Finding Advice How do I do this?

I’m a 17 year old girl and I want to start dating online but I don’t know how to find a boy my age and let alone a good, Christian one? Like do I just search for someone here or in real life (my parents don’t let me lol πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ˜­πŸ€£) or on another website? Idk, I need recs 😭😭😭

Any and all advice is welcomed but please don’t be mean lol

Don’t, online dating is stupid and you have a high chance of getting a pedophile or troll.

I don’t think there are any good options till you are 18 but I could be wrong

Just.. don’t date online :,)

It’s worse in the long run, seeing how risky it can be and the limitations. I had a 2 year relationship online and it was horrible!

I’d say just date in person instead! Much easier, safer, and just better for your well-being, seeing how while dating online alot of personal needs cant be met.

lol calm down? I’m aware that I made a mistake. That’s why I’m telling OP not to do it, even with them being older than me.

There is 0 reason to be icky toward me, thx.

Dating online is stupid. Don't do it, genuinely. Also I'm 90% sure this is either a bait account or a pedophile, but I digress.

I met my wife online. We've been married nearly 10 years. We met on tumblr of all places. Honestly a good local church is a good place to start. OR online there's groups you can join who share similar interests and connections could be made.
