I used to feel bad that I was only attracted to certain types of guys but after a long chat with my mentor I came to the conclusion that there is nothing wrong in having preferences. Chemistry is important in a relationship although it is not the glue that holds it together. That's God :) I more than prefer to date a believer whole-heartedly because I have tried the other way and it just does not work for me.
But actually, I have recently given all of this to God. I rather He pick for me. All my choices have been terrible anyways.

Don't worry Raine, I'm already out the door, faster than you can say I am crazy...lol
You only got away because I extended the "craaayyyyyy" part of the word crazy. I gave you extra time to flee. 8D

Well, that's your fault for adding on to the word, but that is not why I got away, I'm just that fast, lol cheetah speed.

It's uh five-dollah word describin' a feller who's into a gal who likes usin' five-dollah words!










(Actually, that's not completely accurate, but it's not completely inaccurate. I just wanted to write something in a Southeast US accent tonight. ^_^ And I can't throw stones at Liamson, as I'm a bit of a sapiophile as well.)

I prefer them to be breathing. That's usually a huge plus.

It just gets real awkward when they stop breathing half way through your date. Needless to say, WE NEVER WENT ON THE SECOND DATE!

Oh, so the truth comes out! You prefer guys who breathe. Those are some high standards. :p

every time i see you making a joke about breathing, i'm reminded of this time when i was out with a couple friends and this guy and i were talking.

i made a sarcastic joke about scanty dating criteria, and said something like, "well, he has to be a champion breather"...

and without missing a beat, the guy i was talking to looked down, and said, "oh. well, i have asthma. but hey, i have an inhaler! does that count?"

i laughed so hard.

I don't think there is anything wrong with having a preference but a lot of people tend to compromise abit too much when it comes to choosing a partner... think it's also the matter of learning what preferences can be compromised and what can't.

He has to have a very close relationship with the Lord. He needs to be sensitive to other people, not just me, have a kind generous heart, and enjoy blessing others with his abundance. Don't much care what he looks like except for extreme obesity. I totally respect anybody who always seeks the Lord's guidance before going to other people.
