Well, like I just posted in the same thread but asked of men....

It's not about there not being someone. It's about what God has for us. Or if we are Christians that's what it should be. For me, I want to be with someone, but I am staying in God's will and will not compromise that. If it's in His will it will happen and nothing can stop that. He could have it happen tomorrow even if I don't think I know any men that I could date. But if it's His will for me to be single, then that's where I want to be. I want to be in His will even if that means giving up my desires and working through that. Doesn't mean I'm always happy with it, but I am much happier in my saddest moment now, then I was when I was with someone and the relationship was not committed to God and wasn't founded on Christ.

Hmm, not sure, I'll let you know when I find one where we was! Been dating various guys for like over 1/2 a year now - think I am up to 23 guys I dated, and not one even turned to a friendship let alone anything more. Some wanted more...but really, they were not good guys! I can write a book on my bad dating experiences!

The few that were "good" we really didn't keep in contact cause there just wasn't enough common ground or enough to talk about, or I said I wasn't interested in a relationship with them, just a friendship and I never heard from them again. There was not one that I could really see myself in a relationship with, even as time went on and they grew on me. Just didn't click, I guess???

most girls dont like my long hair I suppose. I run around barefoot most the time...sandals in winter. Im a weirdo.
Mmm... that sounds unlikely - the guys I know with long hair and odd fashion sense are attractive enough in their way - except it's a good idea to either keep the hair neat or do full out dreadlocks, because otherwise it's just messy. There are still hippie girls... just the Christian ones go more for the aesthetic and environmental side of things, and not so much for free love. But that does sound kinda cold on the feet, and there's glass and stuff in the streets sometimes...

Come to think of it, I know quite a few. What type would you like?

You know, they should make a vending machine. Would you like a lo-carb Mr. Good-Man Bar, or one with caramel inside? Would you like one who's a little sarcastic? Those ones are in the orange bag and they are spicy and crunchy. Or would you like one that's sweet? You'll find Mr. Good-Man Soft-n-Sweet Cookies on the bottom row! Or "curiously strong" Altoid Atta-boy Good-Man Mints!

Maybe I know too many good men, and I'm hogging them all to myself. :flatt:

Well, I had a girl the other day said she loved my hair, too bad she was 16 haha.

Oh, dont get me wrong, I am an environmentalist and hold a minor in environmental sciences. Dreadlocks are nasty. Free love is kinda weird, I advocate peace though.

Most people think my views and opinions are a little "extreme" and I have a rather twisted sence of humour. Most things Christians find offensive, I dont really. Some people need to lighten up a little.
