Hey everyone, I really need some advice.
I've been dating this guy for the past 6 months and we met on a dating website. His profile caught my attention because he said he was a Christian. We started talking and had a lot in common. He told me he had been engaged before but he was dumped by his fiancé (she was the daughter of the pastor) and she got together with another guy. He stopped going to church soon after they broke up.
Three months into our relationship I ended up in sin and we ended up sending pictures to each other and sexting. But after a few days I told him I couldn't do it anymore because it was extremely wrong and I never talked to him about anything sex related because on that day I told him my focus would be on God, not on my own wishes. After that he got a little frustrated and said that the sexual jokes he made (till this day) were just jokes because he's always stressed about work; we continued dating. Now, what really made me sad was the fact that he told me he wanted to go on a Christian event with me so we could meet for the first time, yet he doesn't show that he's interested in God nor the bible (he used to be a youth pastor when he was dating his fiance) and I encouraged him to talk about the bible, I even organized some bible studies and I send him a bible verse everyday but he doesn't lead me on faith. I really love him and I didn't want to break up with him because I feel like besides all that he's a really good guy and I wanted to help him with his faith, to save his soul for the Lord but today I ended up breaking up with him, but told him that if he wanted to we could help each other to grow closer to God before dating again. I wonder if I did the right thing or if I should have waited a little more and try and help him. Sorry if this is really long but please share your thoughts I'll REALLY appreciate it. Thank you!!
