My favorite time was when he advised the guys to pick out a romance movie for the date. Because, ya' know,
all women like romance movies
smh lol
It's always a Catch 22 when we get people like that.
On one hand, they sure do liven things up! On the other hand, they sure do disregard anything we have to say and treat us all like we're in need of their universal, ever-so-important, life-changing sermons.
I was thinking about this the other day.
For some reason, singles, especially in the church, are always seen as the "Group That Must Be Universally Preached To."
I don't see people going into Family and telling all the married people how to live.
Nope, that special treatment is always reserved for us singles, who, over the years, have seen countless numbers of Self-Appointed Preachers and Prophets come and go, all believing they are the Mouthpieces of God to Curb (what they assume are) Us Sin-Loving Singles.
My issues with Steve (lol, I guess I'm in a venting kind of mood) were:
1. He claimed to have the end-all, be all answer to finding true love and a fairytale marriage -- but he hadn't achieved that for himself. He had at least one child he would mention, and when I asked what happened with the mother, he refused to answer.
Now of course I understand everyone has situations in their life that doesn't work out. But how can you sell your wares as being fool-proof -- when you haven't achieved them yourself?
2. At the same time that he was preaching a honeymoon marriage, he bragged about how many phone numbers he could collect and cut the rest of us down for being losers because we weren't doing the same.
Um, there's a name for that. The polite word would be "player"; the less polite words, we all know and don't have to spell out.
And I had to wonder if his love of collecting women's phone numbers had anything to do with the demise of his relationship with his child's mother, but he wasn't taking any questions.
3. He boasted about putting a lot of us on Ignore, meaning, he couldn't see what was going on in his own threads -- but that wouldn't stop him from coming in and blasting people.
There was one situation in particular -- he must have had me on Ignore (which I welcome for those who don't like my posts,) but then he completely insulted the friend I was talking to in the thread because he couldn't see the whole conversation -- taking everything out of context.
This is where I draw the line.
Sure, come on in and throw your ego around as much as you want -- we could use the entertainment!
But just don't insult the people here we've come to respect over time while you're at it, or yes, I'm going to push back.
Hard.
-- assumedly, for the entertainment.
