Today I was working on a presentation at one of those coffee shops that you speak in hushed tones while you are working...if you speak at all.
Except, for this swanky couple sitting on the couch deeply gazing into each other's eyes. They had a Bible out and were pouring over it. And talking very loudly. So of course I listened in. It wasn't long before I realized that the guy, who seemed to be a Christian, was participating in the age old ritual of evang-a-dating. In a somewhat sultry voice he was reading the scripture to his lady friend, and sharing with her who Jesus is. All the while making himself as desirable and flirtatious as possible.
It made me want to puke on my boots.

Nooooooo!
I'm right there with you. Fortunately I had an older male mentor in high school explain it to me in a way my immature brain could get (so pretty much the same explanation would work today, if necessary). He said those relationships don't work because even if they do come to know the LORD, they have to leave you eventually. That's how mentor-student relationships work.
You know, that and all that Scripture and common sense has to say...
