I was reading these threads this morning and thinking that I'd loved three "perfect" men in my life. One went away to college when I was far too young to feel that strongly about someone, one died and one is a counterterrorism expert who will forever be off saving the world somewhere I can't pronounce. In reflection, they weren't really perfect. It's just that I loved them so much that even their flaws made me smile. :)

I have to figure that, in a world just shy of 7 billion people, odds are there are more than three, right? :)

Oops..time to get ready for church!

I honestly have no clue if God has that "Perfect" someone for me. I have yet to meet him, or if I did, God has not revealed it to me.

God knows what He is doing. My job is to carry out what He puts in front of me to do, as He puts it in front of me. I would like that to include a marriage, but I leave that in His hands. He will put in in front of me, IF and WHEN He sees fit.

My definition of "perfect" has changed many times over years. And I think that within those definitions, I could have met the right one. Who I needed in my 20's is much different than who I need now.

I also know at my age, I don't have to look as hard as I did in my early 20's.

I am perfectly happy by myself. If God desires me to be single, I am perfectly happy with that. However, if he puts a woman in my path (that I'll probably stumble over) and tells me so, then yes, she'll be the one for me. Am I actively searching? No. Am I okay without? Yes.

I don't believe there is only one person meant for one person. There are many people who could be the one for each person. If there were truly only one perfect for each, then there would be a whole lot less people in relationships, marriages, with kids, etc. Like Jullianna said, I think one big reason relationships truly work is because people overlook the fact that their other has flaws/quirks, rather than trying to stop the flaws/quirks that the other has in the first place.

I think a mixture of 1 and 9, yes there is a perfect person out there that I can find, yet God will bring them into my life. But as for being 'perfect' thats a different ball game.. the older I have got, the more I have realized that we are all flawed individuals saved by God's grace, so theres no perfection except in Christ. However, If Christ can over look our flaws (thankfully so), then we should be able to look past others flaws (as Julianna has said), but admire the grace they have been given by God and the gift from God they are in your life. It is covenantal relational love! not the worlds view of wimsical love.

I joke a lot about looking for my perfect man and what he will look like and act like. It has actually become a big joke with all of my friends because they never know what I will come up with next. Especially since all of them are married now and they have begun to do the whole "now we need to find Sarah a man so she can be just like the rest of us" business. However, in truth I am not really looking for him. I know that in God's timing we will meet.

The following is my current description of the kind of guy I am looking for that I let my friends know to look out for me .

Wanted: One Real Mountain Man

Here is the description of the kind of Mountain Man that I am looking for.

He must live on a gigantic mountain (I ain't settling for some little hill).
He must own a decent cabin/house on said mountain (again I said decent not some little dinky coal miners shack that only has one room in the entire building).
He must have a job that will provide us with food (I refuse to skin any animals or play in any part of cutting an animal apart. If he wants fresh deer meat (or any other fresh meat) he must do all the nasty work by himself.) Remember I have the tendency to pass out at the sight of blood.
Oh and he must treat me like the princes that my name implies that I am.

Now to the fun of his physical attributes that he must possess.

He must be a giant of a man with a real burly build. (I ain’t settling for some scrawny wimp of a man.)
He can be a hairy man as long as I have physical proof (for example a picture) verifying that he is a gorgeous hunk of a man.
His eyes must be blue or green or brown (ah who am I kidding I don’t really care what color his eyes are as long as they are fabulous to look at and that I am the only one he ever looks at).
His smile must be to die for.
His hands must be real working mans kind of hands.
His voice must be deep and have a deep hearty kind of laugh.
Did I mention that he must be tall? Well he must be. I want to feel secure when I stand beside him.
He must be a fine looking man (but completely unaware that everywhere he goes a woman’s eyes are always following him)
He can be a cowboy kind of mountain man (as long as he looks good in his jeans).
OH and wearing flannel shirts are ok as long as that is not the only kind of shirts that he owns (unless he looks amazing in them).

Yes, especially since none of the guys around where I live fit that description. Thus I don't have to fear being set up on some blind date or being blindsided when my friends try to play match maker. Like I said it was a joke I used to help get my friends off my back for a little while.

They woulnd't let me send Rambo FedEx because of the arsenal that he insisted came with him. Therefore, I am sending him on a bus.
