Just because one is confident in Christ that doesn't mean the opposite sex should stop complimenting. If I'm married or dating, I don't stop telling my wife/girlfriend how much I love her. Or how beautiful she is. Or how smart she is. Just like she doesn't stop saying how much she appreciates me. This is a huge reason why people cheat. Because one person stops feeling loved. And part of not feeling loved is when your spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend stops showing you love.

yes it is a maturity issue. I haven't dated much but it seems the few i have dated seem to have an issue with my height, my weight, my faith or my stance with God. I could explain but i don't care to much. Lets just say ive had issues. Plus the fact generally maturity comes with life lessons and age. My life has been rough and i need someone that can love me , not because the way i look but someone that has the strength by God to stand by me through ups and downs.
Yes people shouldn't cheat. But look how many people do, including Christians. Look how many husbands and wives fail to live up to their role in marriage, and then divorce ultimately happens. Of course it's wrong and people don't work harder like they should. But at the end of the day, women constantly need to feel loved. Men need to constantly feel respected.

Oh my goodness. I know this. I never said that they shouldn't show their love/respect. My original comment was a joke to Maxel and wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I think you need to let it go.
And yeah, perhaps this thread was done before but I didn't know about it. Am I seriously expected to know about every single thread that pops up on here?

I have dated much younger than me 17 years ( I was unaware he was that young and was 2 years in relationship before I saw the ID) and it was a great relationship (ended when he developed an addiction another 2 years later and I couldn't get him away from the cards for anything). First I look no where near my age, so younger men are always hitting on me ( I totally check ID now). Second the younger ones tend to not mind my adventurous side. And if they do, they are secure enough to come with me and watch me hang glide or dive out of an airplane. The also do not mind that I cannot give every second to them, as a solo parent it's hard to see someone daily and spend enormous amount of time with them. Last guy I dated was 2 years older than me (Looking through my dating years that is the average on older men 2 to 3 years older) When I date the older men they cannot handle my adventurous side and always state ...you're crazy...you will kill yourself....blah...blah..blah. They also cannot handle if I am more successful then them and always have a massive jealous issue towards my kids. Their idea of a fun date is dinner and a movie. That is okay now and then, however I would rather go to a ball game, picnic on the beach, LARP, amusement park, etc.....things that involve actual fun interaction. The older men or that in of my age group are highly set in their ways and carry a lot of baggage. If I am going to take the time to date. I want to have fun, not be bored. I haven't dated in some time now, because one thing I have learned is that I am letting GOD lead me. SO the first question now is... are you a christian? I get no or well I believe. I have been there and done that. When it is all said and done. I do not worry about age at all. I look for a christian, sense of humor, intellect, kindness and fun person. So if I am never lead to someone, no problem. I like myself and often take myself out. Yes I am not phased having a dinner by myself, much less anything else. If you can't love your self and the time with yourself, you cannot love someone else.
