Absolute waste of spiritual time and…
Absolute waste of spiritual time and money! I'm writing a review on CM a year later. The temptation to find a spouse "online Catholic" is stupid. How often do us ladies of moral virtue want to find a husband and end up disappointed? A friend of mine found her husband by a non-Catholic site and she will be marrying him later this year. She confided in me how unsure she was of the marriage becasue he wasn't a Catholic. He's now a Catholic after a year of dating but she met him online. And you become who your friends' are as the saying goes. I wanted to have a blessing like she did but as a result? No. The absolute worse thing any woman can do is believe she will find her husband online. I only recently reconnected with another gentleman who has known our family for 17 years. His name is Andrew and after the failure of Catholic Match and Christian Mingle, along with those two Catholic men who FAILED my expectations, there's hope. Unless God says differently - Andrew is one of the most remarkable men I have known because in a previous review - I wrote my husband would calm me - Andrew did that no too long ago and rather than me exploding - I was so calm all I wanted to do was remain as calm as Our Blessed Mother was beside St. Joseph. So it goes to prove associating with strangers online isn't the most peaceful feeling then when you reconnect with someone you already know. Andrew comes from a family of 9 and he's quite a character. Previously too I was with male friends who didn't encourage me in the spiritual area. Which caused injury but Andrew encouraged me to return to other Sacraments by his example. I'm actually extremely anger with Catholic Match. Years ago they were accurate but no one can "match" a couple up except God alone. I feel better knowing I reconnected with someone I know rather than a stranger online. And you need to remember, ladies and gentlemen: marry the family and not the peers. I've seen marriages where they married for the peers pleasure but when they married the family? Another door opens and goodness knows how you would interact with the parents or other relatives. My piece of advice is NEVER marry for the sake of the peers. You'll end up disappointed and not happy. Worse if you marry either a father or mother in law who is controlling.. Andrew doesn't do that and he's barely controlling. He has his own mind and can figure things out on his pleasant Andrew self. Yes. I'm talking about someone who I know because when you're with someone you know you become yourself. As Jason Evert once said - Chase after God and after a while of running turn to the side and see who's running beside you. I kind of feel this way with Andrew. So I'm going to say it in a stubborn manner : Told you so! Catholic match you completely stink! Man I feel better with God's plan rather than my own! Waste your time on a person you don't know, ladies and gentlemen as well as your spiritual time and money! 100 dollars a month and no communication isn't worth it. God bless!
