The definition of the word mate, according to Dictionary.com, is a partner or one of a pair. The perfect mate is something that cannot be achieved but you can strive for. Knowing what characteristics, you like in a mate will help you find someone close to perfect for you. Perfect (free from all faults) characteristics are not what I look for, I look for ideal (most suitable) characteristics in a guy. In this essay I talk about what I look for in a guy compared to what my parents want in a husband for me. I have a couple qualities that are extremely important for my future husband to possess. One of the most important qualities is that he is a Christian guy that loves God with all his heart. This Godly guy has to treat me, my family and friends with respect. It is really important for him to understand my sarcasm because I don’t want someone that will easily get offended. He needs to have a great sense of humor because one of my favorite things to do is laugh. Also someone that will …show more content…
The main characteristic that my parents and I agreed on was that he has to be a guy that allows God to be in the center of our relationship. Another point that we all made was that this guy should be open to new experiences, always willing to try new things. Something that my parents pointed out to me that I think is great is that this guy should love me for all my flaws and accept me for me. I feel like my parents and I have the same general idea for the guy that I would like my future husband to be. I know that I will never find a perfect mate so that is why I’m looking for my ideal mate. Someone who will love me unconditionally, has a great sense humor and has a relationship with God. Through this I have learned a lot from my parents about what to look for in a future husband. I also learned a lot about myself and what I truly want in a guy. I would really encourage you to write down what you look for in your ideal
You deserve a man who does not expect you to be perfect, but who is willing to go all out in his love for you, exactly as Christ did for the church. You deserve a love marked by giving, not getting. Christ’s love makes the church whole. His words evoke her beauty. Everything he does and says is designed to bring the best out of her, dressing her in dazzling white silk, radiant with holiness. And that is how your future husband ought to love you (before you think me too profound, I stole much of this paragraph from Ephesians 5). This is the man I am praying God brings to you. He will not be perfect at it in the beginning, but he ought to at least be point this direction. Many men will say they are shooting for this target, but it is their actions and their words which really tell the
If you are about to get married, then you are in a great place and have a wonderful opportunity to discuss the most important thing you could. Think about discussing these things with the person you are about to enter into a covenant. Married or not, this could be one of the most important conversations you will ever have. Every marriage should have an agreed foundation. So many marriages are failing because of lack of this exe...
The idea of the ‘perfect woman’ is one that has been a popular topic of discussion over the past decade. Unreal Celebrity Photoshop Transformations was a video revealed on YouTube and Buzzfeed on January 7th 2014. The purpose was to educate the public on the effects altered photos has on society. Within a matter of one week the video gained over a million views. The argument behind the viral text has many different aspects and angles to view it from. The video argues the damaging effects of altering photos through a logical lens by displaying examples of unnecessary transformations of celebrity photos, grasping an individual’s emotions to understand the psychological toll photos take on young adults in society.
Perfect: adj. ˈpər-fikt 1. Entirely without any flaws, defects, or shortcomings, is the first definition you find on dictionary.com for the word (perfect). Is this actually possible to attain? Has anyone actually ever been perfect? Or is it all in the eye of the beholder? These questions are asked by almost every girl, as we dream to one day reach the unattainable. This is especially true at the tender age of fifteen, where nothing seems to be going right with our bodies and everything is changing in us. This poem stresses the fact that as everyone realizes how unrealistic this dream is, the knowledge makes no difference to the wish. Marisa de los Santos comments on this in her poem “Perfect Dress”. The use of verbose imagery, metaphors, and the simplistic approach are very effective in portraying the awkward adolescent stage of a young woman and the unrealistic dream of being perfect.
As the title may suggest, An Ideal Husband’s main theme is marriage a common principle for the melodrama’s of Oscar Wilde’s era. The Victorian popular theatre provided typical narratives of domestic life that, after several tragedies, would conclude in the repetition of identifiable themes: faithfulness, sacrifice, eternal love, mercy, commitment...
