Your allure should be understated, Christian single woman, but approachable!
Although men are more visually stimulated than most women that does not mean that you should look seductive. As a Christian single woman your allure will be just under the surface, and he will have to get his cues from a welcoming smile, and also from the warm words you use in describing what a relationship with you will be like. In a word, a modest but open approach will win him, for he will want to savor the first moments you share, getting acquainted and growing closer to one another. There is so much more to a lasting love than physical attraction, and he will delight in becoming familiar with the wonder that is you, the complete package!
You can tell him the type of guy you are looking for, but if you are too specific and say “He must be tall, dark and handsome,” you might pass up an amazing Brad Pitt look-alike, or a handsome “follically-challenged” guy (that’s bald for those of you who don’t keep up with politically correct language.) Let him know how much your relationship with Christ means to you, and give him opportunities to reveal to you his commitment to the Lord. Do bear in mind that Christian singles run the whole spectrum of experience in walking with Jesus. Some you meet will be new to the faith, and others will be very close to the Lord. Some will have only a lukewarm relationship with God, while others are on fire for Him. As you get to know each other, see if your level of devotion is compatible and if you will enjoy the same amount of worship, prayer, and Bible study. See if each of you can grow in the faith from sharing different types of worship.
Tell him what
you do well. If you like to cook certain dishes, and if you have favorite
recipes, let him know that you understand the value of preparing meals
together (after you have begun dating.) Cooking delicious meals together
results in pleasure for the palate, and nurturing the beginning of happy
times together. Also tell him if you love to try new recipes and different
foods and if you would like to get recipes from his Mom. This, dear
Christian single, should conjure up the comfort foods of home for him, and
many heart-warming memories. You can’t go wrong with Mom and apple pie!
Tell him what you love about your life, your family, friends, church, city, and other activities. If he lives in another city, fill him in on the fascinating sights and things to do in your town. Find out what sports and recreational activities he enjoys and tell him what is available there. (This could lead to a place to meet for your first date through Cherish Mates!) Ask him questions about where he lives, and what advantages there are in living there. If you tend to be forgetful, you may want to take notes of your first e-mail, or save a copy of his reply. With these tips in mind, I want to wish you and your future husband all the joys of a happy marriage!

Hi! I'm Dave, just the guy next door. What fires up your passions? For me it is the Lord, people, travel, and the Proverbs Woman. (Below)
I love children, gardening, good books, music, and quiet romantic evenings.
I don't sweat the small stuff, and want to be myself with someone who will be herself.
My personal stats; 5'11" , Blonde, Hazel, muscular, divorced with 2 children and I share custody. I was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, and am 37 years old."Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies...She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness...Her children arise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her." Proverbs 30
You don't have to be a saint, just down to earth.
My family is very close, and there is always room for more!
Proverbs lady, please call soon.
Isn’t that inviting, a single man who loves children? I get the impression that he would welcome a wonderful Christian woman who has children too, don’t you? I should repeat, this is just a glimpse of what you can do to give a great Christian man a profile that reveals the person you are. Don’t forget, we allow you all the space you need grab the attention of the Christian single reading it. Now don’t forget the advice given for the male online dating member, ladies: Close the deal. Don’t say, “e-mail me sometime, when you get around to it.” No, in the sweetest way you can, encourage him to respond NOW! Check the suggestions in the men’s section for a way to put it so it seems natural and not too pushy. At this point you are only offering him friendship, and that should be comfortable for both of you to talk about. Naturally both of you are hoping and praying that this will lead to much more, to a grand, joyful union full of love and happiness. May our dear Lord bless you in your quest for a Christian marriage and family.
