For the Ladies.. Does he respect you?

A mother was speaking to her young adult son's girlfriend {long tinz,sorry :-) }and she said to her that she knew her son was going to spend the night in her house and she asked the girl about sleeping arrangements et al..

Then she asked in the most polite way "I hope he's respecting you?"

Now you and I know that it was her way of asking a question that she didn't feel was in her place to ask directly seeing as she was speaking to another person's child - an 'advanced' teenager at that (This is the UK and we are Y2K-13 compliant).

While I admire her for daring to ask, I also pay particular attention to the word she used 'respect'.

I know it sounds very old-fashioned but it still remains true.

One of the ways a guy shows his respect for you is his willingness to respect your body and wait with you for marriage before sex.



I want to be with a man who respects my now and my later so much that he chooses to deny himself and wait until he has put a ring on my finger and can gratify (or we gratify each other :-) ) all he wants lawfully, legally, consensually and most importantly, God-ly.

A man who respects my destiny and the God that I serve.

So borrowing the wise words of this mum "I hope he is respecting you?"

PS it's vice versa as well... Do you respect his destiny and purpose enough to wait until marriage?
