What is a date
by Jacob on May 29, 2005, under Religion
Recently in church we’ve been talking about dating. I guess thats what I get for being in a student ward. Anyway, today in one of our meetings we went over Elder Oaks’ CES Fireside talk: The Dedication of a Lifetime.
In this talk, Elder Oaks describes what a date is:
A date must pass the test of three p’s: (1) planned ahead, (2) paid for, and (3) paired off.
A lot of my dates recently haven’t cost me any money, so I guess they are paid for. I think the biggest problem is with planning ahead. I like to do a lot of things randomly, without planning ahead a lot. How much planning ahead counts? A few minutes, an hour or two? What if its something I’ve considered for a couple of days, but only asked the girl a few hours a head of time? Is that planning ahead?
