    This thread made me puke in my mouth a little.

    All of his posts are puke-worthy. At least that helps with weight-loss!

    Aww, c'mon!

    I mean, a little much, yes...but I think he's sincere...which goes a long way. I mean, its better than half the super players on this site lol.



    awwww someone has a crush

    Seriously?

    You guys are being pretty mean. He asked everyone for their general opinion, not that he wanted to play match.com with each of you. He's actually a nice guy. I'm the farthest thing from Christian, I don't even believe in religion... and I'm married. He's never been disrespectful toward me or anything, he's just making conversation. Here's an idea: if you don't like the thread, don't participate. He wasn't trying to hurt anyone or be offensive. Geeeesshhhhhhh.

    Well, the OP #1 kinda shoots me down.... so, moving on to the "no gag reflex"... :wink:

    Making lists is all well and good, until you meet THE ONE, and throw your list away. :love:

    I married my best friend. It was the best decision I ever made...


    ... and he likes that I have NGR... :wink:

    Cris, surely you've figured out by now that most women are not looking for sincerity. They're looking for jackassery. If they actually had a decent man, what would they whine to all their friends about?

    Okay, came in on the end of the thread and saw the insults being flung, and went back and read the whole thing, and not even sure why some posters took a mean turn? I didn't see anything insulting, and I agree with the last poster I quoted, the OP seemed sincere...so why the mean responses? smiley-think005.gif

    I still disagree. "most" is way too much of a generalization. However at 22, most of your friends may go for the *kitten*. They grow out of it.

    And sincerity is great, it doesn't have to be cloying

    I actually feel for the OP here!.....People are so tainted sometimes.....For goodness sake....give him a break! Hope the OP is genuine unlike some out there.

    At least he's not sending numerous messages to loads of women on here. All I will say is, there some VERY UPFRONT players on here who just want the attention of as many women as possible.....

    OP - Good luck in finding that perfect someone. :-)

    incredible flexibility and a twin would be nice as well.

    Semper Fi MrB ;) I even have the blue ID card to prove it.

    My personal trainer asked how flexible my hamstrings were yesterday in the middle of the testosterone-crowded weight room. I promptly bent over, green-silky-catch-me-F-me-PT-shorts and all and put my palms FLAT on the deck... with my fingertips touching my toes of my tennis-shoes and wrists facing forward. Does that count?

    As for the twin, well... I think you'll have enough fun handing just one of me, but I'm sure we can arrange some modifications in the bedroom involving mirrors that may give you the desired effect; perhaps a POV-style home movie playing on a large plasma if you're not camera-shy. Plus I have some new twins you could play with...

    It's a shame you don't have a profile on Ashley-Madison... Oh, wait... I've said too much :( *patiently drums fingers waiting for the witch-burning-happy-MFPvillagers-with-pitchforks* J/K!!! <3 That would disqualify me on the "commitment" part anyway, lol.

    Criteria for a spouse

    1. Must be a Christian.

    If he doesn't pass the first criteria there is no number 2, 3, 4 etc. :noway:

    I know exactly what I want but I have been told that such a man does not exist. :grumble:

    Actually.....just some one willing to stick it out. My wife and I couldn't be more different on EVERYTHING. But some how it works. But not without work. If there is one thing I know about human beings, very few of us actually know what we want. So lists are great and all, but don't disqaulify what could be the love of your life just because she's not into country music or cowboys.

    agree. must be willing to work on things. ppl expect relationships to be easy and when they dont they just give up and break up or get a divorce. its not supposed to be that easy or it wud be boring, wudnt it?

    Creativity, a love of reading, a love of learning are three really good qualities I would look for. Less important would be similar political (left-wing) views or religious views (atheist, agnostic or secular), although someone being right-wing (i.e, a conservative or further to the left) or moderately religious (i.e., no fundamentalists) would not stop me from having a relationship with them if such a relationship existed.
