I recently pursued a Christian woman and she let me know politely she wasn't interested. I accepted that, talked to her a little after that, but now in church she sits away from me. That's her choice, i hold no resentment to her, but i consider the loss to be hers. Any lady that turns away i don't take it personally anymore, i just go oh well, moving on. And i do.
That’s how I am what else can she do but say no? Just consider that as a blessing like a bank loan rejection life’s what you make it too b been there done that
Your maturity is shining a light on her immaturity. It's so immature and unattractive when people feel like they need to behave that way. You're not allowing her behavior to make you bitter towards women shows strength and preserverance which a mature woman will pick up on. Blessings to you.
Strive1324l: Then please don't try to sit next to or more or less close to her anymore in order not to make her feel uncomfortable or a little stalked. Just focus on your spiritual growth and in your goals.
@ver-il6pc That's not my style, or behavior. Stalkers are cuckoo birds, and insecure people. I move on when no interest is shown, life is short. I only hang around if she shows an interest and we both can talk to one another. If one stops talking, then that's different. No answer is an answer.
Similar happened with me. She used to ignore me for no reason a couple Sundays after she let me know she wasn't interested. Then I started ignoring her because I don't like it if someone is mean to me for no reason. Now she sometimes walks up to me to small talk and sits in my vicinity. Although I don't resent her or anything, I don't want anything to do with her more than a platonic friendship.
This video reminds me of a line in the movie 'Airplane' in which a woman says "I can't be with a man I don't respect" and that line has been the single biggest factor in realizing the nature of women. If she doesn't respect you, then she won't love you like you want her to love you
“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.” ― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
A Christian woman will respect a man ego is. Slow too speak quick too listen wise as a serpent harmless as a dove. A Christian woman respects a Godly man who don’t act like her girlfriends
We all like to be respected in our relationships, but I know that to gain a deep respect from another person, I must earn it by my behavior over a period of time. Respect should be reciprocal and without it being mutual it's a dead end street, and you'll go nowhere fast in your relationships. The scriptures encourage us to speak the truth in love, and love seeks not it's own way but that which is best for the other person. If we owe anything to someone, we owe them the unvarnished truth. So being honest is a great way to show respect for a person you're interested in, well at least it's a beginning!
It seems you can't have outward respect from other people, without respecting yourself first. So respect like all good things starts inside ourselves & works it's way outward to other people. Get the inner man right & the outer man will take care of itself!
This is good and all but remember. You as a man shouldn’t follow these five steps in order to attract women. God should be in your heart and mind first at all times and he will lead you to where you need to be and who you need to be with. He is the best matchmaker.
Exactly. Human carefulness would never have been able to match Ruth and Boaz. If God wants to make something happen, then no amount of human carelessness and cringiness can stop it.
Yes. If we find ourselves without food, we still have Jesus christ. If we are homeless, we still have Jesus Christ. If we end up abandoned,homeless,sick, we still have our hope in Jesus Christ. Philippians 4:11-13 King James Version 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Number 5 is huge.....I've done it, we've all probably done (ie. approached a woman and be SCARED to the point of shaking...she picks up on this instantly...not good).....best technique I've read on this point is to take baby steps and take the pressure off! eg. first time just think "all I want to do here is say hi and smile" (easy... done!)....2nd time you see her, "exchange names", that's all....3rd time, try to see if she's open to hanging out/ coffee/ whatever.....problems come when most guys try to do it all first time! WAY too much pressure.....Break it down into small pieces, much much less pressure....Hope that helps guys :)
Not only women ( both unconverted and converted ) but people in general as well disrespect you when you don't respect yourself ( Even if you respect them. That's fine but you also need to respect yourself ). One example of not respecting yourself: Abusing joking. Saying dumb things all the time.
So what does honoring your mother and father look like, if they abused you? Does that mean you never talk about them (good or bad), talk to them, visit them or take care of them in old age but say "these are my parents and this is how/why I have no contact with them"? The term honoring is pretty vague, without an explanation.
Peace be unto you. It is something like these scriptures... Ephesians 6:1-4 King James Version 6 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. 2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; 3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth. 4 And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Colossians 3:23-24 King James Version 23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. Matthew 7:12 King James Version 12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets. Matthew 5:43-45 King James Version 43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; 45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. Luke 10:25-37 King James Version 25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? 27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself. 28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. 29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour? 30 And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. 31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. 33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, 34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. 35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. 36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? 37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
Let your Godly actions speak loudly and be a witness to them. Do not repay eye for an eye but do everything for the Lord. After all, no parents come with a manual or guidebook. They could be broken themselves and broken people break others. However, without them, you are not here to speak so you honor them regardless, because it is God's command
I can confirm that godly women that you can enter into a relationship with respect and love for each other do exist. I met one during first year of college over 7 years ago now through Church, and she was my first genuine connection and I was hers after several failed relationships. We both knew that we wanted to be with each other in a relationship but knew the circumstances weren’t favorable. We respected, trusted, and challenged each other to grow during our time together. But when the time came for us to split up I wanted what was best for her. We talked with each other and we mutually decided to split up with her transferring out and hopefully meeting up again one day. It wasn’t easy for me to make and for her to respect the decision to let her go and not strain the relationship because we both didn’t know how to properly manage a long term and long distance relationship at the time.
I don’t pursue women. I just already assume they’re going to reject me unless she’s really toxic and wants to just take advantage of me for whatever reason and I just assume that I’m going to be single for life. So I just leave them alone because that’s the best thing for me to do instead annoying them or making them uncomfortable.
Also, if women will reject a man who has teh slightest amount of fear asking ehr out, it's no wonder abusive narcissists keep getting and ruining women.
@@aidan9656 Yes, but they say, "No," and complain there are no good men out there. Why? Because they always think they can do better. Look up hypergamy.
How do you guys feel about disrespect in the workplaces?? I tend not to engage any of it because i dont want to fight the whole world on a daily basis. My reasoning being that if i square up with one why would i not square up with all?? I work in the restaurant industry btw if anyone knows how crasy that industry is..
I work in fast food. Some people are just disrespectful. Bosses, Co-Workers, Customers. Just have to work on having a Christ confirmed mindset and being gentle hearted with them. And not take things personally. People go through a lot under the surface. Being gentle with those who are rude isn't weakness. It's strength under control.
Thanks for your teachings, Mark, but let me recommend a good website. A man named Sumner Wemp has great Godly information regarding dating and marriage. He passed away in 2012, but his site is still running. It's named after him.
Been wondering about this thing. What are your thoughts on if you had a relationship with a woman who had some godly qualities and showed some mutual interest, but wasn’t necessarily a self-professing Christian, would that be worth pursuing? Especially if you are relative new in your Christian walk and hoping to get married young?
I’m a female and agree with everything he said! Stay strong men, don’t let masculine women discourage you from pursuing marriage. There are truly godly women out there! Watch out for so called “Christian” women who are just liberal feminists
He’s married he knows what he’s talking about. A man without respect for himself is nothing more than a pushover doormat women don’t like guys like that. That’s like building your house on sand knowing good and well the ocean will take your house if you don’t watch it.

