Hey! Your standards are not too high. I think you just need to meet more men in person and stop wasting time texting. Hop on a video call on CatholicMatch or SacredSpark then meet for a lowkey date within 2 weeks of matching The Book "Pretty Good Catholic" has great practical steps about this and was published in 2025? You need to meet in person asap instead of making pen pals. Also give guys a chance of they're devout Catholic and Not your Typical physical type. Pretty Good Catholic book was so helpful. My Women's Group read it and all of us started dating devout Catholic men within 6 months of finishing
Sure. If that is the case you have never been in a relationship. Start slow! The best things are never rushed. Also dont rush to kiss either. It is good practice to wait to kiss or get cuddly until you are in an Official relationship. Some men (and women) will try and get you into a "chaste-ish" Friends with Benefits situation, yes even if theyre Catholic and practicing. My boyfriend last year taught me the beauty of waiting to kiss. We built up so much organic chemistry and emotional and spiritual connection. YES we were super attracted to each other, but we expressed that in different ways. We did not kiss for the first 6 months, but man his forehead kisses made me feel WAY more loved than any smooch ever, because I knew he loved me for me && we genuinely became best friends in our relationship. Anyway there is great practical advice for daring as a Catholic. I love a couple of Lila Rose Podcasts, but also Pretty Good Catholic book was SO GOOD and its new.
