Read a quote today online from a single gal who is 36 yrs old (not a Christian). She said:

"There are different parts of us that will desire different men; some we desire with our hearts, some with our minds, some with our bodies. A great deal of the time, however, at least one of those other parts of us is saying "No way. Not going to happen."

I know what she means. There are times when I can have a great discussion with a guy, and yet realize he's an insensitive brute. There are times I think a guy is sweet and kind, and yet he's completely unattractive. There are times when I'll admit a guy is good looking, but he doesn't seem to have a brain inside his head.

And that's not even approaching the faith issues and belief systems.

I guess it's when all of those things come together that you realize there is one incredibly special man in front of you.

Just thinking out loud... or something.

:beret:
"Going somewhere means leaving somewhere. Choosing something means choosing against other things. Gaining something means losing something else. And between the old and new--the 'was' and the 'not yet'--there exists only one thing: a very frightening journey called faith."
--taken from the book Coming Up For Air

The most dangerous guys are the ones who are good looking, well groomed, and sensitive.... they usually end up gay.

P.S. Envelope is a meanie!!!

lol Sharon I haven't actually met Vince

I'm not even what one would typically call picky but really when I think about it I've seen very few that did any real justice to their gender and would inspire me to entertain the thought of spending my life with one

On behalf of all men everywhere, "OUCH!"

Oh well, Amelia Bedelia wouldn't like me anyway. I am not scruffy.

When I see women bash men, I'm usually torn between remaining a courteous gentleman and telling them how the cow ate the cabbage.

I wasn't really serious about the evil part, but the guy is a mouthy, swearbox junkie. I like the rest of the show/characters. If he wasn't in it, it would be good. Give me other doctor/hospital shows instead.

You good looking, sensitive and well groomed?  Good! Too late for me, though.

It's balanced out by clumsiness, sarcasm, and a compulsion to take anything and everything apart just to see if I can.
