At least, that’s what some say. There are Christians claiming that a husband is not accountable to his wife. He is accountable to God only. If she bothers to bring up any concerns to him at all, she should do it only once. If she does it in the “wrong” tone or brings it up more than once, she’s “nagging.” A husband could certainly have someone he is accountable to outside of the marriage, if...
…but he doesn’t want to be present and take care of them. Sound familiar? There are plenty people who enjoy making babies, but don’t want the responsibilities of caring for, raising their children. Those of you who are familiar with this blog know that I encourage women to guard themselves overall, including their minds and bodies. This cannot be overemphasized. This post is not a jab at single fathers or single mothers at all. Sometimes,...
Some of us ladies have had tendencies to become overly zealous when we became involved with a man. For some women, this may have taken the form of idolizing men and placing them as priority over almost everything and everyone soon after they met them. For me, it was having that person on my mind almost constantly and having very strong feelings for him early on. I was positively presumptuous. It’s good to be positive...
Ladies, … you would never knowingly become involved with a man who is already attached to someone else, would you? This is whether he is married or dating someone else. If not, that is wonderful, and that is the right thing to do. It is the right way to be. There are other ladies with different values that I encourage to stay away from men who are already attached. It is common for some women...
Okay, materialism is dangerous for anybody. However, I aim to address and push truth to the single ladies in a world where women suffer from violence and other circumstantial afflictions at a disproportionate rate. I know that idolatry is wrong, so my expectation is that if I got into materialism, it would backfire. I truly do believe to whom much is given, much is required. I know better than to place too much importance on...
After examining myself, my own motives and aiming to align my desires with the understanding of God’s plans for marriage, I decided to write this post on reasons not to get married. It is not an exhaustive list, but includes common motives for marriage. Even in our somewhat anti-marriage culture, there are still men and women who truly desire love and a successful marriage. I have spoken to some women on the topic of marriage...
This post is inspired by a conversation I was involved in recently. The conversation showed me the opinions of people who are also propagating false information based on those opinions. They are sharing false information to both men and women. It is the same false information that has been planted in the minds of people long ago. It is a double standard. People have a right to have their own views. I respect that. But...
If you are familiar with this blog, you know that I often encourage women not to settle for men who cheat, and not to put up with cheating from their boyfriends or fiances. There is a flip side to that as well. Some women cheat on their men too. Also, there are many women (mistresses) who are dealing unlawfully with married men. In addition, there are women who are dealing inappropriately and knowingly with men...
There are still people out there who show love, kindness and generosity to others. Their light seems more and more bright as the rest of the world becomes darker. We live in a world where plenty others operate out of hatred. This post will address what I am seeing around me- increasing hate against women inside and outside of the churches. For this reason, dating and relationships are more difficult than ever. Especially, for women....
No one is ready made. When someone meets the right person, that person will be flawed just like anybody else. They won’t be perfect, but are the perfect person for the one they are suited for. Healthy relationships consist of imperfect, compatible people who happen to love and respect each other. Typically, they will be attracted to each other and have a significant amount of things in common. Shared faith / core values are very...
