lol - don't forget to put your hair in a bun and sit on the other side of the church too!
nodeal - i really don't want my master's or phd but do want to start taking some bible classes either online or in another setting. i would hope they might want to take them alongside me :) if they would feel intimidated than i'd want to work with them and understand why.

If their reason is it would intimidate them then NO DEAL.........If they are opposed to more education because it would take me away from family time I would forgo the education. Getting a PhD is a huge time commitment and should only be attempted if both husband and wife are willing to make the sacrifice.

deal. It's important to take your time while eating. In the first place it's healthier for you and in the second place it's much more enjoyable.
DOND: The flip side. They eat quickly, Nothing that hits the plate has a chance of getting cold. Insects that land just end up being extra protein, hands feet and small children must be kept away from moving parts. Don't blink or you'll miss the whole meal

Edit: This doesn't necessarily imply modern. It means that the layout won't be like the typical house that you see in subdivisions.

Or the upstairs bathroom might be centered on the second floor with the rooms radiating out from it. Or the house will have several secret rooms.

Though not my preference it would be a deal as long as he was willing to sit at the table with the children and I for the rest of the meal.

I can't say no deal but the idea is not too appealing to me. I would much rather take an old farm house and convert it in a way which would utilize space more practically and be greener.
DOND....You want to build a new house where he/she prefers fixing up a house with history and character.

Deal for either. We'd decide which route to take together. I've always wanted to design and build a house but fixing one up sounds like fun, too. As long as my family creates the history and character of the house, I'd be happy.
DOND: Doesn't think too technically and therefore doesn't remember specifics and technical information very well.

Not only deal but "OH baby what a deal". I've already got some plans drawn up. Only one secret room but two secret staircases. Two floor library/billiards room. I'll have to dig them out an dupdate them.
The only thing I'm waiting on is the money to do it.
quote:
DOND....You want to build a new house where he/she prefers fixing up a house with history and character.
I can go either way on this so I'll say deal. But I'd have to be able to pay someone else to do most of the fixing up. I've been remodelling for 18 years. It does get old eventually

It's impossible to be a socialist and a Christian. Socialism violates biblical principle. It's impossible to be a feminist (as defined in the 60's through today) and be a Christian as modern feminism violates biblical principle.
NO deal.

Deal - I have no problems with that - although a giggling and blushing 40+ year old man would be quite a sight to behold.
quote:
DOND: He/She prefers Yanni while you prefer Skillet. (music wise that is)
Deal: I've only heard of skillet but don't know anything about their music, but I'd have to say deal. I've heard Yanni's stuff. I don't particularly like it, but to each its own. I have such a broad taste musically, that I'm 100% sure that he won't like every bit of my Dewa (Indonesian rock band), Kathleen Battle (classical singer with a gorgeous voice), Israel and New Breed (gospel music band), Edie Brickell (minus the bohemians) eclectic tastes. To be honest, I will just be estatic that he doesn't require that I only listen to Christian music exclusively because if I did I would probably give up music altogether - or actually - maybe we wouldn't be married if he felt very strongly about it.
I gave up listening to music for a while years ago when people kept telling me that all secular music was satanic. Of course today, I recognize that this idea is legalistic. When I hear music, I listen to the structure of the song, chord progressions, instrumentation, arrangement, vocals (if they exist), and lyrical content (if it exists). The actual style (rock, gospel, country, etc.) is irrelevant. To me the style is kind of like choosing a font. You don't hate what a document says because you don't like the font. But the choice of font (and size) might make the document easier to read.
Because I listen this way, it is very easy for me to hear when musicians quote one another - or if someone has had the same musical idea as another - or has lock-stock-and-barrel "borrowed" a song from another person but added new words (which is my pet peeve). So I can listen to 100 songs and recognize that there are maybe 5 or at most 10 original ideas (there are usually 1 or 2 in an average CD - sometimes 0). So, rather than be bored, I found myself simply not listening to music created by others, although I still sang to myself most of the time. Now, I listen to a lot of different types of music, although if the lyrical content of a song is immoral - or if there is something spiritually disturbing about the song - I will not listen to it - even if the lyrics are clean.

Ben and Jerry are big liberals. They stand for almost everything Christianity stands against. I will not support them. I'd gladly run our and get her any ice cream she wants, but nothing from them.

No deal. I'd love to adopt after my own kids are older. But first I need to have my own kids.

No deal. Designer usually just means they take the Walmart quality stuff, slap a name on it and charge you 5 times more. I'm allfor getting quality clothes, but get them sensibly.
DOND: (inspired by a thread on he says) Ladies, He wants you to wear a bikini (normal, not string or thong) on the beach. Men, she prefers to wear a bikini on the beach.

I tried this at lunch today. Took about three bites before practically needing the Heimlich Maneuver. I strongly doubt that someone can have good manners and eat this way. Probably too difficult for me to accept.

This would be ok, as long as they didn't get upset if I occasionally ate something different.

Depends - if by losing it you mean becomes violent - then ABSOLUTELY NO DEAL. But otherwise deal. I would rather have someone who loses it every once in a while than someone who just lets things festers and gives you the silent treatment.

Deal. I don't mind someone being protective of me as long as we can talk about and negotiate some of the things he might not want me to do. I don't think I could handle a person who wants to put a lot of restrictions on me though (don't go here, don't wear this, don't do this) - a few - ok. But I don't think I'd mesh well with someone who didn't let me be free.

I don't eat it that often but it is my very favorite ice cream. I am very sorry to hear this. Does anyone else make Cherry Garcia? I thought B&J Made it up.
