Why do most guys (some of them Christians) seem to find it hysterical that I don't date? I find that even girls who date understand my view, but almost no guys do. ~from a girl

Depends what your talking about. If its a bunch of guys it'd probably cause they as a group think you don't want a life with a guy. A single guy saying this is most likely worried another guy will get you and this is a cover up act. I should know. I'm a guy. I won't judge but in what manner do they find it hystericle?

that is really odd... cuz in my circle of friends, quite a few get where I'm coming from... but idk, i guess it depends on what groups you hang out with (not meaning you, yourself, but as in people in general) i know my secular friends think it's odd, but my non christian friends (who aren't exactly opposed to christianity) dont seem to find it weird... idk, maybe a guy can explain it better. I'll get Will to come and answer :D

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

I think I gound out why. It's most likely cause they/we think about dating a lot and the ones who find it strange are probably the ones who don't understand that girls are wired differently. I know this because I'm still tryong to figure you lot out lol. Any way that is probably the reason.

Either it's a lack of respect, or the whole idea of courtship is something they haven't been taught.

Lol probably. Just remember tho7gh that some of them dont have a chabce of knowing anything about courtship. So don't be surprised if some of them don't understand.

Well...There are a few options
A. They're just kinda bogus
B. The thought of dating makes them feel kind of uncomfortable so to mask that they use ridicule. As a dude, I catch myself doing that sometimes. Cool? No. Try to stop it? Yes. :)
C. They're just less mature than you.
I hope that helps. Mind you, I don't know said people, so I could be totally off too. Just suggestions.

Similar to what i said but close to what it could be. This is usually what we guys are like. Usually there's a reason for it. Really depends if he is a jerk or just another guy.

Thanks, I'm sure at least one of those reasons are right! Or perhaps a combination. Very good friends get it but some who aren't christians don't. They think I'm nuts.
