I think we should make a thread " How God can make annoying traits in our significant other into a blessing"
Good idea xD we cant love unconditionally if we have a bunch of conditions that need to be met do you think that Jesus was like "I'm not gonna love you unless your perfect you sinners over there im good on yall" nah he was like ima love you regardless and its your choice to reciprocate it.

I think it's kinda weird making a bunch of deal breakers when God made marriage to make us more Christ like so that we can love people even though they have characteristics or habits that we hate lol. I mean standards should exist but this just seems like we are just trying to find someone who we can love easily because they don't have any real problems we haven't gotten used to dealing with, at least that's what i think i could totally be wrong cx
true, but since the humans participating in this union has their own baggages, history, circumstances, weaknesses, strengths, etc, the "path" towards "Christ-like" becomes very unique for each individual. thus, it also takes another unique individual to fit the "jigsaw puzzle" that we are as individuals. this is where our "criteria" came from.
even "shallow" criteria that most people "judge" or frown upon like he must be muscular, at least 7 feet tall, her skin must be white and smooth, unblemished, or be curvaceous with cup D, etc, that's also the unique qualities that must be addressed.

many people believe that these "shallow" qualities as sinful and ignore these completely thinking that these will go away. truth is, it's not gonna go away, and instead becomes an opening for satan to tempt you. if you address all the criteria, including the "shallow" ones before getting married, choosing the one that will make you happy, no matter how "shallow" the criteria is, you have covered your openings, and satan would have that much more difficult time to successfully tempt you.

Or what do you think about this idea: "Things you hate about yourself that I will love!"

Ok first off idk why you would want a D cup js., second no its not im not saying its sinful at all it's not i don't think but it is selfish and i get what you're saying but i think it's incorrect we need someone to feel those spaces for us specifically yes but only in the areas we have to have them in because the Lord wont give us more then we handle. But we need them to fir in those areas where we disagree with their life when it comes to things like hobbies or whatevs because it sanctifies us. And God will make you love that person that's the point he will give you someone who YOU WILL love butt they are gonna fail in the areas you most wanted them to be good in so you learn to love people regardless of their circumstances or whatevs. Now everything won't suck to you i want to stress that you're gonna be attracted to them somehow he will make them for you but dont have "deal breakers" other then Christian yea prefering a D cup is ok or whatevs (if you like that for some reason) ,please dont get mad at me im just joking i dont want to get death threats because i dont like D cups women are dangerous, but you have to understand most of that stuff is simply just selfish and God doesn't want you to be that way and that includes me there are thing's that i want and don't want in a wife im just not expecting her to reaxh all of my expectations because that's not how God does things and im prepared to deal with things i disagree with so I'm not gonna put my standards OVER 9000! Nah im gonna have some preferences and she has to be Christian because not getting with anyone because they dont have the biggest bust is just stupid lol (or the smallest whatever you like ig, maybe cutting boards are your thing).

no, I did not mean I want the D cup, it's just an example of the "shallow" criteria that I'm sure many guys have. and maybe it's E or F? not sure, just randomly picked an alphabet for the cup, hahaha. and I'm also not saying that you yourself think it's sinful. what I said in my post was many people find it sinful, not you specifically.
you're saying it's selfish? absolutely. we're dealing with humans here. at the end of the day, every human is selfish. I'll even argue that God is selfish, right? the criteria to enter HIS kingdom is this and that and some of those. but..but..but.. how about if it's like this, surely there's some room for negotiation....NO, MY kingdom, MY rules......well, you get the idea.
what I believe how it works is God will make you meet many people, you decide whom you want. lets say you meet person A, but, say she's B cup (hahaha, again, just an example), now, you have to know your own self, is this just a "oh, whatever" miss on your criteria, or do you think it's enough to annoy you that it's possible it will make you "regret" choosing her. if it's the latter, better pass her and wait for the next one. but the key here is, if you reject, it's not you're gonna be alone forever, but you'll need to wait longer. so, whether it's a deal breaker or not, you'll need to ask yourself.
as for me, the deal breaker is not virgin anymore (other than not a christian). D cup would be nice though...:p

No you dont go higher xD why are you raising cups but no im not saying you were referring to me im just replying to what you said and no God is not selfish he is just perfect and can't be around unrighteousness because he is so holy and he gives us himself because he is the best gift he can give please do not call him selfish. And yea i get that but what im saying is mareiage isn't about getying what you want or being happy that is a nice bonus at times but its meant for sanctification we are supposed to deal with things we don't like and love them through it even if their flat as a board and its annoying die to self and deal with is xD just to run with your example but yes there are things the Lord will give you to help you in your walk like similar to how sex is supposed to help with temptation. So yes God will give you things you want but im saying dont expect that just go on about your life and whatever the Lord brings you take it with thanksgiving. And you must like waterbeds

I would not to be concerned about that if I were you. Trust me, even if you checked off every box on your list, there will still be enough troubles for God to mold you through marriage.

The Bible says “outside are the dogs”. I believe animals should not live inside. I’ve experienced from other people’s pets- fleas, hair everywhere, druel, muddy paw prints, poop, pee, worms, vomit, bites, scratched and torn furniture, and watched them spend hundreds of dollars on shots, pet food, etc. and them treating them like they are more important than human beings. I seriously will not live like that. I will also not put up with smoke, drunkenness, easily angered, abusive, loud music, or eating raw / undercooked meat.



When I get my own place, I'm getting a cat so hope many girls are cap lady's

I could say some things that would turn me off about a woman, but I realized I definitely have some serious faults myself. Won't go into details, but she would need to have some pretty low standards to want to be with me.

This is Meghan Markle. The woman who's marrying Prince Harry. She was one of the suitcase girls on the game show "Deal or No Deal" hosted by Howie Mandell...

....so it looks like its definitely a "DEAL!" for Harry! :rolleyes:

I don’t know what your deltas may be, but if you could guarantee exclusivity, it would be very attractive to women. That is something that would boost your desirability, if you are not exclusive in your affections already. Very few women desire to be one of many.

The ones who aren't, can't nag you to death.


The ones who aren't breathing ARE quieter.

But they also aren't much fun to take to Christmas parties.
