So here is the last of The Professors questions. Considering this is the second time in less than 2 weeks that I have been called out on this subject…I have been thinking about it a lot. The hardest part has been removing any bias that I may have at the moment. With that said, here it is.
What do you desire and feel with another person, deeper then the surface level and how you feel you deserve to be treated? There are so many things that I have thought of that im just going to list them….
A best friend who can complete my sentences.
A woman just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.
Someone who accepts my past and loves me none the less.
She has to understand that my life isnt my own, Gods will for my life is essential.
I want to be treated with respect.
My family is important, whoever it is has to embrace the value of family.
We can sit in silence and feel comfortable.
Whenever I lose focus, she reminds me of my goals and helps me get back on track.
I deserve a Godly woman who is willing to read the Bible and pray with me on a daily basis.
While this wasnt part of the question I need to include it. What do I need in the woman of my dreams? I need her to love God more than she can ever love me. At the same time I need to have a woman who understands that God needs to be more important to me than she will ever be. I dont think it can be better said than what King Solomon wrote a long time ago in the book of Proverbs.
(Proverbs 31:10-31)
10 A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
So this completes the most recent “series” of questions. If you have anything you’d like to me answer…email, text, call or leave a comment. Im always seeking new topics to write about. Otherwise it’s back to what I normally do. Have a Happy Memorial Day.

That’s a great list. Hopefully it will help you navigate!
Just as a side note, I find it interesting that this list is in complete sentences & descriptive phrases… while your list describing yourself was basically a list of single words. Maybe you should re-do it. =)

No need to say sorry. You’re one of the bartenders I write about that has been ridiculously supportive of my decision to get sober. If people are offended…too bad!
