Single Girl seeking God Fearing man?




During a deep conversation with my father, we talked about why I am still yet to find a suitable man to marry.



He seems to not to understand that dating in the 21st century is not the same as when he grew up. Things have changed, and not for the better. My dear father grew up with my mother who was friends with his younger sister. He knew my darling mother since they where very young so I guess that they where destined to be together, marry, and have 4 adorable children!!!



Anywho, after explaining to my father, in different ways might I add, that the only men who seem available to me are the type to frequent the Jeremy Kyle Show (UK version of Maury) I heard him sigh. It was this sigh that led to me becoming suddenly tearful over the phone as the parental pressure and slight guilt for not being married and providing my parents with grandchildren threatened to overcome me. Thats when my father decides to tells me that I should go to Church. I am silent. That I should look for a God fearing man. What? I am still silent. He continues, he will respect you, not drink, not smoke and he will know how to treat you.



Noticing my silence, my father asks what i think. I am speechless. I have never wanted to date a religious man, although i am a catholic and believe in God. They just seem, well boring. So I tell my dad that there is one problem with that, I do not go to church, to which he tells that there is a church in London that he knows boasts many single eligible men. I then pretend to have a pen in hand so my father thinks that I am taking down the churches name.



Putting the phone down I feel emotionally drained as I decide that I would rather be single then get myself a God fearing man, the thought alone puts the fear of God in me.
