That is so true! although with me, alot of people think i'm too picky. My friends will say, "he's amazing, your ridiculous to not want to be with him" etc. But I figure, I'm not the type who wants Mr. right now, I am finally content with being "picky". If that means I'm single my whole life, it doesn't matter anymore, because I don't need a marriage, kids etc to be happy. These are great things, but my life with God is so much more than enough. Now try convincing some around me why I feel that way.

anyways, had to rant a little.

I have to say I am shocked and amazed at all this! I didn't think it was possable! Guess God showed me wrong lol. I was happy to read from all the ppl about never having dated or kissed anyone and all. I am the same way. I am glad I never did thoughs things. Cause when I do it will actualy mean something! I remember asking God one day "I want a girl that never been on a date or had a kiss or anything!" lol. Now I know God has many out there like that. I thought there may be 1 or 2 in the whole world.

But I agree with everyone else. I already faced the question "If it meant being single the rest of my life would I be happy with just God?" I have answered the question. I have been ready to live without a wife. And I too was scared of the thought of a relationship. I been alone so long I been thinking "I wouldn't know what to do in a relationship." I may still not have all the answeres, but I know one thing, "The steps of a rightouse (spelling?) man are ordered of the Lord." God prepared me. And I prepared myself. I too believe I am ready. And I too am in no hurry.

I do believe though that I have a part to play in this. I believe if I truely want this I must do what I can. That does not mean date anyone. I believe in friends first. But it does mean I will be watching to see if God left a blessing along the way for me.

Well I have began to make some steps in this. I thought of personals ads but I Don't want to pay for them lol. So I am left with other options. See, God finaly opend some things to show me what my part is in this. I understand I can't just ask for a wife and she will fall in my lap lol. I have things I have to do. I am starting a phycical training set up now for when I do meet her. So I look presentable lol. And suddanly I am noticing A LOT of options of old crushes comeing back around lol.
