Intentional Dating

Updated: May 4

At Destiny Matchmaking, we believe in dating safely with purpose. Whether you're new to dating or returning after years away, one thing remains clear: your time, health, emotional and financial well-being are worth protecting. Dating can be a beautiful journey of discovery—but only if it’s approached with clarity, honesty, and self-respect.


The Power of Safe and Intentional Dating

At Destiny Matchmaking, we encourage singles to embrace the dating journey fully—but to do so with clarity, confidence, and strong personal boundaries. If you're serious about finding a life partner, there's nothing wrong with dating multiple people as part of your search. In fact, dating widely—and doing so safely—can help you discern what you truly value in a relationship. However, if marriage is your goal, it's essential that you clearly communicate your intentions and establish respectful boundaries from the first interaction.


Let every person you date know that you are seeking a committed life partner, and until that person is found, you are not engaging in physical relationships. This is not about playing games or being difficult—this is about protecting your health, emotional and financial well-being, and future.


There are a lot of wonderful people in the world. But let’s be honest—there are also opportunists, damaged souls who have yet to recover, and, unfortunately, some people who are simply not trustworthy. If your “picker” is broken—perhaps due to how you were raised or past experiences—you may find yourself attracted to those who do not have your best interests at heart!


That’s why it’s crucial to lead with wisdom and to give yourself the time and space to truly observe who someone is before you allow emotional or physical bonds to form. One of the most powerful boundaries you can set is choosing to abstain from physical intimacy until a solid emotional connection, mutual values, and long-term intentions have been established.


This isn’t about judgment—it’s about protection. HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted infections still pose serious health risks today, and many people carry them without symptoms or truthful disclosure. Beyond physical health, the emotional cost of becoming intimate too soon—only to be ghosted, used, or disappointed—can leave lasting scars and affect future relationships.


When you honor your own boundaries, you invite only those who respect your standards and your self-worth. That clarity helps weed out the casual daters, the emotionally unavailable, and the ones who aren’t serious about partnership. And the right person will respect you more for standing strong in your values.


Choosing to wait for real connection and shared commitment isn’t prudish—it’s powerful! You’re not closing doors; you’re opening the right one to the right person. Remember to stay sober on your dates. Remaining clear-headed allows you to stay present, fully aware, and able to assess the other person's behavior without blurred judgment. When your mind is clear, your intuition stays sharp—and that’s one of your greatest tools in choosing the right partner!
