my requirements for a future girlfriend

They have to value purity and their relationship w/ God.

Believe and practice the gifts of the Holy Spirit

My girlfriend has to be supportive of my dream of being a professional comic and not try to kill my dream once I marry the girl.  This support could mean the following: moving to a bigger metro area and me being away for wks at a time.  My ultimate goal is take my wife & kids w/ me on the road because to many comics get divorced.  In addition, I will only move if God tells us both to move.

God comes first in our relationship

My girlfriend can't be desperate or flirty because both are signs of unhealed wounds.

My girlfriend has to be at least 25 (or close to it) because I'm in my mid-thirties.  My age shouldn't eliminate me for being a potential boyfriend because the fact is I don't look my age which should be a bonus.  In addition, the fruit in my life should be what causes the girl to say, hey matt pick me or thanks but I'll pass, not my age.

I like pretty girls and I like those pretty girls not to use food as a coping mechanism to deal w/ pain whether that's eating too much, too little or binging purging etc.

We have to be friends whether that's developing a friendship threw the dating process or deepening a friendship by dating.

I'm looking for a wife not a superficial relationship

A short list of my requirements as the boyfriend and this isn't exhaustive, so if I forgot something don't get all offended

That I treat my girlfriend w/ honor, respect, and dignity because I witnessed growing up an angry father who used his words to destroy his family, as God is my witness I will Never, Never use my wounds as an excuse to lash out at my kids and wife like my father did.  I've forgiven my father for his deeds and he's mellowed out with age, but that doesn't excuse his actions.  I will not retrace those steps and get sucked into the web of verbal abuse.  I'm no sucker.  This will no longer be apart of my family line.  My kids will learn the proper way to treat a woman.

That I honor her purity by waiting till the wedding night to have sex with her whether she's a virgin or not both deserve to be cherished and honored.  Plus that night should be special for her.

That I honor and value her dreams.

The Holy Spirit is the third person in our relationship

That I encourage her as a girlfriend, wife, and mother.

That I listen to her even when I can't stand all the talking because her opinions are worth it

that I have a job so I can support her and my family, I'm currently pursuing employment 4 interviews so far, the most recent one today.

finally I'm not posting this to get a girlfriend, I'm posting this so people know the truth.
