DOND: They travel a lot, to Hawaii and Japan and the coasts.

Deal. I grew up moving around a lot and I love to travel - I would love to be able to share that experience with my own kids.

quote:

DOND: Their parents are divorced and not on good terms, so you have to squeeze in trips to both parents homes on holidays.....not to mention trying to get together with your own family.


Deal. I wouldn't have a problem with this.

quote:

DOND: They come from a different culture than you.

Deal. My parents have been able to weather cultural differences without a problem. My father is super easy going and very accepting when it comes to different cultures - I've never met anyone who has been more open. He is a role model to me in that area. I think it just takes being flexible and understanding. I do think however, that there has to be some similarities though in terms of life experience. It would help if our cultures also shared some similarities in key areas.

DOND: They are a believer, but not on the same page with you spiritually.

Deal. This can be worked out easily. We're all adults.

DOND: If she/he's filed for bankruptcy just to get away from paying his loan, and a few years later, his/her credit card is maxed out again.

Deal if I get to go occasionally ......And we get to travel other places as well for pleasure.

I can't believe I am going to say this because my family is very close and the thought of not spending Christmas with them is a heart wrenching thought at the moment but it would a NO deal..........holiday's are important to me and I do not want spend them squeezing in people so that no one is hurt they were left out.......I want holidays to be a time of building traditions with my husband and children........running all over from home to home, as some of my friends do, is not a tradition I want to establish with my children. If visiting a grandparent allows us to have a relaxed, peaceful holiday then we will do it but if it means spending two hours at each person's house and rushing to get here or there we will stay at home.

quote:

DOND: They come from a different culture than you.

This is a hard one........the girls father is from Kenya and though not all, some of the problems they have are very much cultural differences, then on the other hand my aunt is Brazilian and her marriage to my uncle has grown stronger because they were forced to overcome cultural differences.......I would say a higher percentage of those I know who marry from a difference culture are marrying into a lot more then what they anticipated..........all this to say I really don't know.......a long period of dating including quite a bit of exposure to his culture would be very important to me.

quote:

DOND: They are a believer, but not on the same page with you spiritually
.Before this past year I would have said as long as he loved the Lord with all his heart, and the Lord was lord of his life then difference in certain beliefs would not matter........but now I know I can not marry anyone who is not building his spiritual house under open heavens.........

This past year not only has God showed me very clearly the man He wants me to marry will come along side me worshiping the Lord under open heaves in action,words, and heart........but he has also showed me what it would be like to be with someone who does not believe things which are important to my walk with the Lord.

For example this past year a gentleman I consider a friend, with whom I shared a lot of the things God says to me, I found out does not believe God speaks to me ......with a friend it is fine.........but not with a husband.......I could not marry a man who does not believe, when I share God said this or that to me, that God actually speaks to me.

As long as he can respect my beliefs and experiences, then, I'd say deal. As long as he's not belittling me, or mocking me, because I'm experiencing something and he isn't, then, I'd say, I'm good. I don't have too many deal breakers. Like I always said, relationships are always about negotiating and respecting our differences. Now, if I can't accept that he doesn't believe me, then, it's probably going to be a deal breaker becausae I'll end up trying to change his beliefs, which is a deal breaker for me.

No deal on the bankruptcy and on the God speaking to me.

Oh, good heavens, no deal....lol. I mean, I like watching those stuff, but sigh, that isn't a life I'd want to lead--always looking over your shoulder, checking the locks, carrying a weapon for self defense....yikes...I won't do it ...not for love nor money. I like excitement and adventure, but not that kind.

This John_O thread is a discussion of what would break the deal for you.

Assume your intended is perfect EXCEPT for the questioned characteristic, would that break the deal for you. Please also explain why. This will help us to know each other better as well to have a better understanding of what we are looking for in a mate.

I (John_O) took the last question from the closed thread as a logical starting point.

1. DOND: Has to deal with the impending deaths of immediate family within the upcoming year.
2. DOND: Someone who places God before you, in church every time the door is open.
3. DOND: They work as a forums administrator and somehow manage to irritate 1/2 of the population no matter what they do
4. DOND: Did not want biological children.
5. DOND: Hates to do laundry.
6. DOND: Wanted to adopt children.
7. Purchase or Keep Lookin'?: Only wants to live in one geographic region.
8. DOND: He/She is healthy, but has a family gene that means they would very likely produce children with a major disability (i.e. Downs Syndrome, Sickle Cell Anemia, etc.) (This came up in a conversation with a co-worker today and I immediately thought "what a perfect DOND question. )
9. DOND: has an uncanny ability to start threads that are all but instantly closed.
10. DOND.....only wants a spouce with long hair?
11. He and his friends had Lan parties on a regular basis... DOND?

