Those silly mind games girls play on Dating siteS!

Paul

Dating and online relationship!

I’ve been having a little success at the so called online dating sites such as Christian Mingle and Perfect Match (those scary Affiliate links).  Sites that work well for looking for a long term relationship for those who just don’t have alot of time to go to bar scenes or go out every night just to find someone.  I am not here to review these sites in truthfulness, I am here to talk about those silly mind games people play on these sites.

The silent treatment!

This one is one of those that usually the thing that most people do to be polite and say they aren’t interested or because they want to play hard to get.   It is something that usually young people usually do but that doesn’t mean older guys or girls will not do this just to feel like they have the power.   I am sure this has happened to most guys or even girls out trying to find that special relationship.

Flirting but nothing more!

I am probably either been a victim of this or have done it in the past.   Sometimes we flirt just to be a little selfish and I do know.  In the past, I did it for the excitation of seeing who is interested and wanting to test the waters sort of speak.  I however have learned that when women do it when they have a boyfriend, it is a very bad sign to interfere with a couple.  You really should just walk away and wait till they break up or find someone else.

No rules!

Women and some men think there is a rules to dating.   Such as you can’t call them immediately after getting their number.   This to some women who think they may come off clingy or to desperate, is the main reason I don’t understand them.   I for one mean what I say and say what I mean.   If I tell you are beautiful and I love your eyes, that my friend is truth.   You best advice is to just throw those silly rules out he window and try to do it the right way!

Quit over Analyzing!

This one usually applies just to women but I am sure some guys sometimes over analyze what a girl said or did and you are trying to figure out what it actually means.   If you have a question then it is just simpler to ask him or her what they meant from that comment or question.   You will be much more open to finding that special someone when you don’t over think it!

These are what I’ve tried to do and not play those mind games that most people do because they are testing the waters.   I am not here to test waters but to find that special someone!

Look back at the past: Friday!

Looking back is always good to do!

Having had a really unusual past, I do sometimes wonder if you could look back at your past. What would you do differently or would you do anything differently?  We’ve all had our little problems in the past and not to mention having to deal with stress along the way.   Everything we do weather it be going to work to family problems can cause regrets and even me being a blogger get those questions that we can’t really answer.   Although answering the question isn’t really the point it is the part of the journey of discovery, as some would say.   We can always come up with excuses to why we do things we do but until we accept our past and say I forgive myself then we may never see the future or get the future that we may want or need.

I’m not saying that we should air our dirty laundry per say but to see it in a different light.   We can learn from our mistakes and make something good come from it.    Sometimes though people often don’t learn from their past mistakes but those are people who refuse to be truthful with themselves.   We really can’t help those who don’t want to help themselves, but we can help ourselves help others.   A few weeks ago I did a blog post, Pay it forward: Friday, and this time we are taking a time to look at our past and admit to ourselves that we may need a little more help then we really would like to admit.   I must admit this blog post was brought on by two different posts, one was Dolphin Tales and the other one was “Unchain the Name” blog post.   I want to discuss some of what I am feeling in this blog post.

Are you Second?

I’ve really been think about my priorities this month and why I haven’t been successful like I know God wants me to be.   I finally realized that I haven’t really put God first and I’ve decided in the coming months to work on making my blog more friendly to Christians.  I’m going to start calling myself a Christian Tech blogger, but I am not sure how you would classify it.   I’ve seen some people talking about that same topic but can we actually define it or do we need to come up with something really new.

Our Past defines us!

Now we all have some kind of past that really has impacted us somewhere or somehow.   It really has been something of a working struggle to define my past.   I’ve got so many things that I have yet to forgive myself over that I may not be a perfect christian but I do like to think of it as a continual journey.   I can’t really say where I’d end up but I do know that ever since I was a small boy, I have always like technology and I know in todays churches we are always going to see Ipads, Iphones, and other tablets that are used in looking up Bible  (Affiliate Link)passages and thus will always be in need of Christian Tech support.

Our Present is Upon us!

When I ask myself what I am expecting to do in the coming years, I always am looking at what I am doing now.   It doesn’t matter what I am doing but it is something that will affect me tomorrow and the next day.   I know I will never be perfect but I’m not going to create a post that no one will want to read but it will be a interesting journey to what I have learned over the years.   I also feel like I want to be a writer but am unsure of how to better accomplish this.   I guess God is calling me to do something but I have yet to figure out all the details but I do know this blog will be a big step in the right direction.

Our Future is yet determined!

I really don’t know what the future will hold but I am going to take it as it comes.   I can’t say anything else but that.   Do you know your future?  Are you ready for it? These are all questions that we are constantly asking.

Yes you can see this is a test to find out the problems and or recommendations to get a podcast going for this church.  I’m using you to test this out.  I want to know if you like it/hate it or just don’t care.  I’d also like to know if the sound quality is good, what I might do differently, if any?   You see, I’m planning on creating a podcast feed outside of this blog for just there sermons for the congregation to see or anyone else but before we go that far.  I am needing to see how well this works with podpress.  So if you want to hear more, please email me and I’ll be more than glad to put you on the email list once it is finally finished.  You can find my email address from the about me page.
