You are the man. Headship is your responsibility. "And the head of the woman is the man" (1 Cor. 11:33But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. (1 Corinthians 11:3)). God expects you to take the responsibility and lead in your courtship, just as you will someday do as head of your home. "Quit ("act") you like men" (1 Cor. 16:1313Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. (1 Corinthians 16:13)).
Do you think, dear young brother, that our loving Father's answer to the earnest prayer of a sister for a Godly, responsible life's companion would be to give her someone whom she cannot trust, who wants only to have a "good time", and who has no interest in acting in purity in a romance?
We sometimes tease about how a father feels when his daughter goes out on her first date. Think for a moment how much more God is concerned about that young lady—His blood bought child—that you are taking out on a date! Again we say, be prayerful and careful.
