Are single ladies supposed to do the searching or just wait to be found / searched out?
Are single ladies supposed to go out and find their ideal man, or they should just keep on waiting for different men to come along, out of which they’ll finally choose which one is their ideal.
I then remembered the passage of the Bible which says: “Seek and Ye shall find”. I suppose those Words do not apply to only “spiritual issues” or perhaps just to daily needs like food, clothing and shelter.
It also crossed my mind, that in some Christian Churches, women are supposed to take the back seat – with so many Bible verses usually used to back up the ‘keep quiet and be sober because God created you as a woman’ doctrine.
But I also remembered that from the little stories we(I) heard, in the days of our parents, t’was the men that did the searching. In fact, for some of them, their parents did the pairing together(bethrowal / child marriage), and these kids grew up to understand that “she is my wife”, and “I will marry her when we are years old”. I wondered if our grand-parents knew the definition of “Falling in Love”. Perhaps they did / didn’t, since their own parents might have bethrowed them to one another. So the cycle could have continued on and on.
Whats wrong if a single lady does the searching? whats right if she doesn’t?
