2) Is Jesus the most important relationship to the person I'm dating (with or without me)?
3) What does their relationship with Jesus look like?
4) Am I lowering God's standards to make this relationship work?
5) Will they make it easier or harder for me to love Jesus?
6) Do my friends or family notice any red flags?
7) Am I going above and beyond to honor my parents and their parents?
8) Have I asked for Godly input from someone older than me?
9) Am I displaying the Gospel through purity?
10) Am I surrendered to God's timing or trying to rush things?
