E harmony and a lot of the singles sites have a very narrow questionnaire to find you want you want.

 

you ever seen 7 brides for seven brothers? thats how you do it when tshtf lol

 

and its simple find someone with simaler belifs.. and you get along with..

 

In most areas of the midwest, I would suggest that you look for a farm girl. Some one with the brains and the initiative to study Animal Science or Vet Medicine at the local land grant university (LSU?) should have potential. Then start looking for one that shoots and hunts and knows how to cook.

Club them

Then drag them by the hair.

Sorry I just could not resist.

DISCLAIMER: my answers to this thread are largely a joke..... Sort of...

1- How should a survivalist look for in a spouse?
with his eyes.

2- Now what do you do?
now i drink and pretty much do whatever i want. before, i used to work. i'm over that.

3- Why is it important to have a survivalistic spouse?
it's not. not to me anyway. my wife will either survive or not. i might survive or not. whatever happens, i'll take it from there.

hope that helps.

Loki the Scot: I am sorry I can not help I have been with my bride sense I was your age. I am 62 now. Good luck

 

if you walk into a coffee shop and see this, make the move...

 

Now if her fingernails were camo'ed, that'd be the ultimate "How yew dewin'" scenario..lol.

 

You talking about a spouse/partner before or after TEOTWAWKI???

Big difference.

All the good'un's are currently taken.

Afterwards, if you look fat and sassy (not prison camp survivor thin), then finding suitables should be easier. Just make sure to stock all the needables a woman would want...

 

I think you might be surprised how often you will come across like-minded individuals in the most surprising ways, often without any effort on your part.

For some reason I seem to gravitate to the survivalists in any situation....don't know what it's like in your part of the woods though.

FYI, I'm 17, female, and on the other side of the country from you, and no I'm not looking to pursue a relationship.....but thought you might like to hear from the target audience

One of my most important criteria for a spouse is a survival-oriented mindset....this often manifests itself as non-mainstream political views....basically not being 'one of the herd'.

And as to why it's important to have a survivalist spouse, well it's something I've never questioned....just seems common sense. Bugging out on your own is mighty hard (at least for a girl), and a spouse tends to have deeper loyalties (one would hope) than friends/other family members. If TSHTF, you are going to want to have a supportive partner....I don't like the idea of teaching/learning survival skills on the fly. Nor would I recommend actively trying to find a partner in the midst of chaos....the usual stresses associated with survival would I suppose preclude this.

Oh and make sure you actually >love< whoever you marry, don't just go for someone because they can hunt or cook or whatever....in the end that will be more important.

I was just reading 1984...you notice it's only after Winston Smith meets Julia that he decides he still wants to live.....guess what I'm trying to say is, Yes it's important to not go it alone, for a lot of reasons. And Yes look for a survivalist, she is out there somewhere :thumb:

yours in Christ,

Loki, I think you have a great idea and are on to something. May I suggest that you start a survivalist-type Match.com website so that single survivlaists can benefit and so that you can prosper financially from your idea.

SurvivalistSingles.com !

 

Just remember what old W. C. Fields said:

"Marry an outdoors woman. Then if you throw her out into the yard on a cold night, she can still survive."
W. C. Fields
1880-1946

and if you don't know who WC is then your edgemacation was a lacking

 

Your spouse is supposed to possess the qualities you lack, so that together, you make a better team, than either one of you could do alone........plus there needs to a sexual attraction........but you need to have the same moral values.

 

can'nt really give you a good answer my wife has this thing about me dating. lol

 

Stay Single

 

Don't pass up a good girl with good values because she doesnt have a lot of survival skills. It is most rewarding to be able to teach her and mold her too:thumb:

 

you hound you... :thumb:

 

Well, all I gotta say is that they did not have soilders like this when I was in the army.

World war I and II would have been lost if we had soilders like the pix.

why, cause there is not one American woman that would have sent her man off to fight in a fox hole with a soilder like this.

later
