How to Find (or Keep) a Spouse
Back in college I had a bit of a reputation -- a
reputation with the ladies. No, it's not what you
think. Because I grew up with six sisters I seemed
to know quite a bit more about women than most guys
so they would often to come to me for advice
I went to a christian university and many of the
men were older students and actually serious about
relationships. They weren't just looking for
someone to go out with, they were wanting to find a
wife.
*How will I know if a woman will be a good wife
and how do I go about finding her?* was a question
I received time and time again.
Here was my advice.
Don't use all your effort on trying to find
yourself a woman who will be a good wife. Instead,
spend almost all your time molding yourself into a
great husband. That's the hard part. Once you are a
man who will make a great husband, finding (and
keeping) a wife is much less difficult. The same
advice goes for women looking for a husband.
It was amazing to me that men who wouldn't brush
their teeth or comb their hair were frustrated that
they couldn't get women to go out with them. Guys
who had little ambition and absolutely no fashion
sense couldn't understand why God hadn't *blessed*
them with a wife. And the same goes for sour,
abrupt women who complain that either they can't
keep a man or the man they already have isn't worth
keeping.
This is not to say that if you are single it is
because you are unworthy. The point is, don't worry
too much about finding or keeping someone. Take
care of yourself. Learn to be patient and
forgiving. Read books, take courses and do all
things possible to make yourself the number one
potential husband or wife in the world. That's the
best way to find and keep a great wife or terrific
husband.
