Ok i read this book while i was pondering on issues associated with relationships with the opposite sex, and i found out that alot of the issues discussed in it were very true and called for us christians to be radical about the dating game at the same time. Well when i say radical, it really goes against the norms of our modern culture at present and it provides a challenge, maybe that's why it was an interesting read to me.
It talked about short term relationships, and how when a guy and girl get together, most of the time they are still young, and not wanting to settle down so quickly they break off halfway and this results in alot of hurt, hurt that becomes past hurt and continues to build after each 'failed attempt'. Therefore it talks about the small things, the details about relationships that we really have to be careful about. Are we in the game to just have fun, or for sex, or for mine or your selfish desires? A thought-provoking read, plus issues are discussed sensibly.
PS: I got it back from my friend, if yall wana borrow it just get at me ok? cheers.

hmm interesting book ben. will love to borrow it when whoever is done with it. My philosophy is, If you wanna get into a relationship do you see yourself marrying her/him coz for me its not juz all for fun. Thats y i have not gotten into a relationship before. And if u get into a relationship, is it a God centered relationship.For example you'll pray together before you both make a decision. Something for us to think about.

I LOVE THIS BOOK. Oh my. I passed it around to my friends and they LOVED IT. One of my friends said this was the only book she's read in a looooong time. I agree.
I agree with the book, the views. it made me rethink all my views on dating and i'm so glad i stumbled across this. it challenges me to be open about my personal love life in how I see people and such.
i have a copy but its beng tossed somewhere.
its an awesome book and the issues are discussed really really well.
Also makes me wonder. At this age, sometimes I'm hardly comfortable within myself. What right do I have to ask someone to commit to this still-searching me?
And yeah. the whole thing about keeping commitments when in relationship. really made me think!
