Depending upon who you speak with and (exactly as you stated) what stage of life the sister is in, you will get all types of answers to this question. Personally, I have reached a point in my life where I am intersted in a man who can add to my life (not make my life). I realize that I need a man to bring things to the table that can enhance me and my life (not make me and my life). For example, I have completed an undergraduate degree, I have worked for the school system for 3 years, and presently, I started grad school full time. I do not need a man that cannot help me with study techniques, help me come up with a better budget plan, or help encourage me through graduate school. I'm not interested in incorporating a "dangerous" brother in my life. I encounter enough danger by just walking in the city, riding in my car, or catching a weekend flight from state to state. The last thing I need is danger up close and personal in a relationship.

Hello.... I am in total agreement Supermodel1908.. I do not want a so-called "dangerous" man. Yes, at certain points in one's life we all have a certain type of person we want to be with. But as we get older, we mature. At least most of us do. I want a man who is going to be there, honest, dependable, loving, etc. I want to be able to be with someone where we both take care of one another. I am not into playing games or into silliness, I have come too far in my life to even accept those things. I have an undergradute degree and will have my Juris Doctor in 6 months. And not to say that my degrees will define what type of man I want, I just want men to know I am about my business and being about my business includes having a man who take me seriously, and who will have all those qualities that a classy, strong man has..And just to add, Eric Jerome Dickey's books are off the chain.
