"looks open the door, but they don't sell the house." As Christians, we all want to find a partner who fits what a husband/wife should biblically be. But at the same time, Most people want someone who meets their physical criteria.(I put it like that because everyone is attracted to different things) Not to say that all attractive people can't be Christians, but it's easy to look at the outer appearance first..... As an example: Let's say, if you had 2 guys/girls. Both where great Christians. But one was more attractive than the other and they both asked you out, who would you be more inclined to say yes too? That's how Christians can fall for the fried ice cream. They may look how you want them to look and may go to church, but how are they spiritually? They could just be wolf's in sheep's clothing. I have heard stories and have seen it in my church where someone acts as a Christian to impress a guy/girl, but once they get together the one pulls the other out of the body. A lot of it has to do with spiritual maturity as well. The closer you are with Christ the easier it is to avoid the mistakes/deceptions. Especially when it comes to finding a spouse. Never go for someone until you have a good grasp of where they are spiritually. And if they aren't up to par then move on and save the head aches. Post Reply

Excellent reply, and in reply to would you go out with someone according to their looks, in retrospect I've learned over the years that my way (dating those who are better looking in my opinion) isn't an answer to who I want to date and meet. Your reply answers who I'll go out with. Looks has nothing to do with whom I want to date, but their character determines whether I will date them. This actually can only be realistically known over time, you can tell a person by their fruits. Some examples are the places they like to frequent, the actual time a person spends with God and where they put that priority in time, where their money has been spent and the reason behind their expenditures. Your reply was enjoyed and thank you for sharing this. Post Reply
View Profile History	truth be told Posted : 4 Mar, 2017 07:00 PM Men and women are looking for different things in each other. Men, of course, look at appearance, but they also look at spiritual compatibility and character. However, their #1 deal breaker is usually looks. There are many other deal breakers, of course. And a shallow observer might come to the conclusion that men are only after good looking women, and that's all. Again, that's not a very smart way to judge men. It's like saying, all women judge men by their shoes. lol Post Reply
