1. Do you really read long profiles? Or do you read profiles at all? - I prefer to read the entire profile. Whether long or short, I read it all.



3. Do you care about women' level of education? - Personally, nope. Whether a Ph.D from an ivy league university to the school of hard knocks. So long as the person "thinks". Sounds horrible, but it's really less about formal education for me.



4. Do you want to know about her ex? - I want to anything that she wants to share. And so long as she isn't still emotionally intertwined with her ex, it's all a part of what's made her who she is.



5. As Christians, are you planning to have sex before marriage? - Just had this conversation with a good friend of mine, who's also a Christian and we differ on this matter. I say keep your clothes on, as this is the mandate of God. Her thoughts were that since there is love, then God understands our hearts and thus, we are not truly sinning. I disagree. Since we have the institution of marriage and we've been instructed that sex outside of marriage is fornication, well, seems to me the line is rather clear. So for me, the clothes stay on.



Good questions, by the way...

not "truly" sinning. Hmmm sounds like justification to ME! I've done that too! It's still sin. And there is still forgiveness for those who repent and turn to GOD for strength instead of thinking he/she can do it on his/her own!



Don't be deceived! Satan is an opportunist. ANY opportunity you give him, he will be more than happy to make full use of! I lived there for 30 years - AS A CHRISTIAN! It's no fun tryin to ride that fence!

@TheSeekingOneSings - Love reading your posts by the way! And like you, I told her the same thing! The whole "we're not really sinning" argument doesn't stand up against the word.



I am honest enough to say that I am man with needs and there are times when it gets really challenging to live in a world when the secular throw themselves at me. TRUTH PEOPLE - I am a spirit in a physical body, thus I am prone to contend with the fleshy wants. But maintaining that focus requires the word of God. Daily.



Ain't easy, but worth it. One less thing to have forgiveness for! :yay:

From 1trugod,



1.Whether long or short I read them but the only way your

going to really get to know one another is by starting a relationship and communicating honestly. I'd rather

read a short profile, the rest will come if you decide to communicate.:applause:

2.I like a picture that is close up and shows the whole person.

Some pictures are too far away so why post the picture.:rolleyes:

3.It's whats inside that counts. But at least a high school education would be nice.:peace:

4.Unless it is really significant to the relationship you are having I think it should be a mutual agreement whether to

talk alot about him or her.:angel:

5.If your "planning" to have sex before marriage then I would question the relationship itself. Both would need to get straight with God before even considering another relationship.But remember about all things we are not perfect because of our sin nature. We do our best with

Gods help of course. :prayingm:

You seem to be a very nice woman. My reply to your questions are pretty much the same as the others who have replied to you. I like to seperate myself from others... I have a question for you... What seperates you from others and makes you unique?

Sure, I will respond to them. I read long profiles, but that depends on the other highlights of that persons profile. If the woman is looking for a guy 10 years her junior, I'll not read much of it. And if other things don't line up, it would not be a good use of time. Not looking for long term, or Marriage.



As for pics, I like close ups that show her face. Ones taken at a bar, are not really good for a Christian dating site. Ya think?? I'm looking for quality, not quantity. ;)



I do care about education, but College can stunt as well as broaden. So, I more care about what she has done with her life and the education she has.



Ex's info is for later. Not for publication in a profile. I try to make sure I'm over mine before I even start to date. My last one took 3 years. So, I'm comfortable with that. If you don't get over it, and just date out of loneliness, then things are sort of doomed anyway.



And, what kind of a Christian are you if you are looking for sex with someone who is not your spouse?? We never know if a relationship will work out, but a marriage is more dedicated. Don't get me wrong, I love intimacy, and have sinned before. But, I am a repentant sinner. I'm not perfect, but I can control myself as a man. All the best, and hope this helps someone. God bless!

Very good questions! Too bad not many guys responded. As for me, I only read long profiles if (1) the first paragraph or introduction is, in general, an attention-getter. Otherwise I'll just skim through her profile. But even if I'm not her targeted audience I still enjoy a good read. (2) It is well written with good grammar, and (3) if I find it personally intriguing.

The pictures that get my attention are of close-ups and when they are taken in a creatively way. Moreover, when they smile.

Level of education is not that important to me, as long as they graduated from high school and they brains.

As long as she's not attached to him emotionally, unless if she feels the need to share with me about her previous relationships, I can care less.

I don't want to have any sexual relationships before marriage.
