I couldn't figure out how to use a smiley to clarify I was joking, but apparently, you knew I was. Cool.
yep, lol you can type a smiley with a colon ':' or a semi-colon ';' and half of an open parenthesis ')' :) ;)

Thanks. I was on my cell, and I could barely see the screen. Somebody stepped on it and cracked it.

I thought they were all 'sugar and spice, and everything nice-with candy & cookies & stuff'!
LOL :ROFL:

That was an interesting assumption if you are referring to ALL ladies...but hey, that's the world we live in....:cautious:

For me, I’d want a man who provides with me in partnership spiritually before emotionally/mentally/financially. Now the reason I mention a spiritual provider first is because, if our faith and belief in according with what the Word says is aligned in our relationship with one another, then the rest of the other things (security, finance etc) should fall into place.

I would love if he could spiritually provide and lead me and our family the necessary insight and ways of what it is truly to have a Christ-centred relationship.

This also has to be accountable by the wife as well, in that the wife shouldn’t heavily rely on him but be it more of a partnership, should we be married, and knowing that he is still the head of the family.

I hope this makes sense cos I’m typing this at midnight lol.

For most, financial provision that’s sufficient to live comfortably on one income without compromising their lifestyle or interests.