14. DOND: He/she issues empty threats on occasion.
15. DOND: He/She is addicted to a TV show you hate.
16. I have run out of creative siggies. Please make up your own and give the credit to me. Got it, Buddy? DOND. (I made this up. Kuku forgot to post one).
17. DOND: They are unsatisfied (but very secure) at their job
18. DOND: Silly Putty is something they keep in large quantities.
19. DOND: they are a wealth of trivial knowledge. (Picture Cliff Claven on Cheers but better looking)
20. YES OR NO: Outside of the basic precept of WHO God is, they don't have a lot of black and white areas in their life (including all aspects . . . Spiritual, Political, etc.)
21. DOND: Is trying to pay off an extremely large debt
22. DOND: He/She has a job where they put their life on the line every day.
23. DOND: Someone who is critical.

25. DOND: Someone with a mental illness (i.e bipolar)
26. DEFINITELY -or- NOT IN A MILLION YEARS: He / she has very opposite political opinions than you do.
27. STAY -or- GO: While he / she is a devout Christian that has a deeply spiritual relationship with Our Lord, some of y'all's "dogmas" don't agree.
28. DOND: You don't get along with his/her parents.
29. OK -or- NOT: He / she doesn't have any family relationships.
30. His/Her favorite music in the morning is Polka.
31. Ante Up or Fold? The person likes to go to fan conventions dressed in costume.
32. Save -or- Delete: They are true, absolute rivals of your most very favorite sports team.

36. Go or No Go: There favorite type of music is Punk-Polka.
37. DOND: They are incredibly nostalgic
38. Deal or No Deal: You love them in every way, except, He/She is a forum's administrator who keeps shutting down really cool threads for reasons that don't make sense to you.
39. DOND: While they are friendly to everyone, they have very few friends
40. Keep or Release: They have periods of time where they need to be alone to process a difficult emotion before they can talk about it with others.

45. DOND: They shun all modern appliances, including dishwashers (not me!! just a question
46. DOND: They have a consuming dream of becomming a professional athlete, even though they have slim to no chance at it.
47. dond: They are a professional athlete!


Alrighty, that's the end of the DONDS and such to end of page 2. Maybe I missed one or two. One or two were missed. Probably one or two should have been missed. I think I'll number them. I don't know what an engineer would do on this. There's no rules for joining in late, so I'll just pick and choose.

1. deal, our happiness may help ease their pain
2. deal on God first, in church sounds like inside a building, church could also be one's church family, or in a state of worship all the time. More specifics on part B.
3. sounds like a great income! deal!
4. Um... they do not want them? Sounds like they've got them anyway. Would have to understand present thinking. If they have them now and don't want them, then no deal.
5. This, sandwiched between 4 and 6... kids are going to generate Lots of pieces of small clothes, and they will be dirty. No answer without knowing 4 or 6.
8. Builds on 4 or 6, and then there's 5 in there. Reminds me of that book about waffles and spaghetti. Lots getting all interwoven here.
9. deal, lots more to life than posting threads (but if posting could draw a salary...)
10. even at Christmas? All I want for Christmas is a spouse with long hari... . No deal. She's only got to have a lot more going for her than personal hygeine.
11. NO DEAL. N/A.
14. empty threats- no deal. The only threats I want to hear are substantial threats to some playful wrestling, tickle fighting, and such, and if brought up better be in all seriousness.
15. TV shows, now you see them, now you don't. Deal, unless the TV becomes the reason for existence in life. That's good thing to research before intended becomes the one. So tell me there, darlin', got TV addictions? Come on now, be honest.
16. Bid bid bid till I win deal! An intended that forgets or remembers to forget has half of the moving on process mastered! Add forgiveness to that, and there's a pearl of more than I could buy right now.
20. They really don't. Wow. Sometimes it could just be a choice not to share, but to share that with someone else. Deal! What honesty. Especially if they want to have such.
22. Deal. Road traffic is getting pretty nasty out there. How protective can anyone be?
23. Fills my cup with criticism? Or is critical in a good way? Criticism is not a fruit of the spirit. I'd have to ask her about her criticality.
28. I don't get along with the in-laws. Sounds like a personal issue my intended would help me on. If I stubbornly refused to think of changing my ways, there'd likely be no deal to consider.
31. Fan convo dressed in costume. Is she into reinactments too? Like civil war fights and such? Is her costume dry-clean only? Numbers 4, 6, and 5, weigh heavily on this one. But it's only about 31. Well, what's she involved in, and how conservative that costume is, he wondered.
34. Having bought his house, she and I are not constained as to what we'll do to that eyesore.

That's 18 of them answered fairly well. I'm going to post a few to see if I can make up for my total absence.

DOND: driving skills make you yearn for a brake pedal on the passenger floorboard.

