's on tomorrow night in the local area claiming to be all about 'Christian inclusivity'. It's not for me, but a few women I know are single and 'Christian' so might be interested.

Hmmm. The ticketing page already looks to show 'sold out' for both the men's and women's tickets in most of the age categories. That's going to disappoint people.

Do single Christians 'date' differently to non-Christians? Never really asked anyone about that. With 'normal' non-Christian singles events women always out-number men at the ones I've tried out. I've made a few matches, had a couple of proper first dates, but no seconds.

I'm given to understand that in Christianity sins may be forgiven. I reckon that there's nothing wrong with a little temptation now and again.

@GerOttman Why would 'Christian singles' dating then be any different to 'normal singles' dating? Why are so-called Christians any different to other people, or special, or unique, when it comes to dating?

@butterflybaby75 I suppose the major difference would be the shared values and community. Consider, in a random dating situation we may encounter a dating partner with very different expectations and culture norms.

I dated a jewish girl briefly years ago. We clearly liked each other but it became clear very quickly that we were in completely different cultures. There was no chance for a real long term relationship and we both moved on. I ran into her some years later at a party and met her husband. She married a nice jewish man and appeared quite happy!
