Ideal

Today, one of the guys I work with wanted to know what I considered my "ideal guy." Totally threw me for a loop, and at first I wasn't even sure what to say. I know some girls make lists of what they want in a guy, but for me it was always just something that was vaguely in the back of my mind. Every now and then I'd be like, "Oh yeah, I like a guy that's like that." Anyways, this is all kind of round about, but, I was going somewhere with this. I thought about it some more before I answered him, and I actually came up with a couple things. The more I think about it though, the more thoughts I have on the matter. I don't want someone whose perfect. I'm not perfect, and I know that nobody is really perfect. I want a guy whose real, not someone who has to fake being someone else. A guy who likes me for me, in spite of all my flaws and weaknesses, and in turn I hope that I can like a guy like that. There's a quote that kind of sums my tangled thoughts up.

The most important thing for me though, in a guy, is not just that he's a Christian, but that he is passionate about the things of God. I don't want a guy whose satisfied with just being a Christian. I want a guy who continually seeks to grow in the Lord, as well as challenges me in my own walk with the Lord. I realize that not too many girls think like that. Call me old-fashioned, but that's okay with me. It's not a bad thing to be a little old-fashioned. So those are my thoughts on the "ideal guy." But really, I know God will bring along the guy whose just right for me, and God's timing is perfect.
