It’s a PERFECT match!

Every girl dreams of having a perfect date. Some women would love to have a candle-lit dinner for two by the beach or in a restaurant overlooking the city. Other girls would appreciate a home-cooked meal prepared by the guy they really like – whether or not the dinner is delicious. Others would be happy with a movie date and then grab take-out after. But these perfect date scenarios aren't complete without that perfect man sitting across from her at the dinner table or the boy cuddling with her on the soft couch. Black Christian women are no different from women the world over of every race and religion in that they dreams of going out on their version of the perfect date with the perfect man. Here are some of the things we look for in a man.

· He is a believer in GOD. Being romantically involved with a man who shares the same faith as we do makes it a whole lot easier to build a relationship together, whether it develops into friendship or something more than that. If two people are drawn together in GOD, no man can tear them apart. Dating a man who also believes in God opens new doors of starting a new life together showered with God’s blessings.

· He is a man of his word. We want to be involved with a man who will stick up for what he believes in. It is very important that a man, in spite of the simplicity or difficulty of a given situation, is able to keep his word. This indicates that in the future if the relationship becomes serious and leads to marriage, he will keep the promise that the two of you will make together in front of God.

· He knows honesty is the best policy. Some people make think that it is too much to ask for honesty from the first date since the relationship clearly isn't serious at that point, but the truth is that there’s no such thing as too early -- only too late. The first date is a getting-to-know-you date, so making it comfortable for your date to openly ask questions regarding things about which they're curious will endear you to her. Further, when a man can openly talk about himself to you, it is safe to say that he is giving you and him a possibility.

· He is a dreamer! The perfect match is always somebody who can dream with you and who has the potential to make those dreams come true. A dreamer in a man means hope in that man that in one way or another, he will strive to make way for a better life.
