So last spring I was charged up about not having a list or criteria so to speak that I look to when choosing someone to date. Then recently, I was told that I should at least have something so I know for sure what I don't want. Or when I make a mistake I could go back and say, "oh yeah, that's why it was on the list!" In any case I have succumb to the pressure and decided to make a list.
1. Visibly puts God first - now, I added visibly because EVERYONE says they believe in God and that he is the head of their life but we can't always see it. I don't want to have to ask my ideal mate how important God is to him, I want to be able to detect it based on his actions.
2. Has obtainable goals and a plan to accomplish them - Though I constantly keep my head in the clouds my feet are firmly planted on the ground. I think the same should go for him.
3. Is fun to be around - In my world laughter is vital for survival.
4. Loves me as much as I love him - I have very high expectations concerning how people should treat the people they love. If you share those expectations we'll be fine!

You have to ask people about their beliefs. He could be putting God first, but it may be different than what you are accustomed to. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteGood first blog!
Ok I fixed it!
ReplyDeleteOh, good point LeRon. I was dating a guy and we prayed before every meal. To my knowledge he wasn't praying to who I was! Uh, oh that is a problem, must move around.
