Should You Pursue Him First? + Men Who Aren’t Ready to Date + The Problem With “Trust Your Feelings”

from Discerning Marriage · host Theology of the Body Institute

What do you do when you keep making eye contact with someone at Mass… but he never talks to you? Should you wait for someone who “isn’t ready yet”? Can you discern marriage and religious life at the same time? And how do you know if the peace you feel in a relationship is actually from God — or just emotions?In this Q&A episode, we dive into modern Catholic dating, discernment, masculinity, red flags, vocation anxiety, spiritual clarity, pornography, confession, desire, and the very real fear of making the wrong life decision. This conversation is honest, practical, deeply personal, and full of the kind of advice most people are too afraid to say out loud.Ignite Hope Discerning Marriage Retreat InfoFr.
