Are my standards to high when it comes to men?

Great, you are supposed to have a list with 5 things that are deal breakers for you. I am thinking that A and E sound similar, maybe you need to add one more deal breaker to your list. You are supposed to have deal breakers so you don't waste your time or his. I would caution on the Christian thing, don't assume someone that goes to church every week and sits in a pew is a Christian. (That is a major mistake I made) There is nothing wrong with your list, just stick to it and don't date anyone who doesn't fit your deal breakers. You are very smart, stick to your list, no exceptions. There is no value in marriage these days, you need the deal breaker list to protect yourself. Of course there is no guarantee that if you find a man who fits your criteria, that he will be a decent person. You also run the risk of just liking a man because he fits your list and not because of him. Life is just tricky, there are not guarantees. So be careful no matter who you date.