We have covered some very important strategies, concepts and information in this letter that will set you on a road to assist you in your relationship: such as understanding the power of words, developing strategies for listening, understanding how nonverbal expression can affect relationships, and evaluating appropriate self-disclosure. When you allow yourself to not to be selfish and you can put yourself in your mate’s shoes the road to a successful marriage will follow.

As long as each of you treat each other how you expect to be treated you will experience a loving and healthy long lasting marriage. I pray that you have learned as much as I have and enjoy each other and your advancements.
A good marriage is like fine wine, don 't you think? I thought so. Some characteristics of a good marriage are: ownership and hope and empathy and forgiveness and commitment
The idea of perfection is completely individual. We base our idea of perfection on our interest, abilities, and style. What may be perfection to someone is totally not perfection to another. For example, Zeke Cohen in Ms. EN’s four red class discussion said, “My friends like blondes and I like red heads because we see perfection differently.” Although this is a silly example, it is one-hundred percent true. What are we really reaching for if everyone is reaching for something different? This is what makes perfection confusing. One person is reaching for their “perfection” while another is reaching for a total different “perfection”.
What Christian characteristics should a spouse possess to maintain this loving, lifelong relationship known as marriage? The three most important attributes that a spouse must have are trust, kindness, and forgiveness. If a married couple plans to live life together and work with each other, trust is essential. For instance, a husband must trust that his wife will not commit adultery, and vice versa.
I agree with most of the desirable and undesirable characteristics of a potential mate listed in the textbook. However, I would also list another important undesirable characteristic a potential mate is having poor communication styles. We talked a lot in one of the discussion board posts last week the importance of communication and how to communicate in a relationship. In fact, I had an experience where I went on a date with a friend of mine and I ended it because of his lack of or poor communication skills. I highly value making communication a priority in a relationship because it brings balance and you get to know your spouse better by it. Overall, I agree with the desirable and undesirable characteristics in a potential mate listed in
...ience true perfection. Since an ideal can never hold up to a reality, nothing can be truly perfect.
I strongly believe that there is or was someone out there who you are or were perfect for. Out of everyone in the history of humans, there was definitely someone who you would’ve been perfect for. I also think that if everyone had found their soulmates and were with them that war wouldn’t go on, that there would be peace. I think this because war wouldn’t be worth risking that you may never see your soulmate again. That one day you could wake up and find out that your soulmate had died. Nobody would want to risk losing the one person that completed them and took all the loneliness away. I also think that having a soulmate isn’t great. If we were to end up with that one person exactly like you that made them perfect it would be weird. It would be like being together with yourself or your twin. That’s gross! I mean being together with yourself wouldn’t be necessarily bad for a Narcissus, but it would be awkward. This person likes almost everything you like or they are the exact opposite than you. Either there would rarely be arguments or there would frequently be arguments. Having someone in between is the best because it also gives you the opportunity to like new things as
I would like to believe that I am most accurately described as a nurturing, compassionate, and loving boyfriend. All too often my ears pick up on the conversations of people declaring that I am all of these qualities and many more, no conceit intended.
Although not everyone considers taking the next step towards marriage, it can be concluded that there are many dimensions in a relationship. When living with your significant other, you will have to deal with the economical aspect of the household. The finances have to either be equally shared and earned or controlled by one person. Another dimension you have to take under consideration is the emotional aspect of the relationship. Good communication amongst each other will help your relationship thrive. The power aspect of the relationship must be equally distributed. This dimension is very important because you are able to show respect towards one another and not feel inferior towards your partner. You also have sexuality, chores and leisure activities, and boundaries that you must respect when it comes to your significant other. It can be concluded that all of these different dimensions are prime examples on how difficult a relationship can
My husband is kind even when I am being a complete jerk. He never sees me as the jerk that I feel I am being. His opinion of me influences me to be kinder.
