Not to necro this thread too mcuh…
But I have to agree, meeting sometimes at church is quite hard, it seems all the young single women (20s-30s) rush in last minute and leave after communion, skipping the blessing) - But I have seen some singles I would like to at least introduce myself too, but they are rushing out and I always stay till end of the last song.
I have dated, and recently out of a 6 month relationship with a great woman, but was still emotionally attached to her ex(s) and just on a differant path spirtually. I have yet to date a Catholic woman, though I have only be in full communion with the church for littler over a year. I may be asking too much too quick, but be nice to have someone to go to Mass and lunch with!
I have asked around the local parishes but they dont have a singles group. A Youth group o that is 18-25 or so is about all they have, or a teen dances, functions and retreats. There is the same for the 55+ crowd. Nothing for us in our 30s. In my area of Roanoke, Virginia there is 4 Catholic Churches each with 3-4 masses, plus a Maronite Catholic Church with 2 or 3 masses as well. Plus one that is about 30 miles down the road that is near Virginia Tech, that has a lot more activities, but it has a turn-over rate ever year or so from the University.
But as you can see I can talk and be a great communicator, I just pray God would bring me someone that can be a best friend, be there spirtually, emotionally, and give that 100%Also a little goofy at times, likes sports and Family Guy… Not too much to ask is it?
