LOL I don't really know what to say to this. Are you playing matchmaker?
You're silly, Knight.
I don't know enough about her at this point.
Who is Sarah, BTW.
Hi! *waggles eyebrows* jkjk
It's probably his dog.I've also wondered this. I hope he tells us.

Sore from working on my form for dance.
Also, I'm roasting asparagus in the oven and I smells delish.
*shuts off the shrinker*
His post got me thinking. Who are my ride and dies? That’s obvious. Then I said to myself, what do they have in common?
I answered...loyal, outspoken, protective, fearless, and shrewd. They’re warriors. And we have a spiritual bond. I think that’s the missing link.
My greatest demonstrations of love, forgiveness, sacrifice, and generosity are in that group. Their welfare is a priority. And I love them deeply. In words, deeds, and spirit.
We click. Not an over time clicking. But from hello. Bam, it was there. Maybe that’s a guideline of sorts. The connection which doesn’t fray in spite of frailties.
Love remains. It always remains.
Most of it.
*diddles your daddle and steal a peek* Wonder what you’ve learned thus far!
I forgot to show you my masks. I’m going to get some more. I like to coordinate. You need lots of purple!

It was a far more instant connection. Sort of like the, “You had me at hello”. It was easy and effortless but as you said comes hardships as well. No relationship is perfect or void of struggle and strife.
Many people speak of Love and wanting it but lack the understanding what true unconditional love is. We have encountered jealousy, rage, lies, and the sort trying to break us. The Lord has stepped in and shown us both.
Ride or die is a phrase but it holds such meaning. There are a select few that have that place for the reasons you stated.
I love those masks! I do have one that’s purple-y glitter.
Our community, if you could call it that, is somewhat large, but widespread.If you have a large, close-knit and supportive community who are like-minded, this strategy will probably work out fine. I'm thinking sort of like the community the Orthodox Jews in New York have. But if your community is smaller, or not very cohesive, and there aren't many eligible men available, I would be very cautious about this approach. You could find that it hinders you a lot down the line if you are still single and decide you really want to get married. I used to have somewhat similar views about courting when I was your age, and also used to believe that God would provide a man in due time without me having to do much about it. But I'm 29 now and no man has appeared. However, I don't have a network of people to support this sort of strategy like you seem to. There's no judgement on my part either, though. I just feel old and jaded. lol

I asked him that once a long time ago. I don't remember his answer.
I think it’s an anime character he likes.
