I am 28 yrs old and don't feel like waiting much longer. I am in marriage mode. I like to think that I would know the right man and the right time because God will clue me in. I do have some fears and issues though.
The number one thing that keeps me from getting married is the idea of settling down with someone. Like meeting a woman who goes into child-deployment mode. I don't want to be stuck with a woman who wants to throw out the anchor and push out babies.
I want to travel with someone for like a year. I want to go on missions trips. I want to live like a married missionary version of James Bond.
My second reason for not getting married is that I haven't developed the habits that a good strong Christian should have before he cements himself to another person.
My Third reason, is a fleeting one but, I'm a pretty poor dude. I know that is going to change but at the same time it is kind of a dating deterrent. Not that when I date I even really date in the first place.
I have some gold pieces of jewelry that were my mom’s and grandmother’s that mean a great deal to me, but I can only wear them for a few hours at a time. Most of my jewelry is silver. They do make some really cool titanium pieces for guys.
*sigh* You had me at "I...wait, what?" I was going to ask you to marry me, but I could never marry a guy who didn't understand the importance of shoeness.
I guess djness is right...back to work on the perfect man project.
I have a feeling its much deeper than that. I'm thinking there is some psychological connection between the aesthetics of fashionable footwear and a woman's sense of attractiveness, seductiveness or charm. Hmmmm.
Maybe we think that feet are the ugliest part of the body so we want something pretty to cover them up.
Maybe it's a Cinderella's slipper complex.
And maybe it's just me, but trading my jeans and sneakers for a dress and heels is a way of putting aside the me I have to be when I'm working for the feminine me that I'd like to show more often than some circumstances will allow.
