Where to start, lol...
Let me first say that I'm going to try my hardest to keep from offending anyone. BUT I'm not going to be politically correct because it's a very fake way to be.
First off, I have no problem with anyone dating outside of the church. My dad's in the church, my mom isn't... she was, now she's not. But hey, they're still together and very much in love. It's gross sometimes, lol. So hey, if you wanna date outside of the church, go for it. If you refuse to date outside of the church, do that. Just find somebody that can truly make you happy and will be fine with whatever beliefs you may have.
Now here's what's hitting me funny...
You put SUCH emphasis on the guys not being what they should, and then you mention, "Oh, and maybe us girls could work on one or two things." Do you have any idea that probably 90% of the guys I know have been thinking the same thoughts you are for over a year now? Only about the girls? And no one wants to speak up! Because it wouldn't be "politically correct."
"Noooo, don't say anything bad about girls! Then we'll be male chauvinist pigs!"
Girls go on and on about how stupid/rude/perverted/etc. guys are though. What's funny is if a guy says anything, immediately it's something like, "He's so immature! Jerk! PIG!" Actually, that's an entirely different conversation. Everyone's a minority except white guys such as myself. Thanks a lot U.S. goverment!
Have I offended anyone yet? lol. It's not my intention, really!
Anywho, I can't help be offended by this because I feel like I'm one of the good guys... I'm sure some girls would die laughing after reading that. Kinda how I can't take what some girls say seriously because I know what kind of person they are. BUT! Girls have just as much to work on as us guys..... if not more! lol. I can't help it, people! I have to be a LITTLE bit offensive. I'm not politically correct, I'm not going to lie to you, and sometimes I'm not right but I don't pretend to be what I'm not.
So if anyone is still reading this, and NOT really angry at me, I'd like to say HI! I've been busy lately, and... well, besides that I just don't feel the need to get online anymore!
I remember telling Tony one time, "It's very rare that you see adults hanging out with friends... you grow up, get married, have a family... and then you're busy with that the rest of your life." I see this starting to happen. We're all starting to grow up, get our own lives... and so there's some drifting going on.
Here's my advice. Stop worrying about finding someone. You said in another post yourself, April! If you're supposed to be married God will provide. He doesn't need our help. Even though we can't live in a cave, and expect to find someone... though God COULD arrange that. Friends are what's important anyways. So if we can all stop acting like teenagers, lol... maybe we can get back to having fun!

Very nice to hear from you again, hope you're doin well. :)
For starters, of course the ladies need to change. I was in no way tryin to say just the men, or even more so the men. Everyone has something they need to work on. I mainly posted b/c of what was going on around me. I'm working to change myself, some of my girlfriends are as well.. and I noticed a lot of them are finding these great outside guys that act a lot more wholesome than the guys in the church. Not saying all guys in the church are jerks either, I know a lot of outstanding guys in the faith. So don't take my post as something it wasn't. I've helped in writing something for DMSR, maybe you should read it (and the other numerous articles).. it's all about women changing.
And I'd like to find someone, someday get married and have a family and all that.. but right now the timing just isn't good. So don't worry about me fretting over it, that isn't happening anyway ;)
