Single? Dating around? Going steady? Engaged? Married?
Wherever you are in a relationship, Friendily is your hub for more purposeful dating
Dr. John Gottman, who has been able to predict whether a couple would stay together or not with over 90% success rate, said, “Happy marriages are based on a deep friendship.” Inspired by this principle that every “I love you” begins with friendship, we decided to call ourselves Friendily. Our goal is to promote more productive dating through the recognition and avoidance of common dating pitfalls.
Dating is like a set of two-piece puzzles. When a child does a set of two piece puzzles, they will pick up a piece, see if it fits, and if it doesn’t, they put the piece down and try a new piece. They don’t cry and get upset, and they don’t get discouraged because they know that there is a match. Like a parent gives a toddler a set of two piece puzzles, God commands us to find a match. A parent would never give a child a puzzle piece that does not have a match and God does not command people to pair up and not provide you with a match. This analogy can be misleading if carried too far because there is usually only one match per piece in a set of two piece puzzles, but there is not just one match out there for you.
