You probably have no idea how this spoke to me. Wow. God is awesome. That is all I can say about that.
Believe it or not , this is how the "Holy Spirit " brought it to me ..
There are two barns in heaven ..
One full of horses trained by God .. Their names are faithful , loyal and true .. Among many other names ..Trustworthy etc..
these horses are trained by God himself .. The horses inner spirit
The other barn have horses untrained by God..
Pride , arrogance , lust, envy etc.. when choosing a barn to go into ..
If God has not prepared the horse ..any person attempting to ride these horses "will" get thrown ..
Because there are spots reserved in the spirit "ONLY" by god, "ONLY" God can fix.. Not man , God..
As ignorant as we are we think "we" can tame these horses ... Not so.. It has to be done by their own free will "with"God..

think I'll stay out if those barns and let God do His work..
I still have enough training in menu need to allow Him to do..:)

Please don't think I am picking on you here. We all must be conscious of how our own insecurities might cause us to treat others unfairly at times though. This is probably why we are to do to others as we would have them do to us; not do what we THINK they are doing to us.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. What I meant is that I'm not gonna be all lovey-dovey to someone who doesn't even like me that way. If a guy is interested in me, he will show it, and then if I'm interested, I will show my interest in turn.

What happens if he does the exact same?

Psalm 35:6
may their path be dark and slippery, with the angel of the Lord pursuing them.

That is a great question, Mark. I think too many people are worried about being the
one to put themselves out there that they may be missing out on what is right in
front of them.

If a guy expresses interest in me, and I'm not interested, I tell him. No games, no ignoring, I don't lead any one on. I'm kind about it, but firm. If he chooses to pursue me, then I will have the conversation with him again. My ex thought the way to get me back was to strongly pursue me. After 7 weeks of my ex not leaving me alone, I told him I would get my best friend's brother in law involved (as per his offer). See, Mark is a prison guard, and a very scary man. My ex never called me again.
Uhhh... what kinda girl knows prison guards?

That one, I would imagine. ^_^

I will assume he is not so interested. In my experience, if a man is interested in someone, he will try to make himself noticeable somehow. Everyone has a different tactic, but he will, in some way, make me know that he is interested.

A smart one, Max. :D I've known Mark for... let's see, he and Tina got married when I was... 15? So I've known him for about 18 years. He's also an associate pastor of their church.
