You will look like a sharpei dog.

I saw a girl at my church the first time I came as a visitor and was smitten. I remained that way for the next 8 years, always hooked on that one girl. She rejected me every single time I asked her out, no matter how simple the request. UNtiL I decided I deserved better than that. I was done persuing her and hoping. I put her out of my mind and decided to focus on God and my ministry for a while.

Less than a month later, my Pastor calls me aside and tell sme he has something to talk to me about. He asks me if I have ever thought of asking sister so and so out. It was that same girl I had spent 8 years being rejected by. I told him and he said that he has a feeling she had changed her mind. In fact, she had gone to him and asked for some help. I was on cloud nine suddenly. i asked her out and we immediately started dating. I finally had this woman that I had wanted to be with for so many years.

We connected like oil and water. Some of it was my fault, some of it was hers. We did not work in that way. So we broke up.

Bet you didn't think that was the direction I was going did ya?

I finally got married two years ago to my best friends little sister, a girl I never even considered dating until I spoke to her on eday on the phone about absolutely nothing of any importance. In that one conversation I felt like either God or my common sense spoke up and said "this is what you really have been wanting. A great friend who you can trust and that you know will always be there".

Be patient. I was 33 when I got married.

I'm so not worried about being married. I just want someone to spend time with that doesn't the same anatomy I have.

Randy, I don't think he's old enough to know who that is.

NAH!

She's wearing jewelry! Short bleached blond hair! Doesn't live up to the standards.

Hmmm sounds like a dangerous situation to me. Group settings are for you!!!! Enjoy, have fun, "Date" around.

I do understand a need though, but that is what a wife is for. "Leave your Mother and Cleave to your wife".

I don't have a problem with men being friends with women, but there is always that trouble on unsuspected feelings that can creep up.
