What kind of husband do you want and why?

What are his character traits and his other traits?

Are you praying for him, and has God given you any insight about him or who he is?

Just keep in mind, you get what you advertise for. I know a lot of girls who show a lot of skin and complain a lot about attracting a lot of guys they really don't want. If you try to act meek and mousy to attract guys you'll get the guys who expect you to stay meek and mousy.

It might be interesting to add to the OP, "and what aspects of your life do you think will attract the kind of guy you want?"

Guys chase the girls until one of the girls catches them. ;)

God forbid. Those poor guys.

On another note, your profile pic could use several makeovers.
Yeah....I just got a haircut and it's short....and I'm losing my beard today. Gotta get ready for the bakery health inspection.

Ideally, a man who compliments but also grounds me, meaning he will not feel insecure around me and feel like he is quietly competing with me in any facet of life. Most importantly, though he has to be a born again christian that is deeply rooted in the word of God through a prayerful, fasting, giving etc lifestyle. Anyone with less than this background will not make it past or through "courtship" (whatever that is).

Non-judgemental, down-to-earth, compassionate and respectful would be some of the topmost characteristics that would appeal to my sensivity.

Mostly, during my night time prayers and when I am in compehensive fasting that covers all areas of my life, I would release the blood of Jesus and the holy spirit upon the life-partner the lord has ordained and anointed just for me. When I am directed through a revelation from my father in Heaven, you bet I will humble myself before his majesty and then wait patiently for the divine meeting.

I guess I don't have any insight about who he is because I am not currently or actively looking. I prefer a surprise that will find me when I least expect it. It could be someone I have already met or someone totally new. I have no idea. I just love the excitement of that mindset.

Girls? :oops: Well, that aside, your question brings this song to mind:


There is none like You
No one else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity long
And find there is none like You
There is none like You
No one else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity long
And find there is none like You
There is none like You
No one else can touch my heart like You do
I could search for all eternity long
And find there is none like You
I could search for all eternity long
And find there is none like You

Love, love, love this song! The melody is just uplifting. Thanks for sharing!

1. It classically known, sort of a classic joke, that a large percentage of women will not go for the men they describe they want. = )

2. Also, women have expressed they'd never answer this question because some men would just use it to present themselves as what the woman wants.

Which is especially funny when you put the two statements together. lol

And notice too, only one woman has replied, and she didn't describe what she wants in a man... as the lyrics are Michael W Smith's praise of God.

I'm guessing my response doesn't count?? Or maybe you do not consider me a woman?? Just wondering!

Well, this really doesn't help the OP. You're content being single because no man is good enough. But, many women out these ARE looking, and he wants to know what qualities they most value in a prospective mate.

Well with a screen name of "JackieBoy" it's easy to understand their confusion.

I suppose it's that as well. Someone's acknowledgement of me or lack thereof does not define me. So I'm good!
