Blind dating

[Starise]

Always depressed, never talked, cheating and quoting bible verses to me while cheating at the same time.

What do you classify as a kook?

My point to singles is this:

Christian does not mean compatible, especially if they really aren't Christian.

I never comment on a person who talks about their ex spouse because there is always two sides of a story. After I have heard both sides then I would have an opinion.

Yes I left out the part about me being an axe murderer. 

You are correct there are two sides to every story, but two wrongs never made a right and nothing can justify adultery...numerous times I might add. Sin is sin and it can't be blamed on someone else.

I try not to talk about my two ex husbands because I have given them to God.

I wasn't going to bring it up either but the other person asked me a question and this is the best I could answer it.

None of us are perfect and we will all answer to God one day. I never go out of my way to comment on my ex. She is the mother of my children and I have some respect for her, however when Christian kooks come up it comes to mind.

For a non Christian her behavior would have been more expected. For someone who claimed to be a believer she was WAY off base and living a contradiction. Going "kooky" is running from God and doing the opposite of what He says to do. If you are a Christian and you fall and don't repent, are you really a Christian? The Bible is full of people who fell and were believers and only God knows if my ex was a real believer. What she did was in direct contradiction to what believers are supposed to do. 

I only bring this up because many who are single and looking for a good Christian mate should make close examinations of the person they are considering. Get to know them. Don't assume anything. Don't let personality, or position or looks persuade you over their core beliefs. Do they live the life of a believer?  This is why marriage advisors will say you should never rush into any of this hastily. Trust me this is good advice. There are many who call themselves believers who don't even fully know what a believer is. There are men and women who will tell you they are believers because they know that's what you want to hear.

In all Seriousness, Though, Often Times, And this can't be said enough, American women SHOULD NOT be setting anyone up on dates. Absolutely NOT. 

Why not?  Can't a woman introduce two godly friends to each other who are both looking for someone?

Anyways I've already put too much of myself out there and I feel I am being attacked for it. 

I'm done here.

I was married 4 years in the first marriage and I was married 25 years in the second marriage. God has put me in a position that he wants me to be in and has given me peace for being single.

Don't worry about it, my friend. I appreciated the humor.
