I am different. I have integrity. But I cannot be genuine unless you are genuine. To get close to my heart, you must be honest and sincere. You must be truly serious about a committed relationship. I do not need to know everything about your past, but what I am told I want to have be authentic. I realize how important this is for real and lasting emotional and spiritual intimacy, which brings close physical intimacy. If you can feel safe discussing your thoughts, feelings, and faith with me, there is a greater level of intimacy in our relationship.

I am comfortable dating a breathtaking woman. I am confident and secure in myself. When a beautiful woman has reliably reaffirmed me with her feelings, I have not been jealous when she was with other men on business or socializing across the city, in another state, and out of the country. I want a relationship where time and space follow naturally after reassurance in truthfulness.

My ideal mate wants me to be her closest friend, wants to laugh often, and wants to experience together every food, every country, every year, every blessing, and every disappointment. I am culturally tolerant, religiously tolerant, and politically tolerant; and I like to be with an open-minded woman with open-minded parents. I want to be with someone whose family is uplifting to marriage as a permanent commitment; and who will not use my faith differences to interfere in your marriage to a regardlessly loving, faithful, providing, and Christian man. I do not want a woman who thinks herself so religious and saved that the grace (favor) of God allows her to plan unfaithfulness. Also, I want to have a family; so this is a priority.

The greatest thing about meeting someone with children is they are proven as a fit parent. My children will be beautifully charming, steadfastly obedient, generally organized, especially respectful, friends to everyone, affectionate with strangers, make a connection with adults, and get excellent grades. They will also be well cared for and already have financial provisions set aside through college.

I enjoy being with a woman who is either confidently successful in her own education/career, or who wants to be a stay-at-home mother, or both. I like women who go after what they want, and succeed at whatever that becomes. I particularly respect smart women, I am intrigued by feminine women, and I am attracted to women who care about health and fitness.

I would love to meet someone who does not drink, however this is not a deal breaker. I know how to order and taste a bottle of wine from every varietal and region. But there is nothing classier than a woman who does not need to drink to define herself. I resolve to never go into a nightclub without it being for a scheduled event with a date walking beside me.

I was once highly driven, and now I am relaxed. I am not a perfectionist anymore, and I try to be legitimate. I do not want to impress anyone now, but to be with someone with whom I can be comfortable. However, I will challenge you and bring out the best in you, and want you to do the same for me. I have an easygoing and effortless sense of humor if you can both relax and think quickly at the same time, as most people can around me.

I will show affection, affirmation, time, thoughtful gifts, and acts of kindness. I will cook dinner by candlelight, and breakfast in bed. I will pick you up on time for a date and hold your hand to walk you through a crowded room. I want to talk to you first in the morning and listen to you last before I go to bed. I will smile continuously if you love me. I will cry if you cheat on me. If you are loyal, I will protect your life, your future, and your heart.

I am guided in every aspect of my life by the commandments of God, the gospel  of Jesus Christ, and the gift of the holy ghost. He has given me whatsoever I have asked which is right. He has given me treasures higher than mere riches or wealth. He gives me wisdom, understanding, knowledge, instruction, learning, counsel, prudence, humility, honor, truth, justice, judgment, and equity. He answers my prayers with his own voice.

The spirit of wisdom says that foolish men despise wisdom and instruction (Prov. 1:7), laughers and scorners hate knowledge (Prov. 1:22), it is sport to a fool to do mischief (Prov. 10:23), we should forsake the foolish and live (Prov.9:6), and we should walk with wise men and be wise, or be the companion of a fool and be destroyed (Prov. 13:20). I have already been delivered and rescued (Dan. 6:27). Jesus Christ is my deliverer and rescuer. The foolish cannot be rescued, and the wise do not need you to rescue them. But I will walk hand-in-hand to eternity with the person who wants to enjoy my blessings with me.

We are not commanded to live alone, nor to be without help, nor to walk with the foolish, nor to pray without togetherness to receive his spirit. Walk with a wise man and have eternal love. Pray with me and have life. Have our prayer answered together and live for eternity. Show yourself as you are to me, and I will show myself as I am to you. Let me love you the way that God created you, and please love me the way that God created me. Let me love your weaknesses, and then please love me as I also become stronger. Let me understand your past, and then please understand my future. Let me accept your mistakes, and then please allow me make more of mine. Let me share in your sins, and then please help me repent of mine. Let me forgive and be forgiven. Let me love and be loved.
