It all depends on the two people, but in my opinion, A Christian doesn't date as the word date in my eyes means either the fruit, or going round 'trying' everyone who slightly intresets you.
I think that before you go looking for someone, you should finish your exams and possibly your higher-education, then get settled down into a job. Im not saying tht if you meet someone along the way that you shouldnt get to know them, but courting is a better way to go about things. Where you and the other person go to each others houses and get to know the other families.

But in answer to the original question, I think any age after maturity is fine.

Considering christians 'date' marriage in mind, not like most people nowadays, you should be old anough to marry the person, if you find you two are suitable for each other. Or at least can get married soon, if not just yet.
Of course, if you are ready to wait to get to know each other closer, any age can be fine. Person has to know their own limits before making such a decisions. As well as keep in touch with God, praying for right person and patience.

I think that's up to you. How much do you trust yourself? It's different for every person. However, don't bother with a person you wouldn't marry. That just causes heartbreak. I've personally made a covenant between me and God - I won't date until I'm 18, because I wouldn't dream of getting married until I at least finish college. Besides, God will send the right guy along when He does, and that guy, if he loves my, will be willing to wait. Love should be able to withstand time.

I believe dating under 16 is a waste of time but if youre older there is a chance that the guy you like could be the 'one'. Im not saying to try every guy you like because thats stupid. The way I see it is if you both put God first there's nothing wrong with dating. You have to make sure the guy you date will ALWAYS put God first in his life no matter what. You have to believe the same thing and you HAVE to be able to talk to him about God and your faith. As long as you do that I see nothing wrong with dating while youre still in high school but not under 16. Thats just too young in my eyes.

it depends, i would say to date until at least you are 14 years old. When i date, i date to find my future husband.

I think people should stop looking for love and let love find them. If something naturally clicks people should be dating. but only if fireworks are going off.

It's all opinion, really.

Personally, I think that dating under 16 is totally pointless, because I can guarantee it that you will not be with that person for the rest of your life.

i have this whole theory on dating. but i dont really want to get into that b/c it only really makes sense to me. but basically your maturity level his maturity level and the relationship u have in god.

I definetly think dating under 16 is pointless. The biggest questions are, do you want to risk a friendship. Most of the differences between dating and being friends are things you shouldn't be doing anyway.

Personally, lol, I dont see the point in children dating. But if you want to court someone, well go right ahead in my opinion. But im going to say don't you sin. Dont be tempted. Otherwise I dont think its that big a deal.

I just told God I will wait for the right guy the Lord sends my way. He dont want me to be alone forever, so He has someone for me. Im just waiting. I dont rush into anything.
