Blessed Posted December 1, 2003 ^^^ Yeah, but you make sound like a person is putting away their list of wants because they have no choice but settle for less. I personaly think that those lists serve as a guideline and help you creat boundries for yourself. For example, I would never settle with a non-muslim - which is always on tope of my list - so I wouldn't entertain the notion of acquainting a non-muslim. I mean there are the fundamentals (which are unnagotioable) and other qualities which would be nice but not absolute. Intrestingly enough, people have ideas about good looking etc... but in teh end you get attracted to the person as whole - and not the different parts of them. N-STar lol. good luck- actually your list isnt that unrealistic! But you can be asking 4 trouble when looking 4 a 'funny, beautiful cook' - not enough for good mother and wife in my opinion. But Good Luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted December 1, 2003 Caakifah...I think you're right! -- Teeda kale, people have lists up their sleeves. Aniga I don't. Having a list isn't in my list I have dreams instead. And the one for me, will present herself in those dreams...did presented herself already? Could be. People's lists are content with aspects that they feel somewhat insecure of.

N.O.R.F Posted December 1, 2003 Ameenah "But you can be asking 4 trouble when looking 4 a 'funny, beautiful cook' - not enough for good mother and wife in my opinion." Who said anything about a wife? was thinking more along the lines of a pit stop, recharge the batteries then gooooooo, lol, joke!! (before the haters start scheming) The list has been amended to include: * Good with x amount kids, ia * General top qualities, (many) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
QUANTUM LEAP Posted December 1, 2003 Well everyone has qualities they like about another n that’s what makes us human. Ameenah walalo I can guarantee when that biological clock starts ticking hmmm anything is possible. I have seen a few dead gorgeous ladies in their infancy being extremely untouchable but at the end of the day and for their standards, they go for people who you wouldn’t otherwise think where her type. Believe me today we do have many ladies who crossed barriers of even having kids with non-Muslims let alone getting married. So sometimes one needs to know what they want in life while they still can fire at full force and there is this saying in Swahili that goes..”VUMJA MIFUPA KAMA MENO BADO IKO” In layman’s terms it means break the bones while you still got teeth. A good sense of humour helps in both bad and good times...great quality N-Star – Lool “- Who said anything about a wife? was thinking more along the lines of a pit stop, recharge the batteries then gooooooo” You sure know how to live mister… Sophist – Bro Xaal qadho….camels will be delivered as per arrangement… Jamaal – Do Istikhara prayers and say 'Oh Allah, I ask for proper guidance from You through Your Knowledge, and I ask for power from Your Power, and I seek goodness from your Grace, for You are Able and I am not, and You Know and I don't, and You are the Knowledgeable about the Unknown, O Allah, If You knew that this matter is good to me for my religion and my affairs, then make it happen, and if You Knew that it is bad to be for my religion and my affairs, then keep it away from me and keep me away from it, and make goodness for me wherever it is and make me satisfied with it' And surely all you need will just arrive.

On a serious note, why settle? marriage is considered to be a life time commitment, so if you're going to take that leap make sure is someone who has atleast a quality you appreciate, else you're setting yourself up for a mousetrap .
