Date single boy from California, United States. Well I am a regular guy I guess, really nice personality, may be shy at times, but once you get to know me I am really fun to be around. Like hanging out with friends, shopping really isn't my thing to do but I don't mind. Horror movies are my fav and so is the month of October. Love listening to music (mostly rock, alternative, metal, techno, house music... or anything else is ok) I dress like the average person at times. Play drums, guitar, piano, but I can't sing. I also like playing PS3 every once in a while. Other than that I want to find someone that I can get along with and just have a great time -Josh
Meet a soulmate from California, United States. Well, this is definitely a personal response -- I'm sure my ideals are different from many other guys.
So, here goes --
(1) My ideal girlfriend is someone I enjoy being with. That's how it starts out -- two friends spending time with one another.
You don't really think about romance, or have expectations. You spend time with her, and, as time goes by, you realize - "Hey, I like doing things with her. I wonder if this is going to be permanent?!"
At that point, the weightier issues come to play:
(2) Does she view life as I do? Does she believe the Creator is her best friend, and is she accountable to the Creator in the things she does in secret.
(3) What are her goals in life? Does she want to help others? Is she compassionate and kind?
(4) The emotional things which are dear to me. Like music. Does she enjoy bands which have deep, thoughtful lyrics, like Pink Floyd or U2? Or Switchfoot.
(5) Hobbies. I like to hike and drive long distances, just to gaze at the wilderness and timberline. Does she share those passions? Agreed -- we're not going to be compatible in all things -- thus, can we allow one another space, as we do the things we enjoy doing by ourselves.
(6) Communication -- can we express ourselves. Are we understanding one another.
(7) Physical attraction -- you notice I mentioned this last. There's no question that it played a factor in getting us together -- not sex, but there has to be some attraction. A bit of chemistry.
If we marry, we will remain faithful to each other, and our intimacy and the "little" things, such as hugging, or snuggling, will go a long way in keeping us satisfied. If we're going to be married for life, the pleasurable aspect of our intimate lives will take a life of its own, and there's lots of time to learn and explore one another's passions.
(8) Having children. And how we will bring them into the world, and guide them through life. We may have our differences, and struggles, as well. But our commitment to seeing our children grow into maturity will never cease.
(9) Finances. It's something you never think about when you date, but it can be the dividing line when you're married. Especially in these financially challenging times. Does she stick to a budget? Does she buy what she can't afford?
Does she believe in savings? Does she give to charity? Does she believe that money is a gift from Above, and whatever we have is loaned to us, to help us, and to help others -- not to consume us, or make us slaves of the system.
(10) This last part is a bit tricky to explain, because it's complex. On one hand, I want a woman who will support my dreams, and help me to see my weaknesses -- to overcome them, and stay on the path created for me.
On the other hand, I want to help her realize her own dreams, to cover her blind spots, and overcome her own personal struggles, to stay on the path created for her.
