The Mission

I have been called many things in my life...I have been called skinny (a lot), funny, annoying, lazy, annoying, idiot, smart, tiring, annoying, funny, weird, etc...I took it all, been traumatized by some, laughed at the rest and ignored what was left.

Fortunately for me, I have never been called ugly in my life (until after some read this post I guess). As discouraging and hurtful as it can be to be called ugly by anyone, even in arguments, I cannot recall anybody calling me that...and I Thank God for that.

Now granted, I am no Will Smith, Denzel, Clooney or Brad Pitt, but I am confident that I will not lose a beauty contest to Flavor flav either....

With each person trying to elucidate the mystery of my singlehood, in light of my admitted desire to settle down, once again "why am I still single? I DO NOT KNOW!!!

Picky? no, just selective. Shy? Not enough to pass on a great woman. Afraid? Am a guy, aren't I? Gay? sure you want that to be the last word of your life?

The wise man tried to help on the issue of life:

  1. Club scene: Too much mistrust...and it's expensive
  2. Online dating: Too impersonal...and it's expensive
  3. Mutual friends: Too risky...and it's expensive (for your ego)
  4. Blind date: Too dangerous...and it's expensive (for your safety)
  5. Arranged marriage: Hey!!!!!
  6. Free social events: Too imprecise...but it's cheap
  7. Hook-up: Too immature...and it's expensive (for your reputation)
  8. God: Come again?

Well, you've tried the clubs, bars, dating (blind, online and hook-up), what would it cost you to give God a try...hum, maybe the fact that the only link between God and relationships I have heard of stems from a certain area of not doing something, before someone becomes something for you at some time...it was not the best PR compaign, but it had merits healthwise.

Well, in lights of the strong desire to settle, and the desperate mood at hand, I say why not...if God fails too, at least we will all know what stands at the end of the road...or I could have a last option in the Pay-for bride russian thingy...lol

So this is the mission: Chronicle the evolution of dating, Bible style. To love or not to love, secular or Christian way, this is the objective. First step: What to look for?

The Challenging statement: I am Christian, but emanicpated, or I am single, but Christian...hum!!!
