Dating Rules

I mentioned in my last post a few of my mom's dating rules and so I've decided to post the whole list (: Now this won't be word for word what our list of rules is because I'm doing it by memory not by copying the paper.
 Dating Rules:
#1. No dating before age 18
The "dating age" will not change just because you meet your special someone before you reach 18. You do need to go dating until you are closer or at an age where you are ready to be married
#2. No touching
To avoid accidental touching, keep a minimum of 6 inches between you and your special someone.
#3. Always have a chaperone
Never go off alone with your special someone. Temptation is far too easy to give in to. That's why God gave you siblings- instant chaperones!
#4. No sex before marriage
And after that only sex with your wife/husband. (duh)
#5. Be honest
with your special someone, with your family and your special someone's family. If you are truly interested in someone, then you should never lie to them.
#6. Do not date an unbeliever
"Be ye not unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness and what communion has light with darkness? " 1 Corinthians 6:14 KJV. Also, find out what their beliefs are and if they vary with your own.
#7.Listen to your family
Your family can see any flaws in your special someone that there may be. Whereas you more than likely won't notice them because you are blinded by love/infatuation
#8. Forge a friendship with your special someone
Friendships are a wonderful base for a relationship and then,even if your relationship does not go far, at least you will now have a good friend
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 Do your parents have rules regarding dating set up for you? If so, maybe do a blog post about them. I'm sure others would love to hear about them. I know I would!

God bless!
