an adendum to Frustrated singleness

Ok..Church pool?...I am at the wrong church for that...no dating pool for me there, either way too young or way too old...I have heard of great singles departments that are full of singles my age at other churches in the area..sounds great right? It would be but I am not willing to leave my church...I feel blessed to be under Matts teaching and I am just not willing to leave, especially for that reason... I am not sure if I am more frustrated by the lack of intelligence that seems to be out there or by the fact that I am apparently way too smart. Don't roll your eyes just yet, I am really really smart and alot of times that is a hinderance. Especially in dating... I am not talking about spelling or mathematical genius here but I am talking just about being on the ball, a decent conversationalist, seeing the depth of person pretty quickly, picking up on the little things. I want someone who can hang with me. It is so hard to find because usually those guys are in a different "class" and pretty much out of my league. I am just speaking the facts here! I am deeply deeply frustrated. I see really stupid HAPPY people all the time. They are everywhere. " Ignorance is bliss" or is it??? Would I rather look at someone blindly and accept them for what they "appear" to be and be happy or look at someone with skepticism and dig for what they are not saying and search for the depth or lack of and continue to be disappointed when I don't find what I am looking for, and feeling even more frustrated because I wasted my time trying to find something that was just not there to begin with. I don't know. Anyway...that is where I am right now. So I keep praying for my hearts desire but did God create anyone who fits that bill?? I mean realistically...maybe not. I am not sure where I stand on that...so I keep praying for what may or may not be realistic, maybe I am the stupid one??? We will see. L.

Frustrated singleness

Ok, So I spent all of last night breaking up with a man I never met. He seemed so perfect on the internet that I gave him my number and he blew my phone up. Meaning, he called way too much, overused the word beautiful and gorgeous, texted exactly 27 times in one night and needless to say it's over before it got started.

I'm frustrated.

Where is my dating pool? Where are the men that I can date? for me? I want someone that is semi intelligent, a man that loves Jesus, have their tattoos spelled correctly, eyes and teeth straight, no baby momma drama, no fixer uppers, no people with 65K worth of credit card debt...basically, I'm not asking for something that is unrealistic but holy crap!?!

Give me something to choose from? or please direct me to the nearest dating pool for me. Please? Lord, help?!!

I am BACK!!!

Hey everyone I am back and I cannot wait to share with you about my trip, alot of what I want to share will have to be in person, due to its sensitive nature...I will be posting pics but they will have to wait a few days as they are being put on a cd. I can tell you it was AMAZING...God is moving and shaking in that place. I was able to be a part of something that will last for eternity. I am so humbled and thankful for what He has shown me through this journey. I will write more in depth later, just know that your prayers were felt, needed and much appreciated!!I love you all and I am glad to be home. I am going to take a nap. Jetlag...uuughh.
