Christians, I'm in love with a girl that is an atheist. What should I do?

I fell in love with this girl I know, I'm 17 and she's 19. We met in high school a year ago. She's a freshman in college now and i'm a senior in high school.

I've dated lots of girls in my time, and all of the christian girls just don't.. click, you know?

We have been good friends for a while. We try to chill with eachother every time we can. maybe once a week and a half. We go to NYC, Restaurants, movies, shows. We basically fit like peas and pods. She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life, she's a REALLY SKILLED gamer girl, she beat me on Call of Duty and Online computer games a few times. Awesome studio dancer, and she's really smart. I love everything about her, except that she's super duper atheist. She's really experienced in life, she has been through drugs, sex, abuse and she knows what to do and what not to do. But I feel that we can connect physically but not Spiritually.

What do I do? I don't think I can bring her into my faith.Christians, I'm in love with a girl that is an atheist. What should I do?
"super duper atheist"? WTF is that supposed to mean?



My advice is don't start preaching to her.If you do,she will dump you.You don't want that to happen do you? You should forget that god damn book for once in your life and have fun with her.
""Christians, I'm in love with a girl that is an atheist. What should I do?""



---- FORGET her. It has no chance of being a good experience for neither.Christians, I'm in love with a girl that is an atheist. What should I do?
Jesus would love her anyway.
Don't sweat it. That college - high school thing never works out anyhow.Christians, I'm in love with a girl that is an atheist. What should I do?
What's wrong with just loving her and playing CoD for the rest of your lives together?
Any man can connect with any woman physically. This is nothing new. However, the real question to ask yourself is; how strong is your faith? Do you know enough about your faith to defend it from criticisms, and if so, are you strong enough to hold on to your faith, despite being in a relationship with someone who feels otherwise?



Many relationship taboos within the church are based upon this problem of Christians losing their faith, due to intermarrying with other cultures. If this is not a risk for you, then you have no reason to avoid her, unless you feel she's trying to tempt you into sin.



Also, Doctor Scott Hahn's experiences with his wife Kimberly may prove helpful in this situation. He spent some time talking to her about the differences in their beliefs, then started dwelling on the similarities with her; the things they both enjoyed about their lives, etc... Eventually, she decided that she wanted to be part of the same faith as him, once she saw his strength and love. This may be the best tactic to use, rather than trying to beat her over the head with theology.



At the same time, there will be obstacles to marriage between you if she doesn't believe in religious marriage. Spend some time getting to know one another on a reasonable level, and if she's truly wrong for you, then don't pursue the relationship, but if she's reasonable, and she really admires you and cares about you, then confide in her. If she really loves you, she won't dismiss your concerns out of hand.



This is the best advice that I can offer.
Woah, hold up.



This woman has been through sexual and drug experiences, and she's the girl of your dreams?



I think you need to strongly stand back and examine further what you're saying.

This woman has lived a promiscuous alternative lifestyle.

And the add to that, she is as you say, "super duper atheist".



Maybe try buying her a Bible, and reading with her?

Start in the New Testament, and read from Matthew to John.

Those chapters alone should help determine if she is willing to change or not.



Be sure to pray for her, and have your family and friends pray.

Maybe even have your church pray for her.
