At age of 16 my mother placed a copy of I Kissed Dating Goodbye in my hand. And after reading it even the smallest crush was dominated by a single question: Could I marry this girl?
Every date my teen mind swirled with anxiety as I tried to image youth group girls as a 25 year old woman.
What would her college major be, where would we live, how many kids…
And as a teenager who had yet to discover the anti-anxiety medication that allowed me to marry my now wife – this was enough for me to kiss dating goodbye.
- What messages did you receive about dating as a teenager?
