oh, I think you are very right. Some"chistian's " are very, very shallow and just don't get what this Is, or what finding a mate, a Godly mate, is truly all about. I've had my profile on here for about 3 yrs and have just not really searched til maybe the last year, at least seriously. And I find the same situation in a lot of the guys on here..if you're not what they consider HOT, no matter what you're walk wth God is like or what values or moral you have, they won't even give you the time of day...I was recently scammed by someone who I thought was lagit and wasn't. Unfortatly some people on here are not even REALLY who they say they are..the best thing to do is start as friends, good Godly friends and not trust the just because anyone says the are a "Christian" that they truly are...some are genuine however, the best thing to do is pray over their profile and ask God to direct and lead you to the person He has for you. If anyone is interested in knowing, men and women, how to seek out ones who are most likely the scammers, I will give you the info I know of cause I would never want anyone to go through what I did with that...and some woman can be just as big of a scammer as some of the men are..you just never know unless you are prayed up and allow God to tell you or show you who is and isn't legit. And then, there are some who are just shallow Christians who have no idea what true genuine charater is all about and some don't even care, they just wanna look good with someone on their arm so to speak that will make them or keep them popular with other shallow humans in their lives..yes, nice looking men or woman are nice to have, but only far down on the list of what you really want in a mate, or at least that should be where they fall...i'm talking like maybe the last or 5 charatistics on a long list of those charateristics. It's what's inside the person's heart and their spirit that matters most...if God looks at our hearts first and formost, then who are we to do any differently? So i'd like to say, just hang in there, and keep trusting the Lord...and don't SETTLE for someone who is too shallow and close minded to see you as God sees you.

VERY GOOD POINT!!! I FEEL YOUR PAIN! WAS GIVEN NO RESPONSES BY ANY OF THE MEN ON THIS SITE THAT I WROTE TO, EXCEPT FOR ONE. BUT HE WAS NOT INTERESTED IN ME. MAYBE BECAUSE I'M TOO SHORT AND FAT AND WEAR GLASSES, OR LIVE TOO FAR AWAY. NO LUCK WITH CHRISTIANMINGLE EITHER. IT MAY BE THAT THE LORD DOES NOT WANT SOME OF US TO LOOK FOR OUR MATES THRU THE INTERNET, BUT HE WILL SEND THEM TO US DIRECTLY IN DUE TIME.

I agree, Waterlily2013,



But you're not that old; you can get a guy in your own age range, and have a good chance of having a long marriage or relationship.



I'm 50, and a lot of men my own age--or even a little younger--have let themselves go. It's not so much what they look like, but just the health issues associated with being overweight, really.



I want someone who is just as healthy and active as I am, because that means he may live as long as I will--giving us a chance at a long healthy life together.



So, of course, I am looking for someone who indicates on his profile that he is not only a real Christian, but also living an active and healthy lifestyle.



I've put up a limited age range of men I'll allow to message me, in my Account Settings: 46-56. I want someone from my own generation.



Yes, I do have standards, but I've paid a dear price in the past when I did NOT have standards. So, I'm keeping my high standards, and know that there is someone out there who meets them. It just takes time.



We should not sacrifice our standards out of a lack of patience.



Hang in there, sister!