DOND: loves anchovies and extra cheese on pizza and tells you that you are missing out by not eating any time after time

DOND: insists there's still another 50 miles on the empty gas tank

DOND: always claims to forget the one important item on the groery list- forgotten at the house on departure

I do, I don't: always complains of tiredness and does nothing about it

yes, no: brings work home from the office occasionally

sure, uhuh: residence is always immaculately clean

dond: orders the same foods whenever out on a date

dond: you can count on doing all the planning for any activity with her/him, it is always whatever, or whatever you want to do, even when it should be the other way around.

Their driving skills couldn't be any worse than my high school bus driver's *shudders* so, Deal!

I would probably try the pizza at least once, hey, who knows, it might actually be good! Deal!

The insisting we can go on the empty gas tank, not cool! If he didn't correct that, we could have

some major problems! But, I wouldn't not marry him over that!

How can I be mad at him for doing something I always do, forget the list! Still a Deal!

I would want him to try to do something about his tiredness, that one could pose a problem, I

hate whiners, it could make it a no deal!

Yeah, no work home from the office unless totally needed. Not a big problem, but would rather he didn't have to.

Awesome if his residence is always clean, maybe he could teach me to be more that way! And

besides, if it's always clean, that means he likes to do the dishes! So, that would be a DEAL!!

As long as it's him eating it and not me, he can order whatever food he likes! And give me a

bite so I know why he always orders it!

I want him to plan what we do part of the time, I want to know that he is going to be a good

leader, and takes initiative to get things done, this one would be a deal-breaker for me!

Okay, so here's a couple of mine-

yes, no - takes more time getting ready in the morning than you.

DOND - Is super shy and takes a while to warm up to new people.

time taking in the morning- well, if she wants it, np. deal.

Super shy and cool to the new people- again, np. deal.



DOND- must always have a source of sound in the background.

dond- always the store brand condiments at cookout time.

dond- refuses to give up the passing lane when driving

take it, leave it- competes in the eat the most contests every year in the tri-county area

dond- loves to shop others curbs, not dumpsters, but curbs, for things and then herald the stuff as treasure

dond- really dislikes holding hands

dond- asks questions like are you going out or staying home tonight? where the answer is already 'known' or inconceivable.

Whoa, these long lists are a little overwhelming! I think I'm just going to do one for now:

quote:

DOND - Is super shy and takes a while to warm up to new people.

Deal, as I'm the same way. However, if he's a little shy, is he going to be able to ask me out? I would hope so.

DOND: Has ADHD and can't seem to finish one task before going on to another... easily distracted... takes forever, seemlingly, to get things done.

Deal. That's kind of the condition I'm in anyway. But since my folks are so far from here I spend most holidays here in town. I sometimes make it home for Independence Day or Thanksgiving though. Fortunately the folks can stomach each other for a few hours at a time.

quote:

DOND: They come from a different culture than you.

Depends on the culture. Since we'd both be Christian there shouldn't be any great differences I'd think though.

quote:

DOND: They are a believer, but not on the same page with you spiritually.


Probably deal. Also depends how many chapters away they are and if they are further along than I or lagging behind. I have no problem teaching and encouraging, or learning and being encouraged for that matter. I think goal and calling compatibility is more crucial than maturity level is.

quote:

DOND: If she/he's filed for bankruptcy just to get away from paying his loan, and a few years later, his/her credit card is maxed out again.


No deal. Most people who file bankruptcy these days do it as legallized theft. If they are abusing credit cards after filing then they either didn't learn from the experience (and are thus unteachable) or they were dishonest during the filing. Either one is a huge red flag


quote:

NOND: H/she does not believe God speaks to you because the way God speaks to you is different then how he speaks to Him/her


No deal. God has the freedom to communicate with people however He chooses.


quote:

DOND: Loves the Three Stooges.


Doesn't everboddy? Deal.



quote:

DOND: Is in the Federal Witness Protection Program.


If so I'd never know about it, plus getting married to me would help her hide better. Deal.


quote:

DOND: driving skills make you yearn for a brake pedal on the passenger floorboard.


Deal. I'd probably be doing most of the driving anyway. And I trust God to keep me safe when I'm not.

quote:

DOND: loves anchovies and extra cheese on pizza and tells you that you are missing out by not eating any time after time


Deal. If she has no problem with the way I eat pizza, I'll have no problem with how she eats. As long as she doesn't wnat peppers on it. We'd have to order separate pizzas if so.

quote:

DOND: insists there's still another 50 miles on the empty gas tank


Deal. It's my job to insure that the tank is full when we start and that we have enough to get us there. So even if she insists we have enough, I'll be stopping to get gas at the 1/4 tank mark or sooner.

quote:

DOND: always claims to forget the one important item on the groery list- forgotten at the house on departure


Deal. I do the same. That's what second trips are for.

quote:

I do, I don't: always complains of tiredness and does nothing about it


No deal. If there's a problem, fix it. If it's not worth fixing, stop whining about it.

quote:

yes, no: brings work home from the office occasionally


Deal. Although I'd expect it would be very infrequent.

quote:

sure, uhuh: residence is always immaculately clean


Yeah baby!! I'll even help!

quote:

dond: orders the same foods whenever out on a date


Deal. That's me.

quote:

dond: you can count on doing all the planning for any activity with her/him, it is always whatever, or whatever you want to do, even when it should be the other way around.


