FL and TX are good states. HI is a very left-wing state. CA's become a "progressive" wasteland, and that power structure keeps getting landslide victories. They like the insanity and "security" of extreme government, I guess because that's not fascist. Or something.
sounds like they went apostate and Gods given them over to reprobate minds

Still praying for the next great awakening, nationwide. Occasionally, I pray for our western allies (your country, England, Australia, and for spiritual reinforcement for South Korea).

I am 38. I married a woman older than me, when I was younger 20-30 I always dated girls in their 30s. Never got along with the brats my age. My older wife divorced me. I thought that older men were with young women because they had money and a yacht.

Then my wife leaves me at 31 and I start doing the single thing after a 7 year relationship. I started getting a lot of attention from young attractive women. And i just got more every year. Not all men get attention from younger women but I fit women's criteria generally, tall muscular fit have my life together. I am like their limited chance at an older guy like that and they shoot their shot. Younger women Cap about this so not to blow their cover to men their age who most of them will end up with.

I have girls half my age and 1/3my size who would love to date me. Pretty with wonderful personalities. Young men are unproven its not their fault but they flat out couldn't compete with me on a neutral playing field. Even guys who are studs. Nobody told me this and it wasn't my plan.

Some on line post I read called guys like me Silverbacks. He was saying how his 55yo boss picked up a 24yo hot girl and she ignored the op. If I wasn't Christian I could easily date girls in their early 20s when I am 55. But I want kids and not interested in waiting that long to prove a point.
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
When you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror
Cause I get better lookin' each day
To know me is to love me
I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord, it's hard to be humble
But I'm doin' the best that I can

I used to have a girlfriend
But I guess she just couldn't compete
With all of these love-starved women
Who keep clamoring at my feet
Well I could probably find me another
But I guess they're all in awe of me
Who cares? I never get lonesome
Cause I treasure my own company

Well, Putin looks tremendous for his age. I mean come on, do many 70 year old gentlemen have his physique?
He is a very good choice to date with.

And, he's been known to score 6 goals in a hockey game.

Putin has a good physique??
He would not be a good candidate as he is evil for many reasons. Having said that he is also quite accurate on many of the things he stated about the western world. The only problem is just as bad o_Oo_O

Looking at it through the lens of God all the players are where they need be for time, there is a tremendous outpouring of Holy Spirit being poured out all over the world, right now, in this moment in time and it seems easily accessed by staying in worship, praise and gratitude.:)(y):unsure::coffee:

Old men and playboy girl bunnies...perfect match...for pagans.

Otherwise I dont really see it working out for christian believers. Unless you are a geriatric nurse maybe? There are probably rules about not dating your patients.

My rule is you have to date your birthday twin so it narrows it right down. But at least you both have the same birthday.

How does physique qualify someone for courtship??

The lost should court the lost and the saved should court the saved, a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.

That's why pastors don't do interdenominational marriages.

I believe that is why God doesn't do denominations, we each must come to Him on our own.:)(y):unsure::coffee:

I once upon a time was stationed in Pensacola. The maps as well as the mailing address proclaimed that I was in Florida. However, according to the locals that was not true. I was actually in Pensacola, LA or Pensacola, Lower Alabama..........LOL
