In a brief conversation, a woman asked a man she was pursuing the question "What kind of woman are you looking for?" he sat quietly for a moment before looking her in the eye and asking, "Do you really want to know?" Reluctantly, she said "Yes." he began to expound... "As a man in this day and age, I am in a position to ask a woman what she can do for me that I can't do for myself. I pay my own bills. I take care of my household without the help of any woman...or man for that matter. I am in the position to ask, "What can you bring to the table?" The woman looked at her. Clearly she thought that he was referring to money. he quickly corrected her thought and stated, "I am not referring to money. I need something more. I need a woman who is striving for perfection in every aspect of life." sHe sat back in her chair, folded her arms, and asked him to explain. he said "I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection mentally because I need conversation and mental stimulation. I don't need a simple-minded woman. "I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection spiritually because I don't need to be unequally yoked...believers mixed with unbelievers is a recipe for disaster. "I need a woman who is striving for perfection financially because I don't need a financial burden. "I am looking for someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a man, but strong enough to keep me grounded. "I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must respect her. I cannot be submissive to a woman who isn't taking care her business. I have no problem being submissive...she just has to be worthy. "God made woman to be a help mate for man. I can't help a woman if she can't help herself." When he finished his schpiele he looked at her. sHe sat there with a puzzled look on her face. sHe said, "You are asking a lot." he replied, "I'm worth a lot.
