   This is a very good article about marrying for the wrong reason, just because he goes to church. I am glad you reviewed important aspects of marriage, like communication, respect and trust.

   I agree, Dora, that respect, communication, and trust are most important in a happy marriage. Factors like attending church and good looks are immaterial if the relationship is on shaky grounds. Thanks for sharing this valuable advice

   This is a very good article counseling and advising about marriage to church-going men. While it is true the factors that you mention to look for in a relationship are important, I also value good compatibility and body chemistry. Thank you, Dora, for sharing your helpful and informative article.

   Ms Dora...
   Such a great article.
   
   Many prople believe that if one attends church he would be a good fit, but sadly thats not always true.
   
   I have a friend who married a man from church & now her life is totally controlled.
   
   There is no trust.  No fellowship at home...its like a front for others to see them at church as a happy couple but no one knows the truth in their home.
   It's so sad.

   Dora has raised a lot of good points in her article. Love is important, but so are respect, communication, and trust when choosing a partner for life, as Dora says. Religious views should be discussed as well before a couple marry. It’s important to be honest about them.

   An excellent article full of good advice, MsDora. Just because a man goes to church does not guarantee he will be the perfect husband.

    Dear Dora, this is my life. I fell in love with a dear friend. We worked together and formed a relationship of trust, communication, and respect. When we became lovers I knew that even though he was not a believer, we could make a happy life together. We had two baby girls and that was the start. He respected me enough and loved them enough that he didn't want them to wonder "why doesn't daddy go to church with us?"
    
    So, he did. He sat, he heard, and he listened. And after 5 (long for me) years, he believed.

    Thanks, Ms. Dora, for posting this very good article. I found this to be very true many years ago when I was between marriages. I dated a man who went to church every Sunday. He sang in the choir and was very active in the church. He was also the brother of a very respected man who was a fellow college student when I was a freshman, so I thought I knew the family. As it turned out, he was just passing through the local single women and dated them as long as their liquor cabinet held out. Since I was a single mom struggling to raise my two sons, mine didn't hold out very long so our relationship was short lived. When I expressed my disappointment in how things were, he admitted that he only went to church because he liked to sing. He had a beautiful voice. But at least I didn't have time to fall in love with him. So single women need to look beyond the Christian trappings to see what's actually in the heart.