No deal. See the "bark like a baboon" girl from "Coming to America". I dated her. No fun at all.

quote:

yes, no - takes more time getting ready in the morning than you.


Deal. I'd expect her to.

quote:

DOND - Is super shy and takes a while to warm up to new people.


Deal. As long as she's plenty warm for me.

quote:

DOND: Has ADHD and can't seem to finish one task before going on to another... easily distracted... takes forever, seemlingly, to get things done.


Probably no deal. I don't do well with mental disorders or difficulties at this point in my life.


DOND: Has the incredibly annoying habit of thinking they are always right, and usually are.

No deal! I cannot stand it when people do that!! It is one of the only things that really aggitates

dond- really dislikes holding hands


Once again, no deal! Because, I love holding hands, that is one of the very best parts of liking

someone...you get to walk around holding their hand...*smiles*

dond- asks questions like are you going out or staying home tonight? where the answer

Wouldn't be a deal breaker, but I would have to ask that he stopped doing it...

I can honestly say it would be a no deal, one guy who I really liked at one time had this flaw,

which is one of the main reasons we didn't end up dating each other...yeah...I don't do very well

with being wrong...if you haven't noticed...


Okay my next two-

DOND- Will only listen to one kind of music and it is the only kind of music that grinds on your

nerves, and insists that you listen to it also...

DOND- Is overly possesive of you, wants to know where you are at ALL times

Absolutely not! I'll be pulling out the "power & control wheel" and giving him a lesson... before showing him the door.

No deal. No (c)rap for this boy.

No deal. If she can't trust me enough to be relaxed we'll never make it.

I'd much rather stay home and take care of the house. Alas I was born a man so it's my job to fight the world and make a living. So if she's rich enough that we can keep me at home, Deal!!


DOND: They are rich, very rich, but still demand that you earn your own way and split bills in half.

You are too funny! And didn't you mean RAP...LOL! I don't like it much either, with the

exception of TobyMac, B.Reith, and Manafest, and only a few songs of theirs.

It would be not be a deal if they were very reach and still demanded I work, because, I want to

have kids and stay home and raise them if God blesses me with a way to do that...so that would

definitely be a deal breaker!

DOND: They want you to always have the house spotless...so spotless that you could eat off the floor...

You can eat off my floor. There's walnuts, a grape, bread crumbs, pasta..... Ok, I'm kidding... I do keep the house a little cleaner than that. But not spotless. No deal... I don't live to clean my house.

DOND: Guys: She's better at home and car repairs than you are. Ladies: He's a better housekeeper than you are.

Definitely a DEAL! I'll learn how to fix the car! I hate cleaning house.


DOND: Wants to do EVERYTHING as a couple, even when you want to do things with friends. (such as going shopping WITH you and your friends...)

No deal. I earn enough that we could afford plates and furniture.

I have a second cousin (once removed) who was like that. Plastic on the furniture, runners on teh carpet etc. Her children lived in hell. A house should eb clean but it should also be a home. Homes get messy sometimes.

Deal. If she's better at home repairs than I am she'd have to be a professional contractor and making pretty good money at it.

No deal. I don't mind her doing my stuff iwth me, but there's no way I'm going shoe shopping with her and her friends



DOND: They love taking long walks in the autumn leaves, at night.

I know how to cure that... Victoria's Secret (honey, will you hold this for me?); Babies R Us (talk about all the upcoming baby showers and 2-year-old potty training problems); home decorating stores with lots and lots of lace; followed by lunch at a Victorian Tea Room, etc. Oh, and go to the department store, try on three perfumes and make sure he is totally immersed in scent; then try on five different outfits, getting approval on at least two or three, then buy nothing. Next weekend, enjoy a leisurely stroll with your friends.

DOND: The above scenario doesn't work, and he drags you along for more of the same the following weekend.

That would so be a DEAL!!! I love doing that too, so we would get along perfectly fine.

DOND: They want to have lots of pets, in fact, they take in every stray that comes along.

DEAL! Especially if it means the honey-do lists are shorter because she enjoys fixing things herself. ;)

Deal - even if we didn't want all of them living with us, we could find homes for them.

DOND: They tend to drive a bit on the fast side.

Deal, provided they don't drive dangerously stupid.

DOND: Your SO isn't as smart or well educated as you and doesn't really care to go back to school. Everything else is "perfect" about them.
