David Speaks On How He Knew

Wedding Anniversary Date: September 4, 2006

How he knew his wife was the one for him:

“After not wanting to be monogamous after a terrible relationship in the past, I prayed for an absolute answer. I didn't want to be a player anymore, because it was getting boring--- for me it was too easy to meet women and because of my intellect it was too easy to get what I wanted. I was totally honest, simple and plain... and I gave up on all women for a certain point in time.

Then, by surprise, my wife approached me. We dated for awhile and two years later, I realized God gave me exactly what I asked forand needed in a woman. ASK AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN UNTO YOU. ”

What he loves about her mind: As I grew older, I had to learn exactly what I wanted in a mate...better yet what I needed because sometimes that differs. I love her smarts because she's a thinker, and she really avoids making major mistakes.

What he loves about her body: Her looks are more than enough to keep my attention---no matter who may enter the room.

What he loves about her spirit: She's a person who doesn't speak unless spoken to...as myself. We are both reserved and quiet-spirited...and Christian-minded .

David's advice to single men about marriage:

“To the single guys that may feel like they are ready for marriage know this: I feel that you must learn to become exactly what it is that you want from someone else before you place yourself in someone's life. If you like an honest person - become that. If you like a hard working person-become that. Your actual traits are what's important to a marriage longevity.”
