Ideally, the father would ask all the sticky questions during the initial interview or during any ongoing meetings. I don’t think a father should ask such things unless his daughter is interested (in the young man). Otherwise, it is unnecessary and intrusive. If no dad is involved, sometimes another man is covering for him, an elder, an uncle, or a friend of the family.

I do have a question after rereading it. When saying that we should have questions about his sexual history, how does a young lady approach such a topic when in conversation with a man ? How can it be approached w/o being inappropriate and crossing lines ? To be honest, I would have no idea how to ask a man something like that in a manner that wouldn’t lead to stumbling blocks.

Wow, sis, thank you for this. A lot of kind wisdom in this entry. As a single woman who desires marriage, it’s definitely been a blessing and encouragement to read, confirming some things and reminding me of some things.

I will be reading this often.

Grace and peace,
Jenn

Yeah! At long last! A book for unmarried sisters! I’ve been looking forward to that one for a long time!

Having grown up with these ideas and philosophies, I thank you for repeating them and encouraging me. Sometimes we need reminders of what is true and right just to keep us from questioning or being tempted to “lower the standard”.

At our rehearsal dinner, my maid of honor read a list that she and I had made years before of traits we desired in a husband. She said that at the time, she had thought I was being a little picky, and maybe I should shorten my list. But the list sounded as if it had been written to describe my husband perfectly! If no one you know meets the standards you have set, then you haven’t met him yet. Only one will!

By the way, Mrs. Wilson, your use of the word “horsepower” has been making me smile ever since I read this…perhaps because I recently watched the movie “Cars” with a gang of my favorite small fry.

Or is in the process of doing so.
