Well, First of all I want someone that will love me just by being me. Do you know what I mean? Someone that will want to be with me and hang around with me just to be with me.
Do you mean, "someone that will love me as I currently am"? Or are you just talking about "someone that loves me so much that they want to hang around me"? I can certainly relate to the idea of loving someone to the point of wanting to be around them all the time, that's one way I know I love my family so much.
I want someone that is romantic- but not overly gushy. Someone who is strong-not physically, but mentally.
Right, you want an honourable, masculine figure; not a "girly man", as Arnold Schwarzenegger would say.
Someone that will know my heart. That way, if I happen to somehow miss my soulmate, they will hopefully recognize me.
So you're also looking for someone that can help you be what you want to be, even if you don't know what that is. Is that a fair assessment? Are you also ready to accept a soulmate's eventual headship?
And, someone who loves God.
Of course, you are determined, as we all should be, to not marry outside of the faith. That's a good thing; too many people nowadays are compromising the words of Jesus, and becoming nominal Christians.
These are good qualities to look for in a soulmate, and obviously if you desire such qualities in a soulmate, I can tell that you also desire such qualities in yourself. Would you care to talk further?
In Yahweh's Love and Truth,
Christ's Serf
