In a brief conversation, a man asked a woman he was
pursuing the question, "What kind of man are you
looking for?"
She sat quietly for a moment before
looking him in the eye and asking. "Do you really want
to know?"
Reluctantly, he said, "Yes." She began to expound...
As a woman in this day and age, I am in a position to
ask a man what he can do for me that I can't do for
myself.
I pay my own bills... I take care of my
household without the help of any man...So, I am in
the position to ask, "What can you bring to the
table?"
The man looked at her. Clearly he thought that she
was referring to money.
She quickly corrected his thought and stated, "I am
not referring to money."
I need something more!!!
I need a man who is striving for perfection in every
aspect of life." He sat back in his chair, folded his
arms, and asked her to explain. She said, "
I am looking for someone who is striving for
perfection mentally, because I need conversation and
mental stimulation.
I don't need a simple-minded man.
" I am looking for someone who is striving for
perfection spiritually because I don't need to be
unequally yoked... believers mixed with unbelievers is
a recipe for disaster.
I need a man who is striving for perfection
financially because I don't need a financial burden.
I am looking for someone who is sensitive enough to
understand what I go through as a woman, but strong
enough to keep me grounded.
I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order
to be submissive, I must respect him. I cannot be
submissive to a man who isn't taking care of his
business.
I have no problem being submissive...he just
has to be worthy.
God made woman to be a helpmate for man. I can't help
a man if he can't help himself.
When she finished her spill, she looked at him. He
sat there with a puzzled look on his face. He said,
"You're asking a lot."
