    hello from maine

    You are from Maine? I'm not from Maine and have a good friend from Maine. And by association I consider Maine to be a good place. It's good to keep our eyes focused on God before, during, and/or after God sends the right person. God bless in your search/wait for the right person.

    So We All Know About Our OWN Quirks - How Good Are We at Putting Up with Someone Else's? Are We Just Too Set in Our Ways?

    While I agree with your thought in general, on the same token, loving someone means also changing yourself, including your quirks, in consideration of others. Personally I don't identify my uniqueness based on my quirks but rather by the bond and relationship I have with Christ as a believer...

    What Are Some Habits, Quirks, or Things About You That Might Take a Spouse Some Getting Used To?

    It may sound weird coming from a fellow man but your "profile" sounds good, in fact, great especially for ladies who are looking for someone caring and down to earth. I see little bit of myself in your profile as well and I can relate to some. God bless in your search for the right person.

    Would you consider a woman in her 20s twice divorced

    No provision from the Lord when there's a clear desiring of spouse doesn't mean God is ignoring or neglecting your need and desire (I'm sure you are aware of this but sometimes it's something we forget when we are in that particular situation for long time and get caught up in having to wait for...

    Do you enjoy your singleness?

    You are right, your spouse now being your best friend and a closest family member; no problem there. Also, what if one is living by him/herself, away from family and having no friends around? Nothing's wrong with a single Christian wishing and hoping to have that significant other in your life...

    Would The Story of Your Life Be a Best-Seller?

    God often uses those with humble heart and maybe the "boring" part of our life is there to humble us so we come to a conclusion that we are not going to be "great," just being one of many. And then, one day, you come across a burning bush....

    Would you marry you?

    Great question. I used to ask a similar question and it was 'if you had a daughter, would you give your daughter to someone like me?' and my answer was 'dude, I don't think so - don't even think about it.' Soon enough the question evolved into whether God would give one of His daughters to me...

    Is anybody listening to me?

    I believe one of most powerful "preaching" is your own life - preaching with your mouth one thing yet your life does not reflect what you preach, then it loses credibility. See if your life aligns with what you preach because people, especially non-believers to catch if you are real or fake.

    Thought it was an honest sharing of your relational life - hope things work out better for you as you rely on the Lord's guidance.

    Would you be willing to wait for the person you like/love for 10 years?

    right on. This was based on hypothetical situation - who can guarantee anything after 5 or 10 years whether it's a guarantee that you get to start a relationship or the person you love will stay the same. This was more of regardless of variables, too many variables, would you wait for that...

    Would you be willing to wait for the person you like/love for 10 years?

    It's a hypothetical situation. So the questions why do I need to wait 5 or ten years, what is the other person doing and how I know it is guaranteed are irrelevant. Same thing with how will I know he/she is "perfect" (thus why in quotation mark). The real question I was asking myself was...

    I bet you've never....

    My bad Pipp, I didn't read it carefully - somehow connected 'Mazda' with 'accidentally rolled' and that produced something else. Now, that must have been the scariest thing to go through.
