My dream mate would be someone who loves God more than anything and who is not afraid to do all that he can for Him.
Someone who isn't ashamed to lift his hands during worship or to take the blame for someone else.
Someone who'll explain to me what all those little x's and o's mean in football.
Someone who'll let me read to him.
Someone who'll sing to me.
Someone who'll bring me flowers just because.
Someone who values integrity.
Someone who'll let me watch my show on the big t.v., and watch his on the little one.
Someone who'll understand my love for apple juice and mashed potatoes.
Someone I can cook for and enjoy doing it.
Someone who'll go on long walks with me, and let me talk about nothing in particular.
Someone I can go shopping with.
Someone I can to the library with.
Someone who'll let me have the fluffier pillow.
Someone who will know just the right thing to say when I'm feeling down.
Someone who'll pray with me and for me.
Someone who'll wait for me as I wait for him.
Someone I can love, and who'll love me in return.

Ahhhhh...... Mr. Right for me your Ms. Right for you is waiting.

You know I should print this and when God brings us together show him all things he has to learn to do before we wed. Just kidding.

Well, my dream mate would be someone who I can talk to and I don't just mean talking, I mean deep thoughs a person who can make me think and see deeper into myself. As of right now, I can only think of one person who can do that and I know at this time nothing is going to happen and we have talked about it and how we want to be closer to God before anything was to happen. The person who is my dream mate would love God more then she loves me. wouldn't mind going to coffee shops and hanging on the beach, watching movies until we fall asleep and waking up in the morrning to pray and go for a walk to watch the sunrise.

My dream mate would be someone that I feel totally and completely comfortable with. I would want him to have emotional baggage that matches mine. He would be a really (and I mean really) good and moral person. He would be someone that I could see myself creating a life with. Someone that I 'click' with. Someone that would be a wonderful father. The soccer coach type of father, you know? He would he my best friend.

I'm so excited for the future! :pray:

Why make a long list when God's list probably far surpasses mine? When I met my boyfriend, I had asked God to bring a Godly man into my life whom I could date. He did just that, but not ONLY that he brought me a man with so many of the characteristics that I need and want! So, instead of dreaming about "mr. perfect" I am just letting God lead me and bring the man for me into my life. :) I am sure God has someone awesome planned and limiting myself to imagine only certain things about that person may cause me to miss them completely!! Don't limit yourself!

Oh, and also, I forgot to add this...but, I have learned that all those little things about a person aren't the most important. You have to find someone with the same values, beliefs, goals in life, attitude towards life, otherwise it's not going to work, and him bringing you all the flowers in the world won't amount to a hill of beans!

Living4Him,

Sometimes the small things can make a difference. It depends on what's important to you. If there's a habit or aspect of your boyfriend that you know about now that you'd like to change, think carefully! What if he never changes? Will you be disappointed? Maybe you understand that he won't change the way you might like. Can you honestly deal with that?

Just some pragmatic questions to ask.

Enslow

I just meant that alot of times women dream about romance and getting gifts, flowers, etc. Which is okay, but we also have to realize that that's not the most important thing and that the man you marry may or may not share the same way of showing affection you do. You may like receiving gifts, while he values quality time. So you can't discount something he does for you and call it unromantic just because it doesn't fit your "standards" for romance. I don't know if that makes sense, but I think it does. Communication is also important in this area, if he has no clue, give him some hints and help him out a little! :)

So be it! Oh well, I think guys can be romantic on their own. Maybe they won't think of something spectacular, but maybe they'll think of something that's still romantic, at least to you and maybe only you :)

Bleh...not in a romance kind of mood though..my boyfriend won't talk to me right now, so I'm feeling more hurt than giddy and romantic

i would like a guy who loves God first above anything and everyone and who God wants me to be with first of all,everything else is secondary i guess...but my list goes like this!-i'd like him to be compassionate,caring,kind,humble,affectionate,bold,friendly,confident,
cheerful,with a beautiful smile and big brown eyes,i;d want him to be open to the idea of adopting kids too,and be a great father to our kids,he'd have to respect me and also be the head of the house and be assertive yet gentle also,id want him to be protective of me as well.thats all i can think of 4 now!

Well, me and my friends have made a list of our dream mate as well. What we did is we listed 30 to 50 characteristics. Then Narrowed it down to 20...then narrowed it down to non-negotiable 10. And then, narrowed it down to non-negotiable 5.

So here's my non-negotiable 5:
1. Loves God above all
2. Great sense of humor/witty
3. Intelligent or just smart enough for me :)
4. More spiritually mature and stable than I am
5. Loves me!!! (for all I am)

Believe me...the rest of my things are full of mushy and physical things as well but I think it is best that I am clear with my non-negotiable 5. That way, I could meet him and be more than happy to find out he has the rest of my list! (I am very optimistic :p ) If not, at least I had my non-negotiables satisfied! And I would be jumping and praising God just for that! :clap:
