WOW, I like what you said about a wife on 104.5 I'm in Dallas, Texas. Man I'm so impressed by your spirit of wanting a woman who has Jesus first and foremost that is prosperous and who is worthy of being a precious woman who God has created for you. I've been a widow since I was 22yrs young and I can count on one hand how many men I shared my body with. I'm 57yrs.young,and widowed. I lost my late husband who was 23yrs.young in the Army. And our son was a baby 8 months. And he doesn't know him.

I was excited for the topic but this one was just a little too all over the place for me. I love Dear Future Wifey but this one didn’t seem to ever hit the point. Though I didn’t make it past 45 min, I gave it a good try. Sometimes guest need to be directed? Fun mom and daughter duo though!! Doesn’t seem toxic. I had a toxic childhood due to alcoholism and mental health issues (mom) so this is such a good topic to help others that went through battles with their parents for things they couldn’t help.
