Top 3 Attributes I look for in my Potential Husband: LEADERSHIP

If I was to look at myself objectively, I'd probably find that I'm a pretty capable, strong(ish) woman. A modern woman if you will. I'm career-focused, I don't depend on a man to get what I want or need and I'd rather drink beer than coffee most days. Ok, that last one doesn't mean anything significant, it just means that I'm well on my way to alcoholism.

I need a guy to have leadership above all. I need someone who is stronger than me because like Angel, I do need that security in my life. Seeing how adverse I am to most things "relationship", it had better be one strong guy who can nail me down and make me less commitment-phobic. I need someone who has control over his life (or is at least on his way), both spiritual, physical and mental. After all, who am I going to follow if not a guy who at least knows where he's going? Keep in mind that there's a difference between being IN leadership and HAVING leadership. I hate references to the Proverbs 31 woman (because I have a long way to go and she seems oh-so-very far away above me) but if I'm going to submit to a man's authority, he'd better well damn be a good man that I respect fully, admire and want to follow.

If I can beat up my husband, verbally, mentally or physically, there's a problem. I don't want a hen-pecked dude who rolls over, I want someone to bounce off, someone to inspire me, someone who I can look at and go, "Yeah, I love him, I'm so proud of him, he's going to be a good father and head of the house and he's MINE." I will happily support and follow after a man who has his goals and looks ever-forward and ever to God who is and will always have the most leadership in my own life. Most importantly, if and when I do stray from that narrow path, my husband will smack me on the head (not literally because Australia says NO) and show me the error of my ways. And I will listen.
