Next was Michelle. Here is her 2 emails. Her email addy is: [email protected]

I'm Michelle,I joined the ministry and became a missionary and was later chosen to be one of those who will be traveling abroad to minister. I'm originally from the US but lived most of my life in North America after my moms death, I'll shed more light on that as we proceed.

So this is where i will be sharing all my amazing experiences with everyone! I can't wait to dive in to this adventure i will be taking off on an 5 month mission trip around Africa! The countries i have been to are: South Africa,UK and now Nigeria. I have applied, interviewed, and have been accepted! I know that this is all God’s doing and I am accepting and saying yes to Him! My reasoning, and by no means do I think it is for everyone, is to help me become more like Christ-die to self and strip away the worldliness and get my priorities straight in this life. I want God to be able to use me to make a difference in someone’s life. This will include giving up my worldly belongings for a while and leave the distractions of this busy life behind and remember what is important. Through God I want to help the poor, heal the sick, feed the hungry, hug the lonely, and be all that he has called me to be. I have so much to give and He wants to use me to the most of my potential. As the bible says in Matthew 25:40, "The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'

I believe that a relationship rooted in the Lord is a successful one. I didn’t ever think that I would go on a dating website, I always thought I was rushing God. But I realized that God blesses us with provisions to get through our lives. Like Doctors and medicine, you wouldn't take medicine because you only trust in God, what if God’s way of healing you is through that medicine….sorry rambling on

I have been waiting for the right one, the one that God has for me. I know that he has my best interests at heart and I know whoever he has for me, I will be the happiest woman alive.I have always been a planner, I thought that I had everything planned out lol. I thought that I would be married already and maybe have a kid or two, but God is funny like that. I needed to learn that I can plan but everything happens in his timing. “A Man’s heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps “-Proverbs 16:9.

It is so remarkable how true that is.

We need to chat more on messenger i wish we could use the phones but the bad receptions here will not permit that so usually yahoo messenger and emails are the best way.

I want a 100/100 relationship and not a 50/50 or 50/100 and hopefully I'll find that on this site, My friend found love here and asked me to give it a shot so here i am lol.

There is so much more I can share but I won’t overwhelm this email.

Hope to read from you soon,

Michelle

Email #2

Hello Again ,

Wow what an interesting email, thanks for writing so much as I did enjoy reading from you. I believe the lord led this and i know he has something out there for us if you believe because i do. I'm glad to see you write again and with this i should hope you realize the importance of what i do as a missionary and will it be right to say you are interested? I also want you to know that if there're questions you asked that haven't been answered they will be answered when we get a chance to chat on yahoo messenger the reason since i have very limited time.

This is my last missionary work after which i will be totally out to settle down this is why I'm searching to settle.I will no longer travel or minister.I took my profile off when i replied your message as i did not want anyone contacting me again and i hope i did it right...I'll like you to leave me your cell number so i can try sending text messages to you through the computer...

I want you to know I'm not here to play games....I would really like to get to know you. well, i want to retire and have kids of my own with the man i will spend the rest of my life with.... Believe me I want your dreams to become reality as well. Right now I am not talking with anyone else. I look at this whole relationship thing like this...You date someone in order to get to know them. The process of the relationship moves forward until one or both decide to stop it. I am not married or have kids...

I want you to know I am taking this seriously. But this is a learning and growing process. I feel like we are moving in a good direction. I will promise you something if you will promise me this: that we will be completely honest with each other throughout this whole process. I AM interested in you.

The best reason why you should believe me?... I can tell you that lying gets you no where in a relationship. In addition, any great relationship is built on trust. Trust involves risk.. I believe to find the right person, a person has to be willing to risk knowing someone and being known by someone. The most I can tell you is this- you seem like someone that I would like to know with the intent of moving further someday..

What kind of man am I looking for? Wants? Someone who has a strong desire to walk with the Lord. Someone who is passionate about something...anything. People with passion intrigue me. Someone who has maturity that translates from their spiritual walk into their emotions and actions. Someone that is not to serious; who can laugh at a joke or themselves. Someone to share life with. Someone that gets me on a deeper level. Someone that challenges me when I need it and nurtures me when I need it.

Someone who is easy going like me. Someone that knows me, how I think, and how I will react in most situations. Someone who works for the relationship. Most couples don't get that love is a choice and you have to work at it. Someone who knows how to speak to me gently. Nagging, screaming, or manipulating has never worked with me. Someone to stand with me....to be my shield and to let me be his shield. Patience is critical. Someone who has fire in their eyes. However, for someone to become this person in my life takes time. So in the early stages: I'm looking for someone that is learn-able and teachable. Someone who is willing to learn about me and also teach me. Someone who is willing to work at real communication. That is a good starting point.

Communication:This is another important factor in a relationship,we need to communicate daily to get to know each other better since that happens to be the only means we have for now, I'd like you to assist me on that willingly as i will pay back whatever it cost when i get paid after my work here.I'm being honest and upfront and want success in this not letting communication be an obstacle. It cost $820 for a laptop and internet that way we can talk daily until I'm done here....Please i will need your help and i hope you won't be taking this personal. I sincerely mean well in this.

Don't wants? Drama that results in guilt. I don't want I dictator because I am not a dictator. I believe in team. I do not want someone that is emotionally unstable. I need to be able to trust you with my feelings. I don't want someone who can't keep control of their words. My love language is words of affirmation (the others are quality time, gifts, physical touch.....everyone has one or two that they really desire- which one is yours?) Don't want a quitter.

Likes? . I like to host people in my home. And I like to keep a neat home.......I like to travel. I look forward to marriage so I can slow down and pour my life into someone else that will pour back into me.I love the outdoors.ski and snowboard, Fishing, hiking, camping, and anything else outside. I love doing yard work and landscaping around the house. I love the beach (it is really romantic) but I prefer to hang out at a pool that is close to the beach. I love to read. And not to sound to spiritual... I really enjoy studying and teaching the Bible.

My absolute passion is to help people understand God and the spiritual life. Cuddling, kissing, random acts of kindness, giving, respect and consideration are great.

Dislikes? Clutter, high maintenance women, German and Thai food (by the way I like just about every other kind of food), redoing people's work after it should have been done right the first time, to much business and not enough down time, arguing (yuk..."arguing is the exchange of ignorance"- cool quote). Wasting time. I have more likes than dislikes.

Kids? Absolutely. How many? Hopefully at least one of each.

Long term? Yes I want to be married as soon as I find the right person. Loneliness stinks sometimes.

I feel like we are on the same page and moving in a good direction. I hope my long, wordy emails are proof to you.

I am looking for something real not an act. I want you to be comfortable with me. Please be exactly who you are.....I'm just trying to get to know you.

Please kindly send me a reply with your likes and dislikes just as i have done and i also will like to know every thing you think i should know about you .I hope you have a wonderful day today! Hope to read from you real soon...

With so much regards,

Michelle
