GREAT SEXPECTATIONS: I want to find a husband so should I church hop in my city to look for someone?

In our fortnightly column ‘Great Sexpectations’ we answer your questions on sex, faith and intimacy. Drop us an email on womanalive@premier.org.uk and ask us anything. Here, Dr Kathrine McAleese answers someone who wants to know if visiting new churches is an acceptable way to find a husband.

Dear Woman Alive,

I grew up in a Christian family and have gone to the same church, pretty much since I was born. I know everyone here and I went to university and got a great job in the same city, so have just stayed at my family church. I am in my late twenties, and the problem is, there are no men my age there.

I live in a big city with quite a few churches, and honestly, I am tempted to try different churches with more young people, until I find someone that I am attracted to… Do you think it is okay to church hop if you are a single woman looking for a Christian partner?
