Admin	Never been married and rejected??? Posted : 24 Jun, 2010 05:54 PM I was on another site and a member there said they would never entertain a relationship with someone in their 40's or older who has never been married. Please give me some open feed back on that? Is that how most guys feel and tell me why? Post Reply

Posted : 27 Jun, 2010 10:35 AM I'm in my thirties, and personally I would prefer someone who has never been married even into their thirties than someone who is divorced. Seriously? They'd rather date someone who likely has kids and emotional baggage from a bad marriage/relationship than someone who has never married and won't be bringing ghosts from the pasts into the current relationship? Man, people are stupid. Post Reply

Especially if we are talking about "full-hearted" christian people who divorced or had numbers of relationships. What is the difference this time? Am I special enough that she would stay? Isnt that a good question? Who cuts his own flesh apart? Especially when Jesus himself teaches that all this divorcing stuff is "hard heartedness" (Mt 19)? Of course I know that I made a good share of mistakes in my life. Maybe I am just presumptuous because of never been married or in a serious relationship. I know that the Lord protected me - because there were definitely hours of extreme weakness over the years - in which I was not sorely tempted. So I believe that it is just Satan trying to demote chastity. Brothers and Sisters, dont let the great liar and murderer of old that he is get to you! Dont believe his lies! Believe what Jesus says about chastity. And he is waiting for his bride for a long time already too. But he is patient too. He knows his bride already, ok, might help. :D Post Reply
View Profile History	Never been married and rejected??? Posted : 29 Jun, 2010 04:48 PM Failed relationships have taught me the value of relationship. It isn't enough for me to be with someone who likes me or says they love me and doesn't understand the value of relationship. I think it all depends on the way the unmarried person thinks. I have a friend that is a 57 year old woman who has never been married or in a very serious relationship and I don't think I could ever be in a relationship with her because her priorities are all about her needs and she doesn't really have room for living sacrificially in a marriage relationship. On the other hand I have know several women that are divorced or widowed and they really get it and know what they want and what it takes to make it work. Thunder Post Reply

But more than 50% of all marriages are divorced nowadays. How can a divorced person know how it works? Did they not - to the contrary - prove that they were not at all able nor willing to make it just work? Divorce rates like this simply scare the hell out of me, believe me. And it not at all better, is worse if someone was not married and had relationships - and split up. Maybe a couple of times already. Didnt work? What is it that "makes it work"? I believe that there is something that renders "it" not working: The biased thinking of starting a relationship as something you can try out and waste if it is too much work. Ask me where I got those ideas... Post Reply
