being atheist on dating apps is interesting, while i don’t mind people who are religious it’s not what i look for in a dating partner… i matched with someone and their FIRST message was “you’re as pretty as proverbs 3:15”

which is very sweet after looking it up but also if someone’s first message is going to be biblical, you would think they’d have their religion listed on their but they didn’t 😭

I get that being religious is a big part of people’s identity but it truly isn’t necessary to start out a convo with that lmao

I work at a Christian summer camp and keep getting asked to lead opening prayers and I hate doing it because it feels really disingenuous coming from someone who does not believe those prayers are going anywhere

exactly!! and it just threw me off so much too bc no where on their profile does it list their religion? you’d think if it was thattttt relevant to them it’d be mentioned somewhere 🙃

As a Christian they should def be on a Christian dating app😭 most Christians who are very in tune with their faith are NOT constantly spouting bible verses to be relatable or different and don’t typically date outside of their faith on dating apps no less😭 it’s a nice verse tho but it tells me they want to come off as nice/pure but don’t really pay attention to their faith otherwise which is so unfortunate
