Purposeful Dating Guide

What is the goal of dating? Should every date be focused on marriage? How do we learn about dating?

From finding a person who shares your values and getting past the first date to staying in a relationship, you may be struggling to find a spouse. And the truth is, you’re not alone.

These questions often come up for Catholic daters of any age. That is why the CatholicMatch Institute has put together a guide to Purposeful Dating. In short, purposeful dating means to date with the vocation of marriage in mind.
