The audience in the video is somewhat younger than the audience to which we often cater here at PreEngaged; however, the principles still apply. In this video, Eric Ludy talks to a group of girls about how to tell when a guy is worthy to pursue her. This video is challenging for both men and women as it presents a standard for men to reach and a standard for women to not accept anything less than it. Let us know what you think in the comments! (My apologies for the video quality; however, the audio is perfectly fine.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTnCvrBexNk … [Read more...]

I remember being young and shy. I remember not knowing what to say to the girls who made my heart flutter. I remember the nervousness I had when talking to them or calling them on the phone. So, at that time, was I ready for a dating relationship? No, I wasn't. Why is that...? Women who I've talked to in discussing what they are looking for in a mate said that they wanted a strong man, a man of integrity, a man who has a sense of purpose and direction, someone who wants to provide for his wife, is willing to work hard, and a man who will fight for what is right.
