What about personality?
Posted : 22 Jul, 2009 08:27 PM

Why is it that a male will constantly say "Good looks do not matter to me, I am looking for someone with an awesome personality" however the girls with great personalities are still left standing? This has not just happened to me so I do not feel as if it is my personality that is a problem lol...however it very well could be, I am just wanting an answer.

what there are pics with no shirts, where?

hee hee. seriously, must not be the profiles or age i'm looking at.

I think men think that women are looking for a guy that exercises, i see that alot in profiles for interest. I don't see exercise as an interest, but as a health consideration / lifestyle, i'd rather have a chocolate dessert, but i eat the veggies. Someone who spends all his time at the gym, i'd be asking what gym? (gyms have different reputations and attitudes).

seriously, whose profiles.... hey gotta keep it lite... :dancingp:

all great responses. Part of the reason Paul continually denies women the opportunity to lead in churches is that he knows men will manipulate godly women into sin; and through these men, those women will be tools of Satan.



To get our way as humans, we try to appeal to the other's senses and values. One hopes the other other is sincere; but for many "charming" people, these pretenses are the only tools they ever known.



Underlying the deception is often the deeper sin of not valuing human life. I'm almost through with the eviction process for 2 young men who prey on women using these same tactics. It's been a good month for my prayer life, especially as they've repeatedly threatened assault.



One of the other issues is that this site doesn't clean up inactive profiles. Compounded with fact that a lot of people on here use the site the way they do the non-Christian sites, you'll find a lot of people who don't read or refuse to reply to communication.

Praise the LORD. I do agree, we should be upfront and honest. Looks matter, but looks alone won't do it for me. I love a kind, submissive, loving woman.



I believe and have learned that if a woman is wise enough, she can win a man over if the looks are not so great, by a wonderful personality. It may though take much patience. Experience teaches us what to look for and some women are fakers. They become who they know you want and then change on you into who you don't want after they get you. Loving and submissive, becomes rude and bossy. Yikes!



Loving CHRIST Always,

Thaddeus

I personally do not see much wrong with the pics of men without their shirts on. I mean not that much temptation to me, you drive down the road and see someone working or mowing the yard with their shirt off. Or go to the swimming pool. You have to remember that men were made to be the visual ones whereas females are the ones who are emotional ones..which is why it is worse for females to be showy with their bodies.

Praise the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and peace be unto you.





Bush 256 you said "all great responses. Part of the reason Paul continually denies women the opportunity to lead in churches is that he knows men will manipulate godly women into sin; and through these men, those women will be tools of Satan."



However,



The Scripture teaches: The command of women not leading in chuches didn't come from Paul, but from the LORD JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF. (I Cor 14:37)



Also, the reason you gave isn't found in the Scriptures.



I believe that men can be more manipulated into sexual sin (if that's the sin you're speaking of) by women than vice versa as we plainly see throughout many churches today, with male leaders falling.



In the Love of CHRIST,

Thaddeus

why are the men being manipulated? maybe it's the men using their authority to manipulate women... note some of those same spiritual leaders and political leaders!! There was an article in local newspaper where the writer compares the lack of adultery with high level political women. He supposed it to two reasons 1) men more prone to develop God-like attitude, able to do what he wants and not held accountable, 2) women stop those activities because being aware they will be more scrutinized and held accountable. the article went on to be-rate this attitude of just saying sorry for indiscretion makes it okay.

Two things I want to say to that.



First, anybody that says "looks do not matter" is either willfully lying or self-deceived. We are looking to have a relationship with a corporeal human not a disincarnated spirit. The physical is a very important aspect of a romantic relationship.



Second, what constitutes and defines a "great personality" is highly subjective. We are not all attracted to the same personalities in the same way, just as we are not all attracted to the same physical appearances.



You are so young with so many opportuities ahead of you. Just relax and enjoy your life and seek to grow more in every way and it will happen before you know it.



Peace.