@@ver-il6pc Yes well said! Respecting yourself also means having clear & healthy boundaries that you'll not give up just to have a relationship with someone. If a woman made fun of my love for music for example I would end the conversation politely and not engage with this woman anymore. It also has to do with your level of maturity & have you gotten healed of any trauma, grief, or loss. Becoming a whole man spirit, soul, and body is essential for having a good relationship with a woman or any person you would like in your life!
@@johnmckenna1776 Exactly. It is necessary to establish boundaries and not being over-nice not only to christian women but to people in general as well. If you don't, they tread on you.

That would be using him as a texting buddy. In sum, there can be more different ways a woman shows disrespect to a guy in a subtle way.

No it's unbiblical they have to be a believer no matter how tempting it is brother you should not be unequally yoked
If you’re relatively new to the faith, all the more you would need somebody in a relationship who’s mature in the faith to guide you.
Mark how do you know that this will cause women to respect you.
If anything, it will let you know whether the woman is worth pursuing if she does not respect you after how you handle such tests.
It’s Female nature & he’s on point with this teaching.

- This is correlated to the previous example: Using the guy when she feels bored and lonely until meeting someone else she thinks is a better offer/option
- When she wants to chat with him on the phone but she is never interested in meeting him somewhere to have a conversation in person. That would be using him as a texting buddy.
In sum, there can be more different ways a woman shows disrespect to a guy in a subtle way.
Up until you said to pursue her....
