“What can I do to be a righteous influence on those I date?” – For the Strength of Youth

Ask yourself the above question. Use it to have a happy night tonight if you go on a date and on any other date that you may go on.

“Dating is fun! Dating is an opportunity for you to develop and expand your friendships with [the other gender]. Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles gave a simple and meaningful definition of a friend: “Friends are people who make it easier to live the gospel of Jesus Christ.” Date [those] who make you want to be a better person. “Be your best self” so you can be a good influence to those you date. Become the kind of person you would like to date.” – Advice to Young Women on Dating by the Young Women General Presidency
