Just want to hear your thoughts:

Good girl, good Christian values, attractive, but some things bothered me about her:

- When there's a problem at work, it always seems to be the fault of coworkers or a boss
- 40 years old and her most serious relationship was 2 years, not married, no children
- Seemed to be very judgmental of ex-boyfriend for not buying her an iPad (they weren't married)
- Critical about another guy because he didn't offer to pay her rent when he complained she doesn't make enough
- Seems to be negative about people with a different political opinion or spiritual belief; acts like the different political opinion is just terrible (your political opinions do not disqualify you or make you a bad person)
- Doesn't seem to be willing to see a different political viewpoint
- Would not attend another church I went to one time (probably because she thinks the church is too liberal)
- Seemed more interested in my employee benefits than me as a person
- The political opinions made it feel like she is too judgmental or critical to be able to reason with
- Seemed to want to talk and see me when she wanted and was less flexible when I offered alternative times to meet up
- Most conversations were about what she didn't like about an opposing political viewpoint, what she didn't like about work.

With a list as long as my arm of things you don’t like about her and you’re still on the fence?

Jeez, you have to ask??? Kind of reminds me of those women who say "my boyfriend hits me but he says he loves me".....

Somehow I doubt the pros and cons list is going to balance out too well. Either that or you are spending an awful lot of time trying to justify something. Took a lot of energy to write out that list OP.

She's probably perfect for a guy who shares her same views and lifestyle. A lid for every pot.

I think you need to exercises those wings Mr. Bird.

Pretty extensive list of things that don't make her look and sound all that great and yet still be able pull down a "good girl" rating.

Trust your instinct. If she has numerous demands BEFORE you get involved/married, imagine how the list will only grow once she has a ring and legal marriage license.

Just think long and hard before you make a commitment....

What do you actually like about her? Personally I question the values, Christian or otherwise, of someone who sounds like they don't take responsibility for much of anything and she also sounds like a money grubber to me.

I'm curious...how long have you known this woman? Is all this stuff things that have been revealed over time, or did you have a question and answer session, where you asked the questions, and she answered the questions? And was all this online, or in person?


I feel like it makes a difference.
