Clearly he thought that I was referring to money.
I 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 me to explain.
I 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 someone unequally yoked….believers mixed with non-believers is a recipe for disaster. And even if he is a believer, he needs to believe as I do.
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, and strong enough to keep me grounded when I do go through changes. I don’t need a man who is going to purposely bring me grief.
I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must respect him and he must respect me.
I cannot be submissive to a man who isn’t taking care of his business or who is “messy” in his personal affairs. I have no problem being submissive..but he has to be worthy.
God made woman to be a help mate for man. I can’t help a man if he can’t help himself.
If he can’t help himself then he definitely can’t help me.”
When I finished my spiel, I looked at him.
He sat there with a puzzled look on his face.
He said, “You are asking for a lot”.
I replied, “I’M WORTH A LOT.”
